Corporate Social Responsibility (Englishen_US)

Corporate social responsibility, or “corporate citizenship,” is a form of self-regulation by which firms engage in practices that ameliorate the effect of its activities on the environment and/or social welfare. It can be limited to compliance with legal, international, or ethical standards (“the spirit of the law”), or can act as an institutional conscience whereby the firms acts directly to create a positive impact on the environment, consumers, employees, stakeholders, and other members of the public.
