In today's socially conscious environment, employees and customers appreciate a business that prioritizes corporate social responsibility (CSR).
CSR is an evolving business practice that integrates sustainable development into a company’s business model. It has an overall positive impact on social, economic and environmental factors.
In a recent study by Deloitte, 93 percent of business leaders said they believe companies are not just employers, but guardians of society. On top of that, 95 percent reported they intending to take greater positions on important issues in the upcoming year and to spend resources on socially responsible initiatives.
Business is about more than just making money. As economic inequality, and other major problems impact communities worldwide, companies are encouraged to pay attention to social issues and contribute to the greater society.
