In a business context, ESG is defined as the use of environmental, social, and governance factors to assess a firm's progress in terms of sustainability. Social media has enabled the public to actively share firms' good and/or bad deeds, increasing public interest in ESG management. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association of firm performances with the respective sentiments towards each of environmental, social, and governance activities, as well as comprehensive ESG sentiments, which encompass all environmental, social, and governance sentiments. This study used panel regression models to examine the relationship between social media ESG sentiment and the Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE) of 143 companies listed on the KOSPI 200. We collected data from 2018 to 2021, including sentiment data from a variety of social media channels, such as online communities, Instagram, blogs, Twitter, and other news. The results indicated that firm performance is significantly related to respective ESG and comprehensive ESG sentiments. This study has several implications. By using data from various social media channels, it presents an unbiased view of public ESG sentiment, rather than relying on ESG ratings, which may be influenced by rating agencies. Furthermore, the findings can be used to help firms determine the direction of their ESG management. Therefore, this study provides theoretical and practical insights for researchers and firms interested in ESG management.

The purpose of this study was to suggest implications for improving training performance by studying how the capacity of IPP workers and the characteristics of training programs affect the training performance through social support of employees. The study was conducted by distributing the online questionnaire to 270 IPP learning worker(of 9 university). As a result, it was found that the characteristics of the learning worker and the characteristics of training programs were positively related to the social support of the employees, and their social support was positively related to the training performance. The results of this study can contribute to the training performance when used as reference materials for selection of trainees and participating companies and development and operation of training courses. However, the limitation of this study is that the objectivity of the result is rather low by deriving the response centered on the recognition of the learning workers. In future studies, it is necessary to increase the objectivity of the results through three-dimensional cross-checks with training participants.

기업의 사회적 책임에 대한 요구가 높아짐에 따라 기업의 지속 가능 경영 보고서 발간은 증가 추세를 보이고 있다. 그러나 이전까지의 연구는 지속가능성 및 기업의 재무적, 비재무적 연관성에 초점이 맞춰져 있었으며, 전통적인 토픽 모델링 기법만을 제한적으로 사용한다는 한계를 보였다. 본 연구에서는 Transformer 기반의 맥락을 고려한 토픽 모델링 기법을 도입하여 다양한 이해관계자 측면에서 이용 가능한 25 개의 주제를 도출하였다. 또한 동적 토픽 모델링(Dynamic Topic Modeling)을 통해 주제의 변화를 시계열적으로 파악했다.

This study is a theoretical study on philosophical thinking for examining the idea of the corporate social responsibility(CSR) of a company. The oriental philosophical thought is to understand the contents of social responsibility of the corporation centering on Mozi's philosophy, which stresses that people should care for everyone equally. In the Western philosophical thought, we tried to understand the contents of corporate social responsibility by focusing on utilitarian thought. It is not merely an actual principle or a moral principle, but a comprehension for mutual benefit. In conclusion, it can be concluded that universal love's approach through the gangbang has many similarities with the realization of the greatest happiness of the number that is uttered in utilitarian thinking. In this way, a sustainable competitiveness of corporations can be achieved through universal love and utilitarian philosophical understanding and practice for the cognition of social responsibility.

이 글은 한국의 대표적인 기계산업 집적지인 창원 지역에서 최근 급증하고 있는 제조업 해외직접투자의 유형과 그것이 지역 산업에 미치는 영향을 탐구하고 있다. 분석은 생산의 해외전개가 지역 고용에 '어떠한' 영향을 '어떻게' 미치는지 그 기제와 문제점을 조명하는 데 주안점을 두고 있다. 창원의 해외직접투자는 대기업뿐만 아니라 중소기업이 투자 주체가 되어 중국을 중심으로 한 아시아지역을 대상으로 급속도로 늘어나고 있다. 해외직접투자는 지역제조업체들을 글로벌 생산네트워크로 편입하고 사회적 분업체제를 개편하고 있다. 해외투자의 급증으로 지역내 투자는 부진하나 그럼에도 불구하고 산출과 고용이 성장세를 유지하고 있고, 지역수준에서 제조업 공동화가 발생했다고 할 수는 없다. 그러나 저임활용을 겨냥한 생산의 해외전개 추세가 지속된다면 업종별 공동화의 우려가 현실화될 가능성이 있다. 생산의 해외전개는 원하청기업간 관계에서 기술력이 부족한 중소하청업체들에 대하여 단가 인하의 압력을 가중시키고, 노동자들에게는 고용불안, 임금 등 근로조건을 저하시키는 방향으로 사회적 분업의 개편을 가져온다.
