한국 정부는 기술기반 창업 및 벤처기업의 육성에 노력하고 있으며, 다양한 지원 정책은 생존율 개선에 집중하고 있다. 이와 함께, 기업의 기본가정인 계속기업의 가정을 위한 지속가능경영을 가능하게 하는 전략적 수단의 발굴 또한 중요하다. 국내·외 연구에서 기업의 지속가능경영을 위하여 기업의 사회적 책임(Corporate social responsibility, 이하 CSR)을 주요 전략 수단으로 제시하고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 CSR 활동이 벤처기업에 적용이 가능한지에 대한 실증분석을 시도한 탐색적 연구이다. 기존의 선행연구들은 대기업 중심, 설문조사 중심의 연구가 진행되었으며 기업의 특성을 반영하지 못한 한계점이 존재한다. 기존 선행연구의 한계점을 보완하고, 의미있는 시사점을 제안하기 위하여 본 연구는 정부승인통계 원시자료를 기반으로 벤처기업을 대상으로 하여 기업의 성장단계를 고려한 연구를 진행하였다. 2018 벤처기업정밀실태조사 원데이터를 기반으로 국내 벤처기업의 성장단계를 구분하여 성장단계 별 CSR 활동이 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 자료포락분석 (Data envelopment analysis, 이하 DEA)살펴보았다. 분석결과, 창업기 및 초기성장기에서는 CSR 활동이 경영성과에 영향을 미치지 못하고 있음이 발견되었다. 고도성장기 부터 적극적인 CSR 활동을 수행한 기업이 CSR 활동을 하지 않은 기업과 비교하여 경영성과가 우수한 것을 확인하였다. 마지막으로, 고도성장기 부터 벤처기업의 규모효율성은 CSR을 하지 않았을 때 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 벤처기업의 CSR 활동이 고도성장기 이후 경영성과에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 규명한 진취적인 연구이며, 관련 정책 및 현업 의사결정자들에게 CSR 활동이 경영성과 제고에 도움을 줄 수 있는 전략적 방안임을 제안한데에 그 의의가 존재한다.

본 연구의 목적은 CSR활동 여부를 확인하고, CSR활동과 경영성과 사이의 영향관계를 알아보고자 하는 것이다. 구체적으로 SRI지수에 편입한 기업을 CSR활동 기업으로 파악하고, SRI지수 편입공시에 따라 기업의 경영성과(재무적성과, 기업가치)에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 실증분석 하였다. 분석결과, 기업의 SRI지수 편입공시는 기업가치(Tobin's Q)에 유의한 양(+)영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났지만, 재무적 성과(ROA)에는 유의한 영향을 미치지 못했다. 따라서 기업의 경영자 및 이해관계자들에게 CSR활동을 비용보다는 투자로서 인식될 근거를 제시하였다는 시사점을 제공한다. 향후연구에서는 본 연구와 선행연구들을 바탕으로 경영자가 CSR활동에 참여하는 의도에 대한 연구가 이루진다면 보다 의미 있을 것이라 판단된다.

This study examines how corporate social responsibility (CSR) affects corporate tax avoidance behavior. Using a sample of publicly listed U.S. firms, we find that legal CSR-which is required by law-reduces the level of corporate tax avoidance because this type of CSR reduces information asymmetry between investors and corporate management in such a way that investors are less likely to perceive tax avoidance behavior as a risk. On the other hand, we find that the relationship between normative CSR-which is a voluntary type of CSR behavior-and tax avoidance is not statistically significant. Instead, our additional analysis reveals that normative CSR increases the level of corporate tax avoidance conditional on reporting quality. This study provides meaningful implications to the academic literature and to practitioners. Not only does this study highlight the fact that not all CSR are alike, it highlights that it is important to provide transparent CSR information in order to allow stakeholders to estimate the net effects of firms' CSR activities and tax payment.

Previous literature supports the importance of corporate social responsibility (CSR) by demonstrating its effects on various aspects of firm performance. However, the extent to which CSR contributes to social well-being, its original objective, has rarely been examined. The current research investigates the impact of customers' perceived CSR of service firms on customer happiness. Two studies confirm our proposition that perceived CSR increases customer happiness by enhancing perceptions of warmth and competence associated with the service company. Furthermore, we examine how the type of service moderates this effect. Specifically, we find that the indirect effects of CSR on customer happiness through perceptions of warmth and competence are stronger for credence services than for experience services. This research makes theoretical contributions to the literature on CSR, happiness, and service, and offers practical implications for marketing tactics, including fostering long-term customer relationships and monitoring the effectiveness of CSR activities and corporate budget allocations.

The aim of this research is to provide empirical evidence on the impact of CSR disclosure on earnings management and firm value. The population used in this study were all manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2018. The sample in this study was 114 companies selected through purposive sampling. The results of data analysis show that CSR has a positive effect on Firm Value. CSR disclosure is one form of activity that companies carry out in influencing their stakeholder decisions. This is by the theory that a company is not an entity that only operates for its interests, but the main objective of the company is to meet stakeholder needs. Besides, CSR has a positive effect on Earning Management. The results of this study contrary to research conducted by prior research which states that CSR can reduce earning management because CSR not only increases information transparency but also creates interaction with stakeholders. The difference in findings in this study is because CSR disclosure in Indonesia is still low, as seen from the average CSR in Indonesia, which is 33%, and it is still not transparent so that companies tend to carry out earnings management.

In the past four decades, corporate social responsibility (CSR) issues have grown substantially due to the increasing demand for transparency and growing expectations that corporations should manage and improve their social, environmental, and economic performance. As a result, most organizations, companies, and governments provide CSR reports, while a large number of companies are still engaged in defining and integrating CSR into several aspects of their business. CSR is an obligation to society (Lee, 2020). The linkage between CSR and consumer-company identification (CCI) is important under company stakeholders. Consumers who care about those issues often change their shopping habits to bring greater value to the community. They will avoid buying environmentally or socially harmful products, and actively seek the products and services of the companies that carry out social responsibility. Companies conducting CSR activities such as charity works or environmental activities will be easy to associate as a responsible organization for always meeting the necessity of society. Therefore, companies must consider CSR a long-term strategy. The strategic approach to CSR plays an increasingly significant part in the business competitiveness - which helps create companies' values while gains trust and respect from the consumers, partners in particular, and the social community in general. This study is conducted to show evidence from project-based organizations about the CSR factors that influence consumer loyalty and the impact level of those factors on customer loyalty.

Purpose - Drawing upon signaling and social identity theories, this study explores the effect of engagement in CSR activities by foreign firms on applicants' intention to apply. Furthermore, this study suggests CSR education as a moderator which strengthens the positive effects of the engagement in CSR activities on the intention to apply for potential job seekers. Research design, data, and methodology - One hundred and ninety-one undergraduate students were solicited to participate in this study. Participants were randomly assigned to two scenarios depicting different levels of a given foreign firm's engagement in CSR activities. After reading the given scenario, respondents answered a series of questions on their intention to apply to the foreign organization. Result - The results from hierarchical regression reveal that Korean applicants have a more favorable perception of a foreign firm which performs engagement in positive CSR activities. Moreover, the positive effect of the engagement in CSR activities on the intention to apply has a greater impact for Korean applicants who had CSR education. Conclusion - The result indicates that foreign firms could overcome the liabilities of foreignness and attract local talent effectively, by engaging in CSR activities. Moreover, this study suggests the important role of CSR education, and significantly contributes to the international recruiting literature.
