  • Several studies demonstrate that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming a dominant issue in both research and companies' management due to stakeholders' pressure. The identification of internal and external drivers and barriers is an initial stage of the corporate social responsibility implementation. The study aims to identify and analyze the drivers and barriers of CSR in Saudi Arabia's private organizations. For this purpose, primary data were collected using a survey questionnaire that was administered to a representative sample of companies from different sectors in Saudi Arabia. The results show that the main drivers behind the adoption of CSR among Saudi companies are improvement of corporate image, ethical/moral commitment, and to some extend customers' requirements and risk management. The findings of this study also suggest that there are important barriers hindering the adoption of corporate social responsibility. Among these, the lack of management commitment and the lack of investors' interests together with the lack of economic resources and lack of employees' competencies are the most prominent. The findings of this study not only contribute to a deeper understanding of CSR drivers and barriers, but could also encourage firms' managers and stakeholders to improve CSR activities for more effective implementation.

  • For many years, many academics and practitioners have paid attention to the increasing popularity of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and its relationship with financial performance. They have shown that creating social and sustainable responsibility can strengthen the organization's financial performance as the organization can achieve its current needs without compromising the ability to meet future needs. While much theoretical and empirical evidence has been provided to support this argument in developed countries, this topic is under-researched, and the outcomes are controversial in developing countries. Therefore, this paper aims to examine and investigate the relationship between corporate social responsibility and financial performance in Vietnamese organizations. The dataset includes 27 firms listed on the stock market exchanges in Ho Chi Minh city (HOSE) and Hanoi (HNX) from 2015 to 2019. The disclosure approach is adopted to measure corporate social activities; four areas were developed: environment, community, employee and product, customer, and supplier practices. Return on average equity (ROE) and return on average assets (ROA) are two proxies for measuring financial performance. The research results confirm the existing literature with a strong correlation between employees and returns on average assets.

  • 본 연구는 기업의 존폐가 갈리는 위기상황에서 기업이 필요한 것은 기업의 정당성이라 가정하고, 평상 시 기업의 명성 관리와 사회적 책임 활동 수행이 위기 시 기업의 정당성 확보에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 알아보기 위한 목적으로 이루어졌다. 이러한 연구 목적을 달성하기 위해서, 삼성중공업의 기름유출 사건과 이 위기를 극복하기 위해 삼성중공업이 발표한 지원대책을 분석사례로 선정하여 성인 320명을 대상으로 실험연구를 진행하였다. 이를 통해 첫째, 기업 명성이 기업의 정당성에 미치는 영향, 둘째, 기업의 사회적 책임 활동의 동기와 적합성이 기업 정당성에 미치는 영향, 그리고 기업 명성과 사회적 책임 활동에 대한 인식 간 상호작용이 기업 정당성에 미치는 영향을 밝히고자 했다. 연구 결과, 삼성중공업의 기업 명성은 위기 시 기업의 제도적 정당성에는 영향을 미치지 않지만 행동적 정당성 인식에 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 기업의 정당성에 사회적 책임 활동의 적합성은 영향을 미치는 반면, 사회적 책임 활동의 동기는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 마지막으로, 변인 간 상호작용 효과를 살펴본 결과, 기업 명성과 사회적 책임 활동의 동기 간의 상호작용 효과는 나타나지 않았고, 명성과 사회적 책임 활동의 적합성 간 상호작용 효과는 유의한 것으로 밝혀졌다. 기업 명성, 사회적 책임 활동의 동기, 사회적 책임 활동의 책임성간의 관계를 살펴본 결과, 기업의 실용적 차원 정당성에 대한 3요인 간의 상호작용효과가 나타났다. 이상의 연구 결과를 통해, 평소 명성 관리와 사회적 책임의 이행으로 공중의 요구를 충족시킨 기업의 경우 위기 상황에서도 기업 자체의 존재와 기업의 행동을 지지하고 인정하는 기업 정당성을 더 쉽게 부여받을 수 있다는 사실을 확인하였다. 즉, 기업이 위기 상황에서 기업 존재가치와 기업행위의 정당성을 확보하여 효과적으로 위기를 극복하기 위해서는 평소 꾸준한 명성 및 관계 관리와 적극적인 사회적 책임 이행이 중요하다는 것을 보여주었다.
