  • 최근 기업의 사회적 책임과 그에 따른 경영에 대한 기대와 관심은 크게 증가하고 있으나 외식기업의 사회적 책임과 관련한 소비자들의 인식에 관한 체계적인 연구와 외식 업태별 사회적 책임에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 외식기업의 사회적 책임 활동에 대한 소비자들의 인식을 조사하고, 외식 업태별로 소비자들이 기대하는 사회적 책임 활동의 유형에 차이가 있는지를 조사하고자 하였다. 연구결과 소비자들은 전반적으로 사회적 책임 활동의 필요성과 홍보의 필요성을 평균 4.08과 4.05로 강하게 인식하고 있었고, 외식기업 선택시 구매의사결정에 미치는 영향도 대체적으로 높게 나타났다. 요인 분석 결과 5개의 사회적 책임 활동 요인(자선적, 경제적, 지역문화사업, 환경보호, 소비자보호)이 추출되었다. 또한 소비자들이 기대하는 사회적 책임 활동 유형은 F값 4.616(p<0.001)으로 외식업태별로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 소비자들은 각 업태별(한식당, 패밀리 레스토랑, 패스트푸드점)로 다른 유형의 사회적 책임 활동을 기대하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • In the light of globalisation and the international division of labour, the article will stress the importance of a new conception of quality management, focusing more on the social and environmental aspects of quality in global supply chains with a particular emphasis on suppliers' perspectives. The increasing focus on corporate social responsibility, business ethics, corporate citizenship, sustainable development etc. indicates that managers have failed to see social and environmental aspects of the production as an integrated part of quality.

  • The purpose of this study was first, to examine the causes for the recent acceleration in the increase of textile/apparel waste and the current practices for reducing waste in the global textile and apparel industry; and second, to explore the influence of sustainability and social responsibility on fashion trends. Extensive literature on sustainable apparel and sustainable and socially responsible practices by global textile and apparel firms was reviewed in conducting this research. First, an accelerated fashion diffosion speed due to fast fashion was focused on as a cause for the increase in textile/apparel waste whereas mass customization was focused on as a potential solution for reducing waste. Then, the influence of the social trend toward sustainability and social responsibility on fashion trends was discussed, particularly the trends toward green products and recycled fashion, the trend against using real for or leather, and minimum-fabric-waste fashion in design and product development. This study furthers consumers' understanding of sustainability and social responsibility related to fashion trends and hopefully increases their consciousness in becoming socially responsible consumers. This study will also contribute to better decision-making in apparel and textile firms to produce sustainable fashion products.

  • This research seeks to improve the understanding of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and its advantages in the shipping sector. Recently, an improved emphasis on CSR, which incorporates environmental and social concerns into economic considerations of firms, can be found in business management and marketing literature. This is mainly because of people's increased awareness in regards to the negative consequences of corporate activities such as increased environmental pollution and gaps between the rich and the poor. According to the previous literature, it has been revealed that responsible actions by companies can generate positive outcomes in terms of financial and time aspects, but more importantly, intangible equity of the company, including improved corporate reputation, image as well as brand. As the regulation is intensifying in regards to environmental and social responsibility in the shipping sector, shipping companies are trying to engage in CSR to gain competitive advantages. While the reputation and image of shipping companies play essential roles for developing sustainable maritime transport, few studies have been conducted for how the CSR of shipping companies influence the shipping companies' reputation and image relative to other industries. In this regard, this study aims to investigate the effect of the corporate social responsibility on corporate reputation and image of shipping companies on the basis of an exploratory study in the Republic of Korea. This research would be beneficial to both academics and practitioners for developing useful CSR strategies which could promote the public's recognition of the shipping sector.

The results indicated that the role of women who served in the executive committees of companies listed on SET had a positive impact on the social and environmental responsibilities of companies listed on the SET. The Granger causality test showed that the proportion of women holding positions on the board of directors had a statistically significant relationship with CSR and ESR, which is a unidirectional relationship. Moreover, the size of the company and the return to total assets also have a positive significant relationship with the CSR and ESR.
