Companies should be accountable for the impact of their activities on society and/or the environment
CSR Benefits
There are many definitions available for Corporate Social Responsibility. We like the definition given by Mallen Baker of Business Respect for its simplicity:
“CSR is about how companies manage the business processes to produce an overall positive impact on society.”
Directors of UK companies need to be able to demonstrate consideration for CSR issues in their decision processes. The environmental impact of a business is a key CSR consideration and the way waste is managed an important factor.
We believe that being able to demonstrate good CSR practices across a business has benefits going far beyond meeting an obligation. It forms part of your company’s image, motivates staff, attracts business and keeps customers loyal.
