Because Corporate Social
Responsibility answers three fundamental questions:
|
|
|
| Is it possible
to bring regulatory mechanisms into corporate management
so as to protect human rights and to consider the environment,
in the interests of every stakeholder (management, workers,
clients, suppliers, investors and above all local communities)
involved, for different reason, in the actions of businesses? |
|
| Is
it possible for
corporations who expand their cycle of production in developing
countries to maintain the fundamental rights of children,
women, disabled or those otherwise discriminated against? |
|
| Is it possible
for corporations to promote organizational actions for
safety, health, and education jointly to the local communities,
administrations and governments of the countries where
the productive actions are developed? |
|
| The world economy, under
the effect of the globalisation and the desire to maximize profits,
leads the productive organization to take little if no interest
in the human rights; however,: |
| "The consequences of management decisions
do not end at the company door (in any case there is an
internal community tied to the external world), but they
extend to the various spheres of the social life" (Magatti
1999). |
|
| It is necessary to not take for
granted the territorial limitations that corporate
actions can cause. What are the consequences of corporate actions?
And for these associated consequences who should be answered
to? |
| "To the owner, to one's own family,
to the management, to the shareholders, to the workers, to the
financing banks, to the consumers, to the local community?" |
| The issue has a strategic relevance
for the growth or the progressive depression of the context
where the corporation acts. The debate is now oriented to the
awareness of undertaking a new social contract where
to combine with strength the internal stakeholders (Management,
workers, etc.) and external stakeholders (those of banks, suppliers,
clients, social community, institutions, etc.), both considered
an integral part of the economic system. |
