9.11 : אחריות חברתית ואחריות תאגידית

Social responsibility and company citizenship define a firm's actions towards society and communities.

A company's exercise of its rights, obligations, and responsibilities in local and global settings defines its corporate citizenship, which is an integral part of social responsibility.

The objectives of corporate citizenship are minimizing harm, being accountable to stakeholders, and promoting robust financial outcomes.

To achieve these goals, companies utilize different strategies, such as supporting charitable initiatives, exemplified by global brands like Nestle, which is engaged in community adoption programs and public service activities.

Further, companies promote employee volunteerism and implement policies to reduce their environmental impact, like Patagonia's staff volunteerism and bike-to-work initiatives.

Another strategy is promoting a diverse and inclusive workplace that values employees from different backgrounds, fostering a positive working atmosphere.

Also, by supporting initiatives like India's Digital Literacy Programs, companies like Amazon promote education and technology to improve communities.

In conclusion, businesses demonstrate community commitment through these sustainable initiatives.
