刚果民主共和国矿业公司有效履行企业社会责任动机的研究
发布时间:2024-01-24 12:31
企业社会责任(CSR)相关问题是社会科学、商业和管理研究领域中一直热议主题,如今在政府和投资者的支持下,企业社会责任成为重要研究课题。当前企业在避免社会责任方面的道德妥协和实施高度透明的治理方面所做的比以往任何时候更多,企业对利益相关者表现更加负责。目前,企业目标已发生转变,过去利润最大化是企业的主要关注点和最终目标,而当今企业管理者更关注一些替代目标,例如关注长期利润而不是短期利润、重视品牌或环境等。基于此,本研究试图确定在刚果民主共和国(DRC)的矿业公司中企业整合社会责任(CSR)的动机。首先,对相关研究成果进行了梳理,基于文献研究分析了多层次框架,构建了与主要研究目标相一致的三层概念框架。第一层即为第一个目标,分析经理的个人特征,它是公司履行企业社会责任的动机;第二层为第二个目标,探究企业社会责任实施的内部因素;第三层体现第三个目标,分析公司遵守劳动法规的外部动机。为实现研究目标,本研究综合运用了多种方法进行分析。200家矿业公司中的103家公司成功参与了这项研究。第一项实证研究进行了逻辑回归分析,结果表明管理者的理想主义价值观和年龄对其社会责任承诺有正向影响。第二项实证研究中...
