Is profit-making the only goal of a business?


Should an unbridled market mechanism drive
corporate enterprise?
These are some of the questions that have
engaged specialist economists, business barons,
corporate heads and management experts for
decades. Corporate practices cannot bypass the
fundamental demands of ethical behaviour, and
that businesses must be sensitive to the
community and environment within which they
are established.
It refers to the obligations of businessmen
to pursue those policies, to make those
decisions, or to follow those lines of action
which are desirable in terms of the
objectives and values of our society
Associate Cement Company (ACC) defines
Corporate Social Responsibility as the way a
company balances its economic, social and
environmental objectives while addressing
stakeholder expectations and enhancing
shareholder value.
The evolution of the CSR begins in the 1950s
which marks the modern era of CSR.
Howard R. Bowen (1953) landmark bookSocial
Responsibilities of the Businessman is
argued to mark the beginnings of the modern
period of literature on this subject.
Keith Davis and Robert Blomstrom (1966)
defined social responsibility:
Business apply social responsibility when they
consider the needs and interest of others who
may be affected by business actions. In doing
so, they lookbeyond their firms narrow
economic and technical interests.
In1980, Thomas M. Jones said
Corporate social responsibility is the notion that
corporations have an obligation to constituent
groups in society other than stockholders and
beyond that prescribed by law and union contract.
Two facets of this definition are critical. First, the
obligation must be voluntarily adopted Second,
the obligation is a broad one, extending beyond
the traditional duty to shareholders to other
societal groups such as customers, employees,
suppliers, and neighboring communities.
All other business responsibilities of an
organisation are predicated upon the economic
responsibility of the firm. The profit motive is
established as the primary incentive for
entrepreneurship. As such, its principal role was
to produce goods and services that consumers
needed and wanted and to make an acceptable
profit in the process. The major components of
economic responsibility includes the following:
It is important to perform in a manner consistent
with maximizing earnings per share
It is important to be committed to being as
profitable as possible.
It is important to maintain a strong
competitive position.
It is important to maintain a high level of
operating efficiency.
It is important that a successful firm be
defined as one that is consistently profitable.
Society has not only sanctioned business to
operate according to the profit motive; at the
same time business is expected to comply
with the laws and regulations promulgated
by federal, state, and local governments as
the ground rules under which business must
operate.
It is important to be a law-abiding corporate
citizen.
It is important to provide goods and services
that at least meet minimal legal
requirements.
Although economic and legal responsibilities
embody ethical norms about fairness and
justice, ethical responsibilities embrace those
activities and practices that are expected or
prohibited by societal members even though
they are not codified into law.
Ethical responsibilities embody those
standards, norms, or expectations that reflect a
concern for what consumers, employees,
shareholders, and the community regard as fair,
just, or in keeping with the respect or protection
of stakeholders' moral rights.
Ethical values precede the establishment of
law. They become the driving force behind
the very creation of laws or regulations.
The business ethics movement of the past
decade has firmly established an ethical
responsibility as a legitimate CSR
component.
It is constantly pushing the legal
responsibility category to broaden while at
the same time placing ever higher
expectations on businesspersons to operate
at levels above that required by law.
Philanthropy encompasses those corporate
actions that are in response to societys
expectation that businesses be good
corporate citizens.
This includes actively engaging in acts or
programs to promote human welfare or
goodwill.
The distinguishing feature between
philanthropy and ethical responsibilities is
that the former are not expected in an
ethical or moral sense. And are voluntary.
Communities desire firms to contribute their
money, facilities, and employee time to
humanitarian programs or purposes.
A newly released study on
Reputation and Corporate Social Responsibili
ty
by Reputation Institute suggest that there
is actually a strong business case when it
comes to CSR.
Seventy-three percent of consumers across
the 15 largest markets in the world are
willing to recommend companies that are
perceived to be delivering on Corporate
Social Responsibility.
The problem is that only 5% of companies
are seen as delivering on these promises.
The biggest challenge is to integrate CSR
practices into the strategy of the companies
and not treat it as an add-on.
CSR can and should infiltrate every
department from supply chain,
procurement, innovation, manufacturing, HR,
all the way to disposal.
This RepTrak study shows that for every 5
points you improve your CSR perception on a
100 point scale, recommendation will go up
9%
Robert Ackerman was among the first to suggest
that responsiveness, not responsibility should be
the goal of corporate social endeavors
Ackerman pointed out that corporate response
to social issues has a life cycle
-recognition of the problem,
-study of the problem and
-consideration of ways to deal with it,
-concluding with implementing of a solution
It takes two basic approaches:
- On one hand it deals with how individual
companies respond to social issues.
- On the other hand, the theory deals with
the forces that determine the social issues in
which businesses should respond.
Combining the philosophical ideas of social responsibility
and social responsiveness, a single theory of corporate
social action called corporate social performance can be
embarked up on.

The arena of social responsibility is shaped by economic,


legal and ethical principles.

At individual companies, managers try to implement the


principles of the social contract in their decision making
processes and in their company policies
Corporate social performance is an important
consideration for many investors, who believe
that an organizations good social performance
is not only socially responsible but leads to good
financial performance.
More than dozen social conscience mutual
funds exist that choose securities for investment
purposes according to the companies records in
social responsibility that is, in protecting the
environment, helping the community

population size after China and over 70% of its
more than one billion people live in rural areas.
It aimed to assist rural entrepreneurs to start

Project by ITC.
ITC's Agri Business Division, one of India's
largest exporters of agricultural
commodities, has conceived e-Choupal as
a more efficient supply chain aimed at
delivering value to its customers around
the world on a sustainable basis.
The e-Choupal model has been specifically
designed to tackle the challenges posed by
the unique features of Indian agriculture,
characterised by fragmented farms, weak
infrastructure and the involvement of
numerous intermediaries, among others.
With a judicious blend of click & mortar capabilities, village
internet kiosks managed by farmers - called sanchalaks.
enable the agricultural community access ready information
in their local language on the weather & market prices.
It helped the farmers-
-enable the agricultural community access ready information
in their local language on the weather & market prices.
-disseminate knowledge on scientific farm practices & risk
management, facilitate the sale of farm inputs.
-enhance the ability of farmers to take decisions and align
their farm output with market demand .
-'e-Choupal' eliminates wasteful intermediation and multiple
handling. Thereby it significantly reduces transaction costs.
-'e-Choupal' ensures world-class quality in delivering all these
goods & services .
Before ITC introduced us to e-
Choupal, we were restricted to selling
our produce in the local mandi. We
had to go through middlemen and
prices were low. ITC trained me to
manage the Internet kiosk and I
became the e-Choupal Sanchalak in
my village. Today we are a
community of e-farmers with access
to daily prices of a variety of crops in
India and abroad - this helps us to get
the best price. We can also find out
about many other important things - ABHISHEK JAINSoya Farmer,
weather forecasts, the latest farming & e-Choupal
