Master's thesis - CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY: Strategy and impacts on fi...auderichon
Society is feeling more and more concerned about the environment and social issues caused, among other things, by relocation and environmental dumping. Globalization has actually raised some ethical issues which peak levels were attained, socially speaking, when apparel companies were denunciated for using sweatshops in developing countries, and environmentally speaking, with Shell’s Brent Spar platform scandal. Consequently, companies started to think of how they could improve their image, even their way of doing business and started to engage in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
The purpose of this thesis is to understand why companies decide to engage in CSR and if CSR policies have impacts on firms’ financial performance. Thus, the research problem is the following: What characterizes Corporate Social Responsibility strategies and do they have an impact on financial performance?
In order to answer it, I will use first a review of the existing literature, then interviews performed with persons in charge of CSR/Sustainable Development (SD) in companies and opinion leaders will be analysed. To complement this part, a study on sustainability indexes followed by a specific outlook at the automobile sector and its impact on the environment will be undertaken.
The results show that Western multinational companies (MNCs) tend to be more and more engaged, with law pushing for that as well. Stakeholders have quite an influence on the process, but the main factor of success is the commitment of top management and the integration of CSR in corporate culture. Quantitative results are more mitigated and it cannot be clearly said that CSR favours or not financial performance. More prospective is needed to be definite in the answer.

The word ESG or Environmental, Social, and Governance Metrics are used to describe the environmental, social, and governance performance of a company. This can be done in many ways- via surveys that are sent to members of the public who then weigh in on what they believe are the most important factors for measuring environmental impacts or by performing research into how companies rank when it comes to key issues. Some people would argue that this is not necessary while others would argue that if you want your business to succeed then these metrics should be taken into consideration.

Estudios RSC: RSC y competitividad (Grupo 1: PEC4)maria diaz
Presentación/resumen correspondiente al trabajo de investigación sobre la influencia de la RSC en la competitividad empresarial.
La presentación constituye la primera parte de la PEC4 del grupo 1: “Estudios RSC” correspondiente a la asignatura Introducción a las competencias TIC del Grado de ADE de la UOC.
En los últimos años la responsabilidad social empresarial (RSE) se ha transformado en uno de los temas que más interesan en el mundo académico y empresarial, sin embargo sus bases conceptuales no son nada nuevas. Preocupaciones por el rol del hombre en el desarrollo de la sociedad, las posibles mejoras para sostener el crecimiento económico, las condiciones sociales requeridas para la vida humana, la avaricia humana y sus efectos, entre otros, son ejemplos de cuestionamientos que han estado presentes desde hace siglos (Mbare, 2007).
