Influence of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on safety culture

Abstract

Both safety culture and corporate social responsibility are essential drivers of enterprise value. By recognizing and adopting the principles of social responsibility, an organization may achieve a lasting competitive advantage on its markets. In their overall efforts, organizations must not ignore the need to care for the working environment and treat their workers in a proper way. As it turns out, measures conducted in the pursuit of social responsibility may be derived from a company’s emerging safety culture, which is equally important for an enterprise’s competitive position.
