Abstract

In the current corporate landscape, firms are confronted with a multitude of demands and pressures from diverse stakeholders with employees being the foremost and most crucial group. Developing a competitive advantage for the company requires attracting and maintaining employee engagement especially their participation in extra-role activities. The employment of corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a strategy for attracting and keeping talented employees helps businesses gain a competitive edge. In this regard, this paper investigates the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and employee organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) with job satisfaction as a mediating factor. We adopted stakeholder theory and social exchange theory to develop a research framework with five elements of CSR influencing OCB through job satisfaction. A self-administered survey was conducted to gather data from employees who work in the Vietnamese hotel industry. We received 375 valid responses after five months using convenient sampling methods. The structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis was run in SmartPLS to test the proposed hypotheses. The results of our study showed that the only CSR that directly impacts OCB is CSR towards the environment; CSR towards customers, CSR towards the community and CSR towards the environment all indirectly impact OCB through the mediation of job satisfaction. Based on the findings, we recommended that hotels regularly share CSR initiatives with staff members in order to encourage them to participate in extracurricular activities at work.
