Sustainability: What?
What is CSR
The responsibility of an organization for the impacts of its decisions and activities on society and
environment, through transparent and ethical behaviour that:
- Contributes to sustainable development
- Takes the expectations of stakeholders into account
- Is in compliance with law and international norms
- Is integrated in the organization
It is a PROCESS to integrate social, environmental, ethical, human rights and consumer concerns
into business operations and their core strategy in collaboration with the stakeholders
- Identify, prevent and mitigate possible adverse impacts
- Maximize the creation of shared value for owners and stakeholders
CSR is for all types of organizations and is a useful management tool for:
- Innovation and growth
- Employee motivation
- Customer attraction
- Risk management
- Operational management
CSR is a process, not a final destination
- An integral vision on entrepreneurship where the company creates value in PPP fields
- Requires engagement from stakeholders
- Legal obligations towards society and environment
- Embedded in all business operations
- There is no one-size-fits all methodology
- It is voluntary
- It must be transparent
- It is long-term oriented
Shared value
= a win win situation
Create economic value in a way that also creates value for the society by addressing its needs and
challenges
The purpose of a corporation must be redefined as creating shared value, and not just profit. This will
drive the next wave of innovation and productivity growth in the global economy (Michael Porter)
,Sustainability: why?
Cost saving
reducing waste by lower energy costs, lower level of absenteeism, more efficient operations
Human resources management
the company is a more attractive employer and increases labour productivity
Innovation capacity
they adapt more quickly to the changing environment
Market demand
there is growing marketing demand for responsible companies and products
License to operate
companies that engage in CSR are less vulnerable to campaigns and boycotts
Risk management
enables enterprises to better anticipate. Drive the development of new markets and create
opportunities for growth
Reputation
CSR is good for the image of the company, therefore it is a good idea to communicate
activities
Sustainability: history
1972: CLUB OF ROME
explore how exponential growth interacts with finite resources
every 20 years there would be a new book about an update of the CSR definition
1987: WCED: BRUNDTLAND REPORT
The World Commission of Environment and Development placed environmental issues on the
agenda
1992: UNCED: AGENDA 21
UN Conference on Environment and Development had a voluntary action plan with regards to
sustainable development
2000: Millenium Summit: MDGs
Millenium development goals (8 goals) by 2015 but did not reach it. All 189 UN members
states and 23 international organizations committed to help achieve the MDGs
2015: Sustainable Development Goals: SDGs
Transform our world, 17 goals by 2030
CSR is not a new concept. A large proportion of organisation have done things that could be called
CSR even if they do not know it. Now there is a more growing attention to CSR by policy-makers,
consumers, trade unions and NGOs. These actors should give more recognition to what organizations
already do in this field. The challenge is to get more organisations to do more CSR
Sustainability: how?
