Revista Economica, 2017, vol. 69, issue 6, 31-41

Abstract: This paper aims at analysing the CSR issue in the context of Romanian SMEs. The first part of the paper reviews the literature on CSR in SMEs, identifying the drivers of CSR by SMEs, the particularities of the SMEs and also the barriers to the involvement of SMEs in CSR activities. We will use the case study in order to analyse firms listed on Bucharest Stock Exchange (BSE) Aero Market and we will highlight the lessons learned from SMEs in the process of integrating social responsibility (SR) into their business practice and the potential benefits that socially responsible practices can bring to the business environment and to the society. Our contribution will consist in filling the gap in SMEs CSR research and developing the literature.
