Abstract: Objective - The business world requires that companies not only focus on management and owners, but also that they pay attention to the sustainability of the social environment. This concept is better known as Corporate Social Responsibility. The purpose of this study is to obtain empirical evidence about the factors which influence corporate social responsibility. Methodology/Technique - The independent variables used in this research are: board size, firm size, profitability, liquidity, public ownership, and firm age. The objects used in this study are non-financial companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2016 and 2018. The data selected as a research sample of 183 non-financial companies. Sample selection procedures can be obtained from the results of purposive sampling. Finding - The results show that board size, firm size, and profitability all have an influence on corporate social responsibility disclosure. On the other hand, liquidity, public ownership, and firm age have no influence on corporate social responsibility. Type of Paper - Empirical.
