Abstract: This study presents a bibliometric analysis of the intersection between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and community health, aiming to identify research trends, key contributors, and thematic developments in the field. Using data from Scopus, this study maps the evolution of CSR literature with a focus on public health and sustainability. The findings indicate a marked increase in publications over the past decade, with significant contributions from institutions in the United States, the United Kingdom, and China. Key themes identified include workplace health promotion, ethical concerns in corporate practices, and the role of CSR in mitigating public health risks, particularly during global crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. This study highlights gaps in the literature and suggests directions for future research, including the need for interdisciplinary approaches and policy-driven CSR strategies. The results provide a valuable reference for academics and policymakers seeking to align corporate responsibility efforts with global health objectives.
