Journal of Business Ethics, 2015, vol. 130, issue 1, 15-28

Abstract: This paper explains how middle managers might enlist ethically engaged employees into the production of reliable, sustainable CSR. An accompanying model illustrates how those managers can encounter employee engagement in CSR and channel their enthusiasm effectively. It presents factors scaffolding organizational support for employee engagement and how they relate to the intensity of that engagement. It introduces the importance of employee voice and illustrates how associated signals might be captured. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015
