Abstract: Abstract Traditionally, businesses in Iran have carried out some rituals to perform their religious social responsibility. Also, employers have usually played a patriarchal role to employees and support them occasionally. Despite this context, social corporate responsibility, in its modern meaning, has not been developed as much as required in Iran. Here, some related guidelines and policies enacted by government or private bodies are discussed. There are some successful examples of companies which execute various kind of programs regarding CSR, while there are some examples that some businesses completely fail in doing so.
