Abstract: Abstract Few firms provide corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports and even fewer reports on issues relating to the duty to pay a “just wage” as this duty is understood by the tradition of Christian Social Thought (see the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, Chap. 6 “Human Work,” V. “The Rights of Workers,” §302 “The Right to Fair Remuneration and Income Distribution”). In this chapter I address the question of how a firm might implement a system to fulfill a commitment to pay just wages, and make a concrete proposal for reporting standards concerning just wages.
