Abstract: Abstract Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) generally refers to social and ethical responsibilities that corporations should perform in their business activities beyond legal requirements. The term CSR is widely recognised and accepted currently across the global corporate world as a social and ethical dimension of business. As a concept it is ‘a talk of the town in corporate circles these days’. Its main aim is to make the business socially responsible and thus engaging business enterprises into the processes of sustainable development.
