Corporate social responsibility (CSR, also called corporate conscience, corporate citizenship, or responsible business) is a form of corporate self-regulation
integrated into a business model. CSR policy functions as a self-regulatory mechanism whereby a business monitors and ensures its active compliance with the
spirit of the law, ethical standards, and national or international norms. With some models, a firm's implementation of CSR goes beyond compliance and
engages in "actions that appeár to further some social good, beyond the interests of the firm and that which is required by law." The aim is to increase long-
term profits and shareholder trust through positive public relations and high ethical standards to reduce business and legal risk by taking responsibility for
corporate actions. CSR strategies encourage the company to make a positive impact on the environment and stakeholders including consumers, employees,
investors, communities, and others.
