Summary
1.1 Background Corporate social responsibility refers to companies’ commitment in improving their business ethics by carrying out their operational activities legally, contributing for employees’ quality of live and improving the economic condition of broader communities. CSR reflects companies’ concerns on stakeholders (employees, customers, society and government) within their operational areas. CSR is beyond voluntary activities as it is a form of companies’ commitment in carrying out company operational activities, especially those that run their enterprises using natural resources. CSR is regulated in the "Law Number 40 of 2007. Article 74 concerning the Limited Liability Company Law". Concerns on environmental issues in relation to companies’ operational activities are rising.
