Summary
According to (Ademosu, 2008) CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) is contribution of an organization towards political, social, education and economic development of the society and the region where it works. Today the increasing awareness at global level, especially in the corporate sector, about the importance of social responsibility is helping to maintain the balance, environment and economy of the society without neglecting any of them leading to sustainable development (Maria João Santos, 2006). Despite the importance of the employees for the working and performance of an organization, research on the impact of employee perception of company CSR on job attitudes and behaviors is insufficient On the other hand job satisfaction can be considered as a part-specific concept which represents satisfaction regarding different aspects of work like payroll, working condition, workload etc (Cook, 1981), absenteeism, turnover, decision to retire lateness and other withdrawal behaviors (Hulin, 1985; Jaramillo, 2006), organizational commitment Stanley, D., Herscovitch, L. & Topolnytsky, L. , 2002), organizational justice (Colquitt, 2001), perceived organizational support (Eisenberg, 2002), life satisfaction (Judge, 1993) and burnout (Bacharach, 1991)
