Abstract

This chapter reports how managers in the manufacturing sector in India and Sweden understand the values of CSR and EO, and discusses the importance of these values for workplace attractiveness. It begins by describing the manufacturing sectors of the two countries on the basis of their respective national statistics. Thereafter, we present an understanding of the two values based on three data sources: (a) qualitative data collected through cognitive interviews of managers; (b) data collected through interviews of administrative heads or HR managers regarding the demographic composition of organizations and (c) a quantitative survey of first-line healthcare managers. The chapter discusses how manufacturing organizations formulate, implement and communicate their policies on organizational values, besides reporting on managers’ perceptions of CSR and EO. Further, managers’ ratings of attractiveness (organizational commitment and intention to leave) and perceived effectiveness, supported by tests of differences between the countries on these parameters, are reported. The importance that managers attach to these organizational values when they evaluate the organization’s attractiveness is then discussed.
