Agresivitas Pajak, Environmental Performance, Leverage dan Likuiditas, terhadap Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure dengan Profitabilitas sebagai Pemoderasi

The focus of this study is the company's lack of attention and awareness of social responsibility, which results in conflicts between companies and communities regarding the impact of company operations. This shows that there are multiple factors that influence corporate social responsibility. The purpose of this research is to find out how tax aggressiveness, environmental protection, leverage, and liquidity affect the disclosure of corporate social responsibility, with profitability as a moderator. This research was conducted on 19 consumer non-cyclic companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2017-2021 period, using a purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using panel data regression using E-Views 12.0. The results show that tax aggressiveness has a significant negative effect on CSR disclosure, while leverage has a positive effect on CSR disclosure. Environmental protection and salary have no effect on CSR disclosure. Profitability cannot reduce tax aggressiveness, level of environmental protection, and disclosure of corporate social responsibility, but can strengthen or reduce the effect of liquidity on social responsibility. Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure, Tax Aggressiveness, Environmental Performance, Leverage, Liquidity, Profitability.

Corporate social responsibility and labor tax avoidance: Evidence from Spain

AbstractThis study expands on the scope of firms' social responsibility and analyzes the relationship between Environmental Social Governance (ESG) and a commonly neglected aspect of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), which is tax payment – specifically, the payment of labor taxes. To test the research hypothesis, this study utilizes ESG data from Refinitiv Eikon and consolidated accounting data collected from Sistemas de Análisis de Balances Ibéricos (SABI) and applies panel data estimation. The regression results indicate that CSR has a negative and significant relationship with Labor Tax Avoidance (LTAV). This negative relationship remains robust and significant across different estimation methods and measures of CSR and LTAV. Our research suggests that managerial and practical concerns regarding social responsibility awareness are related to firms' decisions, impacting both society and employees, particularly concerning the avoidance of labor taxes.

Evaluating Performance Incorporating Multi-Criteria Decision Making and ESG Index: The Case of Taiwanese PCB Industry

The Printed Circuit Board (PCB) industry is known as the "mother of electronic system product" in the high-tech electronics industry. When this industry enters a mature stage, cost control becomes the key to its success. Additionally, as the corporate’s awareness of social responsibility like ESG (Environment, Social, & Governance) has risen, the cost control remains a critical indicator for evaluating a company's performance. This study uses the consolidated financial statements of 35 companies in Taiwan's listed PCB industry through collecting data from the Taiwan Stock Exchange from 2022 to 2022. This study chooses 16 key financial indicators through expert opinions and selects 7 input variables and 5 output variables from 5 screening criteria.

Literature review on waste management of online food delivery industry in China

Meituan Waimai, which was officially launched in November 2013, has created a huge market for food delivery in China. After years of development, China’s online food delivery market reached RMB 664.62 billion in 2020. In 2022, Meituan Waimai and Ele.me, two food delivery platforms, have created a duopoly in China’s food delivery industry. Due to the success of the food delivery industry, a significant amount of food delivery packaging waste has caused far-reaching harm. This literature review primarily organizes the research on the impact of online food delivery packaging from the perspective of environmental protection. It uses the criterion layer index of online food delivery waste management ecosystem to analyze the impact of the government, environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs), garbage recycling processors, consumers, online food delivery platforms, takeaway merchants, and takeaway packaging manufacturers. The review shows that scholars generally believe that takeaway waste management is a complex process involving multiple factors. The implementation of policies at the government level is inadequate, and studies at the environmental NGO level are scant. At the consumer level, more environmental awareness education is required. Online food delivery platforms and takeaway merchants should assume greater corporate social responsibility, and manufacturers of takeaway packaging need prioritize the substitution of environmentally friendly materials. There is a consensus that paper-made and recyclable packaging boxes are more environmentally friendly than degradable packaging, which is not as environmentally friendly as is commonly believed. The academia and the industry have conducted various studies and pilot projects on recyclable packaging. If all levels cooperate well, this will be an effective way to manage takeaway packaging garbage. At last, we propose the following assumptions for future research: Besides environmental hazards, takeaway garbage has caused direct or indirect physical harm to humans and animals. Increasing consumer awareness may increase their propensity to participate in governance. Additionally, existing food delivery platforms may need to improve their corporate social responsibility awareness to provide environmentally conscious consumers with sufficient and effective plastic reduction guidance measures during the ordering process. Moreover, will biodegradable plastic products face the same ironic situation as biofuels? That is, the initial intention of technology development is to improve the environment, but the actual process of production or processing may controversially aggravate the environment.

Criteria system construction for sustainable supplier selection: A product-category-oriented intelligent model

In recent years, awareness of environmental protection and social responsibility has increased, making sustainable supply chain development and the selection of sustainable suppliers more important. The construction of a criteria system is the premise of sustainable supplier selection (SSS), which determines the final decision. Recognizing the limitations of existing research works, including subjectively determined evaluation criteria based only on the literature and personal experience, and neglecting the characteristics of different product categories and the combination effect of different criteria, this research designs a product-category-oriented intelligent SSS criteria system construction model by applying the random forest algorithm and the recursive feature elimination cross-validation method. The novelties and contributions of this paper include, first, a systematic SSS criteria system construction model from a new perspective of product category is designed to help buyers construct a comprehensive, reliable, and efficient SSS criteria system. Second, the appropriate integration of human experience and machine learning fully exploits the advantages of both subjective judgement and objective analysis. Third, the ideas and methods of group decision making are introduced for the first time into the SSS criteria system construction process, and the relative importance of different decision-makers are taken into account. Finally, the proposed model can construct the optimal SSS criteria system while considering the combination effect of the whole criteria system. The model was validated in a Chinese forklift company, helping the company to construct a criteria system containing nine criteria with 86.68% accuracy rate. The results of comparative and sensitivity analyses show that the accuracy of the proposed model can achieve an 8.11% improvement compared with other existing methods.
