<p class="JOURNALABSTRACT-TITLE"><span lang="IN">Sebagai salah satu perusahaan yang bergerak dibidang produksi pemanfaatan sumber daya alam, PT. Cirebon Electric Power (CEP) telah melaksanakan berbagai program <em>Corporate Social Responsibility</em> (CSR), salah satunya ialah kegiatan penanganan sampah di Desa Pengarengan</span><span lang="EN-US">,</span><span lang="IN"> Kabupaten Cirebon melalui kelompok Penggerak Wisata Pengarengan (PESPA). Program ini menjadi penting untuk dilihat dikarenakan memiliki keunikan tersendiri, yakni keberadaan <em>multi-stakeholder</em> di sana yang ikut berperan aktif dan berkolaborasi dalam mengupayakan keberhasilan kegiatan tersebut, mengingat persoalan sampah di sana cukup meresahkan masyarakat. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif-deskriptif yang dipadukan dengan teori implementasi CSR dan kerja sama <em>multi-stakeholder</em>. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui tiga tahap, yakni observasi, wawancara, dan <em>focus group discussion</em>. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa peran <em>multi-stakeholder</em> yang terlibat dalam kegiatan penanganan sampah ini antara lain: PT. CEP sebagai inisiator, <em>enabler, mentor,</em> dan <em>controller</em>; kelompok Formas PL sebagai <em>implementer</em> dan <em>controller</em>; Pemerintah Desa Pengarengan sebagai <em>regulator </em>dan <em>controller</em>; kelompok PESPA sebagai <em>implementer</em>; tokoh masyarakat sebagai <em>enabler</em> dan <em>controller</em>, dan; DLH Kabupaten Cirebon sebagai <em>regulator</em> dan sekaligus <em>implementer</em>. Namun demikian, kegiatan ini juga memiliki tantangannya tersendiri, yakni mengupayakan adanya konsistensi para <em>stakeholder</em> yang terlibat dan perlunya inovasi-inovasi pengembangan, seperti pemanfaatan sampah plastik menjadi berbagai macam kerajinan atau sampah organik menjadi pupuk kompos.</span></p>

This paper aims to show that the strategic incorporation of socially responsible actions, in small and medium enterprises contribute to improving the competitiveness of those organizations. The analysis is from a multi-stakeholder perspective. It investigates the link among firms’ relationship with key stakeholders with the objective to find out if there is a competitive advantage in applying Corporate Social Responsibilities practices. Besides the direct influence of Corporate Social Responsibility practices on competitive performance, the mediating connection of relationship improvements has been analyzed. By using their influence, stakeholders hold the key to the environment in which the organization operates and its subsequent financial performance. The empirical analysis was constructed on survey data through structural equation modeling (SEM). To accomplish this assignment data were collected from a sample of Brazilian SMEs. Participants were firms from the Southern region of Brazil mainly from the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, and Parana. The outcome shows that there is a strong connection between the development of Social Responsibilities practices and relational improvements. In addition, the significant relationship in developing Social Responsibilities Practices positively translates, with a high accuracy outcome into competitive performances.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) remains a hot topic in management. Yet, little is known about how well managers, employees and consumers are responding to CSR initiatives to align with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Underpinned by well-established theories, this study develops a single integrative model of managers’, employees’ and consumers’ CSR. Data were collected from the LUX* group of resorts and hotels located on three Indian Ocean islands: Mauritius, Reunion and the Maldives. Structural equation modelling was employed. Findings reveal: (1) organizational CSR is positively related to employee social responsibility; (2) organizational CSR is negatively associated with customer social responsibility; (3) employee social responsibility is negatively related to customer social responsibility; (4) employee social responsibility is negatively related to customer delight; (5) customer social responsibility is positively related to customer satisfaction; and (6); customer social responsibility is positively related to customer delight. Strategic CSR initiatives with a multi-stakeholder engagement approach are discussed.

In this chapter, we make a contribution to the literature on corporate social responsibility in global value chains that link dispersed consumers and importers in developed countries with local manufacturers, workers, and communities in developing countries. We create an integrated analytical framework and a methodology that can guide master-level and Ph.D. students as well as practitioners on how they may map the governance processes through which multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs) in global value chains are formulated, implemented, monitored as well as the impact that MSI standards have on the work conditions of those laboring at the base of global value chains. We use a stylized case study of fair trade in the football manufacturing industry in Pakistan to illustrate how the framework and the methodology might be applied to the empirical analysis of MSI governance processes and their impacts on workers' conditions in export-oriented industries in the South.
