The existence of companies earning profits through extracting of natural resources from community’s/inhabitant’s environment has contributed to the growing awareness about the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Aspects of CSR related to employee participation require support from human resource management (HRM). Although research linking the role of HRM and CSR has seen a significant increase, but there is still no comprehensive approach that examines these two concepts jointly. This study aims to consider the structure of CSR-HRM at PT Kutai Timber Indonesia (PT KTI), the role of HRM in the development and implementation of CSR, and the contribution of HRM in corporate sustainability through CSR at PT KTI. The study used a qualitative approach to the type of case study research. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis in this study was carried out in three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, and final conclusion. The validity test of data is used the method of source triangulation and technical triangulation. The research findings conclude that the understanding of CSR adopted by PT KTI was still focused on the external dimension, so the structure of PT KTI’s CSR-HRM was limited to administrative relations. HRM in the HRD Department of PT KTI does not have a strategic role related to the development of CSR, but has an administrative role related to employee licensing in implementing CSR. PT KTI’s HRD department contributes to corporate sustainability through HRM core tasks. The limitation of this study is its limitation to be generalized to other sites/objects. The sound generalization could be applied only to objects/sites that have similar or similar characteristics. Keywords: CSR, the role of HRM, corporate sustainability, PT KTI.

The increasing role of society as a factor in the development of a company actualizes the introduction of the corporate social responsibility concept, its boundaries and its impact on economic results. The implementation of corporate social responsibility activities and programs forms a positive image of the company as of a responsible employer, manufacturer and counterparty, which simultaneously strengthens the company's competitive position and increases its level of security. Nevertheless, the integration of environmental and social programs into the company's business processes requires investments and, respectively, the coordination of these projects with strategic business development initiatives to ensure a certain balance between desired goals and real opportunities. That is the reason for the relevance of researching the practice of planning of socially targeted events and determining the relationship between their implementation and the performance results of the company. The article considers the current practice of implementing the principles of corporate social responsibility in the activities of world trading companies in the context of ensuring their economic security. The author of the article investigated the level of implementation of corporate social responsibility tools in the practice of 19 world trade leaders in terms of their turnover. It is proved that trading companies with high rates of corporate sustainability implement social initiatives in accordance with the developed plans and strategies for their implementation. The author identifies priority areas for the implementation of social projects of trading companies, among which the most common are creation of decent working conditions, gender equality, implementation of educational initiatives to rationalize consumption and production in terms of human physiological needs and careful use of resources, of the fight against climate change and their consequences. The hypothesis regarding the dependence of business economic security on the activity of implementation of corporate social responsibility projects was also checked. Based on the correlation analysis, a direct relationship has been established between corporate sustainability indicators and the main performance results of trading companies, which determine their level of economic security.

The Central Bureau of Statistics stated that the unemployment rate in Indonesia reached 6.32% or 7.61 million people. The largest number of the unemployed is dominated by college graduates or about 12.78 percents. On the other hand, 4.76 million entrepreneurs are highly needed by Indonesia. That is why companies and universities in Indonesia have an important and strategic role in the development of entrepreneurship through CSR. To optimize the implemetation of the CSR programs effectively and efficiently and to reach the targets, the synergy among companies, universities, societies and government is highly required. Act No. 40 of 2007 was issued by the government to govern the obligations of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Politically the participation of universities are relatively acceptable to all related parties; they are considered as an agent of change with abundant resources, and also serve as an initiator, mediator, motivator and evaluator in developing entrepreneurship through CSR. It is expected that through CSR financial support universities are able to increase the participation and contributation of the related parties in accordance with their potential to develop entrepreneurial synergy.

The concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) is changing from charity and philanthropy to structures and mandates; from voluntary to statutory! Moreover, with the introduction of this mandated CSR in India, there is a sudden surge in CSR research and the differences in the concept of CSR between developed and developing countries have become evident. It is in this perspective that this research aims to study the macro structure of CSR in India; understand its CSR mandate and document the different tenets of this CSR mandate as found in literature. In the micro context, it also analyzes the mediating role of the (variable) corporate social responsibility (VCSR) between strategic management and firm performance.

The fact is that in the last decade India has seen a very significant growth in the tourism and hospitality sector. Likewise Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) related articles have been written and published in the recent years on a large scale. This paper explores how CSR has developed within the extant literature. This emerging research on CSR in the context of tourism and hospitality is pushing past the boundaries of early approaches to corporate sustainability by providing empirical evidence is to support the importance of integrating a range of stakeholder perspectives and needs throughout the planning, implementation, and evaluation of CSR initiatives. Moreover, we observe that while there is ample research on certain stakeholder groups such as management, employees, shareholders, and consumers, there is less emphasis on the role of communities and ecosystems as stakeholders and very little related to suppliers, NGOs, and government. Although tourism and hospitality firms may not be subject to the same pressures as other industries, there remain important opportunities to both document and engage these external stakeholders in the journey towards sustainability for a long time in the country.
