Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a part of corporate business social activities as an effort to bring good impact on environmental issues. Information regarding social activities, both economic also non-economic, has attracted the attention of users of financial reports. The disclosure of corporate social responsibility to the public is still voluntary. The theoretical development of CSR is stakeholder theory and legitimacy theory. Both of these theories come from a political economy perspective which explains the motivation for social disclosure. Stakeholder theory try to clarify the credentials of stakeholders. Meanwhile, the legitimacy theory explains that voluntary disclosure is component of the legitimacy process. The disclosure of corporate social responsibility can also be influenced by company characteristics, such as firm size, profitability, company profile, the number of  the board of commissioners, leverage, ownership structure, business age, company size, growth and industrial type. This paper aims to explain the motivation for CSR disclosure from a theoretical perspective and identify company characteristics that can influence CSR disclosure.

Corporate social report had been done on company annual report in Indonesia. Workers theme was the most interesting theme amongs others. The condition happened consistently on high-profile dan low-profile industrial groups. But, corporate social report in Indonesia was still low. It was assumed because the company did not taking advantage to the annual report as a communication media between company and stakeholders. Possibly, it was because the company only used annual report as a report for the stakeholders and debt holders or as information for future investors. Another factor causing the low number was because the company was only done small social activities.

Purpose. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the impact of hotel commitment in ecological and pro-social activities on perception of its image, reputation and interest in its offer, depending on the pro-environmental attitudes of clients. Method. The study involved 150 participants, randomly divided into 3 groups. In each of them, one of the three variants of information on the involvement of a fictitious hotel in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities was presented: pro-environmental vs. pro-social vs. no information. Before studying the information about the hotel, the respondents’ pro-environmental attitudes were evaluated. After reviewing the hotel's offer, the respondents assessed its image, reputation and interest in its offer. Findings. The hotel image, reputation and interest in its offer were more positive when they were engaged in ecological or social activities than when there was no information on the subject. Moreover, pro-environmental attitudes positively correlated with interest in a hotel’s offer regarding ecological involvement, negatively - in the absence of information, and were not associated with it in pro-social activities.

Summary Today’s enterprises are becoming more and more socially active. In some respects, they are starting to resemble third-sector organizations. In the context of progressive isomorphism, the issue of organizational identity deserves attention. Identity is based, among others, on organizational mission and values, whose management requires the shaping of coherent links between these components, as well as actual efforts and their communication. Modern enterprises are markedly fond of using electronic media, including corporate websites, to communicate with the audience. The purpose of the article is to determine the prevalence of different types of missions and values among the largest enterprises located in Poland, especially those related to CSR, as well as to identify the relationship between their declared CSR missions and values and the presentation of selected corporate social activities on their corporate websites. It was found that two-thirds of the analyzed companies posted missions on their corporate websites. In most cases they declared focus on costumers, and less often - product superiority, innovation, or responsibility. Less than half of the companies presented organizational values through their websites. Those which prevailed are: professional, ethical, relational, and describing attitudes towards the environment. The analysis shows that every second analyzed company presented missions and values that referred to issues related to social responsibility. Enterprises that included references to responsibility towards the environment in their mission communicated only some of the corporate social activities. It was different in the case of enterprises which pointed to the importance of societal values among the declared values. Such organizations more often pursued CSR activities and communicated them. Therefore, it can be conclude that a better predictor of the effects of identity management in the area of CSR was the declaration of values related to social responsibility.
