The Impact

The empirical research into the impact of CSR on return on  assets is confusing and far from conclusive. Also in most ofthe previous studies; economic performance covered a (commonly five year) period “surrounding” the CSR performanceand/or social disclosure periods. To overcome these limitations, our paper assess the impact of CSR return on assets ofmanufacturing firms in Nigeria. The result showed that with CSR, corporate social responsibility had a positive and significant effect on return on assets of the manufacturing organizations while without CSR, the impact is negative and non-significant. The implication is that what companies spend on the development of society of interest may be related toreturn on equity but does not significantly detect increase/decrease in return on equity. This study thus posits thatmanufacturing organizations should concentrate evenly also on other elements which organization see mainly as majordeterminants of return on assets as the finding is showing an insignificant effect of CSR on ROA.

The Impact

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is now an integral part of business model of most of the modern organizations. Companies are making efforts to play their role in improving society in one or other ways. The scope of efforts ranges from donating money to nonprofit organizations to employing environmental-friendly policies in their workplace. As per the general global perception the corporate sector of Pakistan has been lacking behind in respect of CSR implementation. It has largely concentrated on profit minting rather than taking care of the welfare aspects of employees and other stakeholders. This attitude has affected the business and as a result industry has failed to keep pace with the modern industry. The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of CSR on firm’s financial performance. The research therefore predicates that increase in CSR activities of poor CSR firms shall have a negative effect on the company’s financial performance. Whereas, Middle CSR firms having a positive relationship with Excess Value (EV) will enhance the project performance, financial stature and future prospect of the firms. However, the firms with the best CSR will always have a positive relationship with the firm’s financial performance but its impact will not be observed significantly on the firm’s financial condition.

The Relationship

The present study analyzed the impact of corporate social responsibility (CSR) reporting on the financial performance of Indian companies. It used secondary data from 50 manufacturing companies over the period of fiscal years 2011 to 2017. The results suggested that there exists a significant relationship between the performance of Indian companies and their CSR. The CSR not only improves the firm’s social value and reputation but also improves profitability and performance. According to the results, return on assets is significantly determined by corporate governance, customers, products, number of employees, and board size. The customer has a negative impact on return on assets (ROA). The relationship between return on equity and independent variables is the same as the relationship between ROA and independent variables. Corporate governance and product positively impact ROE, but the relationship between customers, number of employees, and board size are negative. Corporate governance and product positively impact return on capital employed (ROCE), but the relationship between customer and the number of employees is negative. Education has positive impact on profit after tax (PAT) and profit before tax (PBT), but the PAT relationship between environments is negative. Corporate governance and product positively impact PBT. In general, we concluded that in India, socially responsible corporations perform better and vice versa.

Positive Results

The current research investigates the impact of internal corporate social responsibility on job satisfaction in Jordanian pharmaceutical companies. Quantitative research design and regression analysis were applied on a total of 302 valid returns that were obtained in a questionnaire based survey from 14 pharmaceutical companies among employees, supervisors and managers. The results showed that internal corporate social responsibility was significantly related to job satisfaction and three of its dimensions, namely working conditions, work life balance and empowerment contributed significantly to job satisfaction, whereas employment stability and skills development had no contribution. This study implies that Jordanian pharmaceutical companies have to try their best to promote and facilitate internal corporate social responsibility among their employees in an effort to improve their job satisfaction, which will eventually yield positive results for the company as a whole. In light of these results, the research presented many recommendations for future research; the most important ones were the application of this study in other sectors, cultures, and countries, and using of multi method for collecting data.

The Impact

This study aims to explore the impact of family ownership on the relationship among corporate social responsibility (CSR) and earning management (EM) in Pakistan. Data is collected from nonfinancial listed firms on Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSE) for the period 2009-2017. Our results of pooled ordinary least square regression indicate that CSR has significant negative impact on EM. Furthermore, results also indicate that association between CSR and EM is moderated by family ownership. Family firms which perform CSR activities are less involved in EM as compare to nonfamily firms perform CSR activities. This variation in behavior of EM in family and non-family firms can possibly be explained by socioemotional wealth theory.
