Title: | Conceptualisation of corporate social responsibility : Malaysian stakeholders` perspective | Authors: | Tengku Farrah Maimunah binti T. Mohd Yusof | Subject: | Social responsibility of business -- Malaysia Corporations -- Malaysia Business enterprises -- Malaysia |
Year: | 2007 | Publisher: | Gombak : International Islamic University Malaysia, 2007 | Abstract in English: | There has been an increasing interest on the corporate social responsibility (CSR) worldwide. Many CSR concepts have been proposed based on the premise that the business institutions are part of the society. A set of CSR concept as proposed by Carroll is utilized by this study. This concept which is known as the Pyramid of CSR suggests that CSR is basically presented by four dimensions namely economic, legal, ethical and philanthropic in their respective order of importance. This concept is widely tested in the literature and most of them looking from the western countries perspectives. Despite the extensiveness of empirical research on CSR in the West, past research investigating CSR concepts Malaysian stakeholders remains scarce. Therefore, this study provides empirical evidence from Malaysian stakeholders’ perspectives on CSR concept proposed by Carroll (1979). The study surveys a sample of 457 respondents (45.7% usable response rate). The results show that Malaysian stakeholders ranked the four dimensions as economic, ethical, legal and philanthropic accordingly. The ranking of dimensions by the Malaysian stakeholder is slightly different from the idealized model suggesting cultural factor contributing to the differences. The study also highlighted gender, race, and education level, working experience and religiousity factors that contribute to the differences in perception. | Degree Level: | Master | Call Number: | t HD60.5M4T292C 2007 | Kullliyah: | Kulliyyah of Economics and Management Sciences | Programme: | Master of Science in Accounting | URI: | http://studentrepo.iium.edu.my/jspui/handle/123456789/3030 | URL: | https://lib.iium.edu.my/mom/services/mom/document/getFile/wbbhCO22YTdHBCJA3y2IzOTQ5uqCJ8eT20080102120444656 |
