Socially responsible practices in SMEs

2 Dec 2007

A study investigated the awareness and practice of corporate social responsibility (CSR) among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Hungary. The research found that product quality is the primary focus of responsible and ethical practices. However, it concluded that local stakeholders, competitors, customers or even family members often discourage owner-managers of SMEs from committing extra time, money and energy to CSR practices.
