Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has loomed as a significant focus area for businesses as consumers worldwide become more mindful about purchasing from brands and companies that exhibit social responsibility.

 

As a manifestation of these trends, for some time now, we have learned that eight of every ten  American shoppers buy ethically and environmentally aligned products. These consumers are more inclined toward companies/brands that are socially conscious. 

 

Several multi-national institutions have made amendments to their diverse laws to motivate/push organizations to invest in corporate responsibilities.

 

In the US, authorities have revised the federal tax code to encourage enterprises to contribute a proportion (at least 5%) of their income toward Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Another example of US government initiatives to make CSR a part of corporate culture is the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act along with the Consumer Protection Act (2010).

 

What Is CSR and What Are the Benefits of Drawing up a CSR Matrix?

 

Organizations are recognizing and integrating sustainable development methodologies in their planning and operation systems. These efforts come with a list of benefits for both — society and businesses. A few benefits are:

 

  • CSR gives products or services a unique image and relates it to a social cause. It invests the sentiments and ethics of customers, investors, and stakeholders with the brand. 
  • Brands can improve their image and marketplace value with well-designed and implemented CSR programs. Want to know more about how CSR can help with brand reputation? Click here!
  • Regular CSR activities improve organization relationships with local communities and authorities.
  • Environmental CSR initiatives like adopting sustainable energy resources — green energy, reusable material, etc., reduce the operating cost and increase profit margin.
  • Social responsibility initiatives will provide opportunities and ideas to corporates for the development of new products and services.

HOW TO MOVE TOWARDS CSR MATRIX IMPLEMENTATION? 

 

CSR is a beneficial strategy for employee retention, customer advocacy, and creating a socially conscious image of the brand. However, the implementation and continued sustainability of the program can be challenging. A CSR matrix will help your enterprise adopt and standardize a Common Shared Value (CSV) training program.

 

A CSR matrix is the visual tool used to plan programs under the initiative and measure their impact & effectiveness on the three bottom lines of business (3BL) — organization, society, and environment.

WHAT ARE THE QUADRANTS OF A CSR MATRIX?

 

The quadrants of a CSR matrix depend on the key areas you want to analyze. For example, for impact analysis, a CSR matrix can have community, environment, marketplace, and workplace in its four quadrants. You can keep campaigns, products, or services in the quadrants for budget planning.
