Assessment of the potential of the EU endeavours to improve corporate social responsibility processes and disclosures
Original language description
The EU's commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is reflected in a set of mandatory and facultative measures. Since the CSR is perceived as the responsibility of companies, it should be predominantly incorporated in companies and their policies. The EU wants to play a supporting role through a mix of voluntary measures and, only if needed, complementary regulations. This strategy aims at the improvement of the self and co-regulation processes and of company disclosures with respect to the CSR. However, is this endeavour correctly set and applied, i.e. can and does it improve the CSR processes and disclosures? The EU framework on CSR is explored along with the most recent annual reports of the top ten Czech companies. A holistic Meta-Analysis reveals a myriad of achievements and shortcomings, as well as compatibility and contradictory elements pointing to inherent differences and the challenging feasibility of the EU endeavours and the questionable potential to truly contribute to the CSR in this manner across the entire EU. This leads to the pioneering propositions about how the endeavours of the EU could be improved to make the CSR of European enterprises a positive element in the global environment.
