Small, Czech Family Firms and CSR

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This paper explores corporate social responsibility (CSR) in small, Czech family firms. In-depth, semi-structured interviews with 10 small family firm owners were conducted. The findings show that CSR in these firms is done in an informal, ad hoc way and the owners do not use the term CSR nor have a clear idea about its meaning. Nevertheless, the owners cite financial resources and time as greatest barriers to conducting CSR. These findings go in line with the findings of the current literature on CSR in small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Furthermore, this paper identified a divide between how the owners perceive “doing CSR” and being “socially responsible”. They see these two things as separate, suggesting that CSR might not be a good concept for studying SMEs. Lastly, most owners stated that the family aspect of their firm has no effect on its social responsibility.
