Key areas of concern are environmental protection and the well-being of employees,
the community and civil society in general, both now and in the future.
The concept of CSR is underpinned by the idea that corporations can no longer act as isolated economic entities operating in detachment from broader society. Traditional views about competitiveness, survival, and profitability are being swept away.

and working conditions, employee and community relations, social equity, gender balance, human rights,
good governance, and anti-corruption measures.
