Non-market or secondary stakeholders are usually external, such as political and social forces that can influence the success of the company. These include people who are not directly involved in the operations of the business, but who can influence its actions, such as regulatory agencies. For example, the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration both act as non-market stakeholders for companies across the country. Non-market stakeholders may also be entities that benefit from the company’s activities, such as a charitable organization that is supported financially by the company.
