For many corporations, demonstrating their sensitivity and commitment to mainstream challenges of society has been funneled through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). However, many of these CSR programs are becoming irrelevant and obsolete as corporations fail to prove the “ethical stature” that citizens demand today. Below are some reasons for this:Many CSR programs are too short-term oriented and mainly focus on reducing risks and obtaining good corporate reputation returns. The underlying disconnect with the organization’s core business is reflected in these programs being frequently handled in an isolated manner by non-commercial departments. In addition, this vision of CSR perceives any action as a cost and not as an investment for the company.None of the social problems addressed with the support of certain organizations are either no really solved, or solved in an inefficient way since the priority is to comply with administrative requirements to be labeled as a “socially responsible company”.Relevant actors have changed: not only new consumers but also employees, partners, suppliers, and local citizens bring to the table a series of very different expectations and demand positive and measurable results in the medium and long-term.Most organizations or projects supported by CSR programs rely on external funding to operate. In addition, these initiatives often do not generate a return on investment for the company (again, this reinforces that the CSR program is perceived as an expense and not as an investment). As a consequence, the sustainability of these organizations is clearly affected by any modification or reduction in the CSR programs and many of them are forced to disappear or significantly reduce their positive impact on society.
