This study looks at how corporate social responsibility, or CSR, affects society. It also looks at how customers feel about CSR and how it affects workers and the community. About 50 people, including consumers and employees, were interviewed for this study to find out how they feel about businesses that are or are not implementing corporate social responsibility (CSR). Additionally, data was gathered from 10 businesses to find out how they feel about CSR and its significance, as well as how it affects the community and how it can boost employee loyalty and customer satisfaction.
The impact of corporate social responsibility and the independent variables—consumers, employees, and society—were examined using econometric analysis. In addition, this study demonstrates that the information was gathered from two sources: corporate websites and interviews.
