我国上市公司社会责任信息披露现状探究

社会责任信息披露对于企业盲目的寻求自身利益与短视行为有着重要的约束作用,在可持续发展、社会资源分配、提高产品升级等方面还会对企业的长远发展提供支持。上市公司面向社会公众,其经营行为的公众性使企业的行为应当受到社会各界的共同监督,这就需要社会责任报告的揭示作用。我国上市公司社会责任信息披露目前存在信息披露质量低、形式不规范、独立报告意识缺乏等问题,社会责任意识淡薄、信息披露模仿性高、相关法律制度的缺失、社会责任会计理论与实践结合情况差是存在问题的主要原因。     

我国企业社会责任的探究

根据我国特殊的国情,通过分析企业经营中权力、责任、利益三者的关系,找出现阶段中国企业社会责任缺失的原因。从利益相关者理论出发,重新定位企业的社会责任,即企业的社会责任不等于社会职能,应避免"企业办社会"现象;企业的利润最大化和企业的社会责任可以和谐共存,承担相应的社会责任能够为企业带来稳定的顾客群、良好的美誉度和健康的行业氛围,对企业的长期发展有促进作用。基于以上研究提出推动企业社会责任发展的相关建议。

上市公司社会责任信息披露对于规范企业社会责任行为、强化企业社会责任意识具有重要影响,可有效的缓解资源短缺、环境污染等社会问题,并对提高产品质量、保护员工的合法权益具有较强的促进作用。我国上市公司社会责任信息披露存在的问题,主要是自愿披露公司数量少、形式单一、内容不充分、连续性较差等。企业及其外部利益相关者的社会责任意识淡薄,社会责任法律制度的缺失,我国的社会责任会计理论体系不完善等造成上述问题产生的原因。

基于商业生态系统视角的我国企业社会责任的思考

本文认为,任何一个企业都是商业生态系统中的生命体,系统的合理性、环境的动态变化直接影响到企业的经营活动和战略发展。企业的可持续发展能力与其所处的环境、社会、商业系统不是分离的,而是相互协调的关系。企业承担必要的社会责任,既有利于自身的可持续发展,又有利于和谐社会的建立。企业应有意识地加强同所处社会环境相结合的紧密程度,自觉增强企业的社会公德和责任意识。文章提出,从企业方面来讲,强化企业社会责任就是要通过企业社会责任自我意识的转变,关注与保障员工权益,保护消费者利益,采取有效措施保护环境等来增强企业的社会责任感;从商业生态系统方面考虑,就是要通过核心企业的带头示范作用、消费者的口碑及货币投票、社会监督和公众形象、政府行为和法律监管等来影响和强化企业的社会责任。     

国际企业社会责任标准运动及其对我国的启示

本文认为,国际企业社会责任标准的宗旨是确保生产商及供应商所提供的产品符合社会责任的要求,其主要内容包括人权、劳工权益和环境三个方面,其中劳工权益是核心。企业社会责任标准运动作为一种不可遏止的国际化运动,必然会对我国社会和经济的发展产生越来越大的影响。我们必须采取措施,积极应对,趋利避害,将其纳入我国劳动法制建设的轨道。加快完善我国相关法律法规,积极参与国际多边谈判,改善国内劳工条件,推动出口产品结构升级,加强企业社会责任意识,促使这一运动的运作规范化。     

绿色物流路径:物流绿色化改造的战略选择

绿色物流强调对环保的全方位全过程关注,既包括企业的绿色物流活动,也包括社会对绿色物流活动的监督、规范与控制,追求企业经济效益、消费者权益、环境效益及社会效益的统一,有利于社会经济可持续发展,是可持续发展战略的要求与21世纪物流发展的新趋势.特别是随着经济全球化和世界一体化的发展,以及我国参与国际分工程度的不断加深,发展绿色物流日益成为我国物流业参与国际竞争的前提和基础.为更好地建立适应我国社会主义市场经济大生产、大市场、大消费理念的绿色物流体系,必须从现状入手,充分发挥政府部门的主导作用,加强基础设施建设,组建绿色知识团队,发展逆向物流,推动绿色供应链战略,进行绿色税费改革.     

(Re)discovering the Social Responsibility of Business in Germany

The concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a relatively recent addition to the agenda in Germany, although the country has a long history of companies practicing social responsibilities. The expectations of society had remained stable for many years, encapsulated in laws, societal norms, and industrial relations agreements. But the past decade has seen significant changes in Germany, challenging established ways of treating the role of business in society. This contribution reviews and illustrates the development of diverse forms of social responsibility in German corporations and analyzes how actors in business and society can build on traditional strengths to find new institutional arrangements for sharing tasks and responsibilities in the interests of achieving a better balance between societal, economic, and environmental needs.     

青云创投:利成于益

"Doing Well By Doing Good"——做好事才能做好生意,越来越多的企业开始引用和信奉这句话。我们在此次的企业公民案例中报道的社会责任投资公司——青云创投按照中国人的语言习惯,将其翻译为"利成于益",并作为自己的企业理念。跟一般的慈善行为不同,企业公民行为追求社会利益与企业自身利益的和谐,社会、环境和企业的三重盈余。而越来越多的企业也开始运用自己做好生意的能力来做好事,比如在此次我们报道的其他企业公民案例中,合众人寿利用自己庞大的业务员队伍来实现对真正需要财务资助学生的"人肉搜索",惠氏利用专业组织来提升公益活动的效率和独立性,百事公司利用自己擅长的水处理能力帮助水资源匮乏的西北地区,这些企业在为社会、为环境创造价值的同时,自身也在实践着一种超越支票本式慈善的履责主义。     

从国际视角看强化我国企业社会责任的必要性

本文认为,目前我国对企业的社会责任认识不一,存在一些误区,有的甚至有抵触情绪。文章提出,从国外的企业社会责任报告制度来看,我国一方面应以政府引导、妥善应对、稳步推进、和谐发展、趋利避害为指导方针,加快企业社会责任法制化,建立我国企业社会责任评价标准和体系,充分发挥工会在强化企业社会责任方面的作用,加大对企业社会责任的宣传力度。另一方面,企业也要重视企业社会责任,积极担负起企业应肩负的社会责任,在注重自身发展的同时承担起社会责任,实现企业发展和社会发展的双赢目标。     

Chinese Consumers’ Perception of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

The findings of this article increase our understanding of corporate social responsibility from the consumers’ perspective in a Chinese setting. Based on primary data collected via a self-administered survey in Shanghai and Hong Kong and results of similar studies conducted in Europe and the United States, we provide evidence to show that Chinese consumers are more supportive of CSR. We also show that Carroll’s pyramid of responsibilities can be applied in China. We evaluated the importance placed by Chinese consumers on the four responsibilities of firms – economic, legal, ethical and philanthropic – and find that economic responsibilities are most important while philanthropic responsibilities are of least importance. The nature of these differences is important for firms intending to use corporate social responsibility for strategic purposes.     

中国企业国际化的影响因素及其战略选择

企业国际化研究企业如何向跨国企业演变发展,随着国际竞争环境的变化,中国企业的国际化战略也由内向国际化转向外向国际化,“走出去”成为企业的必然选择.在企业国际化的过程中,企业的技术水平、产品战略、海外投资的固定成本、母国与东道国的文化差异、东道国的管制与工业化程度等是企业国际化的主要影响因素.中国企业应该采取“差异化”、“本地化”及“渐进推进”等战略,以提升中国企业的国际竞争力.     

Ethics Failures in Corporate Financial Reporting

Fraudulent financial reporting, financial statements with errors so material as to require restatement, and biased reporting marred by defects such as managed earnings have plagued financial reporting in many countries in recent years. All of those failures are ethics failures that represent breaches of fiduciary duties by individuals who accepted responsibilities but did not fulfill them. The financial reporting system practiced in America is viewed by the parties involved in it as generally satisfactory. However, according to another view, the interests of those primarily and secondarily responsible for those reports conflict with the interests of the intended beneficiaries, or users, of the corporate financial statements. A more realistic view of the actual operation of that reporting system shows that it is fundamentally flawed. Primary responsibility for failures rests with top management and financial management of the reporting corporation who are so strongly motivated to render favorable reports on their stewardship that they neglect their fiduciary responsibilities to investors. Secondary responsibility falls on independent auditors who are so heavily influenced by enterprise management that they, too, fail in carrying out their responsibilities to users of the audited financial statements. Ethics compromises are also found in the performances of academic accountants and members of accounting standards-setting bodies. The conflict between managements interest in reporting its performance in a favorable light and investors interest in decision-useful financial information will always exist and require regulation. However, changes in those regulations and in the basic governance arrangements involving shareholders, management, and auditors could reduce the opportunities and temptations for failures in carrying out fiduciary responsibilities. Most importantly, the close relationships between auditors and management must be loosened in favor of closer relationships between auditors and investors.     

Multinational corporate social policy process for ethical responsibility in sub-Saharan Africa

The article identifies the challenges that multinational corporations (MNCs) from the developed world face in sub-Saharan Africa and examines the direct foreign-investment and development interests of the region. In light of these challenges and interests, it also explores answers to the question “What is to be done?” The occurrence of MNCs' operations in culturally pluralistic societies suggest that they use, as the basis for a corporation-formulated regional code of conduct, a value-based corporate social policy process. That process should embody utilitarian and situation ethics in the exercise of MNCs' prima facie operations and of their responsibilities to society. For the African normative environment, the appeal of this approach is substantiated by the notion that both utilitarian and situation ethics are at once consistent with the region's investment codes, development interests, and value systems. But more than that, utilitarian and situation ethics are consistent with corporate social policy process and can assist MNCs to meet effectively their social responsibilities by helping them reverse the economic stagnation of most of the continent. However, because deontological (that is, Kantian) ethics emphasize autonomous actions that satisfy individual goals, they are largely at odds with sub-Saharan African value systems that typically emphasize the ethnic group (heteronomy) rather than the self. MNCs would, therefore, do well to de-emphasize their use in the region.
