Abstract: | This paper investigates the potential and actual contribution of corporate social responsibility (CSR) to gender equality
in a framework of gender mainstreaming (GM). It introduces GM as combining technical systems (monitoring, reporting, evaluating)
with political processes (women’s participation in decision-making) and considers the ways in which this is compatible with
CSR agendas. It examines the inclusion of gender equality criteria within three related CSR tools: human capital management
(HCM) reporting, CSR reporting guidelines, and socially responsible investment (SRI) criteria on employee and diversity issues.
Although evidence is found of gender equality information being requested within several CSR related reporting frameworks,
these requirements are mostly limited in scope, or remain optional elements. The nature and extent of relevant stakeholder
opportunities are investigated to explain this unfulfilled potential. |
