Corporate Social Responsibility in Europe: Denmark, Hungary and Greece
Abstract
This paper aims to define the meaning of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the context of the European framework and examine three different European countries. The main elements which encompass the meaning of CSR focus on activities with social and environmental sensitiveness, on a voluntary basis. The paper analyses the dimensions of CSR and presents its benefits. Furthermore, the paper provides a brief description of the recent CSR activities in the European Union, and attempts a comparative analysis of CSR activities and their respective impacts on three European countries: Greece; Denmark; and Hungary. Finally, the paper concludes that the effective implementation of CSR strategy cannot follow strict rules and should be adjusted to the culture, needs and particularities of each country.

“To name a few research on responsibility in Greece, Metaxas and Tsavdaridou (2010), found that 34 per cent of CSR activities in the country were addressed as internal functions of the company (i.e. human resources) and 60 per cent of Greek organisations relate their CSR strategy with financial performance increase.”

“Other scholars note that citizenship is not only dependant on culture but it is strongly linked to the country's social system, thus the CSR strategy has to be adjusted accordingly (Metaxas and Tsavdaridou, 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
