Corporate social responsibility management for sustainable development: A systematic literature review

This study aims to explore the role of corporate social responsibility (CSR) management in promoting sustainable growth. Using content and descriptive analysis, the study examines secondary data from research articles published in reputable journals. Key challenges in CSR management include aligning business goals with social and environmental objectives, evaluating the effectiveness of CSR initiatives, and addressing skepticism or resistance from stakeholders. The integration of CSR practices is essential for businesses to enhance their reputation and build trust with stakeholders, such as customers, employees, and investors. By addressing social, environmental, and economic issues, companies can foster sustainable development and strengthen community relationships. CSR practices also help businesses manage risks, comply with regulations, and avoid legal issues. Additionally, CSR initiatives can drive innovation by encouraging the creation of sustainable products and services, improve employee morale, and attract talent seeking socially responsible workplaces. Ultimately, CSR contributes to long-term value creation, enhances market competitiveness, and positions companies as leaders in ethical and responsible business practices.
