CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility)
What is CSR?
Corporate social responsibility describes the acceptance of social responsibility by a company. The legal requirements on social, ecological and also economic issues are exceeded and the company shows particular commitment in the areas of fair business practices, resource-conserving production, contributions to environmental and climate protection and employee-friendly personnel policies. However, the object of the consideration is not how the company uses its profit, but mainly under which conditions the profit was generated
