Abstract
Corporate responsibility refers to the duties corporations, organizations, and associations (groups of people organized around a common goal and acting as a single entity) have toward individuals and groups affected directly or indirectly by their decisions and activities. Regardless of the field in which they operate, corporations are set up such that they work in a social context that can be officially recognized by society.
