ABSTRACT
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an enormously complex field, and yet still an evolving subject. The study is focussing on the nature and current thinking about corporate social responsibility and related theories. Although difficult to define, new trends such as standardised reporting and management initiatives have emerged. Despite ample empirical studies the effects of CSR on companies and stakeholders are still unclear, nourishing the fierce dispute on the ‘if’ of CSR as well as the ‘hows’.
The main research body consists of empirical studies examining the relationship between corporate social performance (CSP) and corporate financial performance (CFP) link, but difficulties in measuring CSP and a lack of theory to explain the direction of causality have left the mystery unsolved. Following a less frequented path of research, this study examines the effect of CSP on employer attractiveness to job seekers which is considered to be one of the aspects through which a company can benefit from its CSR investments.
The literature, social identity theory and signalling theory are reviewed to explain a potential link between corporate social responsibility levels and employer attractiveness.
Using the S&P 500 as a base sample, data on CSP, financial performance and employer attractiveness was gathered from the most relevant sources. After highlighting the problems of measuring and interpreting CSP, descriptive statistical and hierarchical regression analysis are applied. This study finds little, but some indication that CSP contributes positively to employer attractiveness. The discussion offers several explanations and new approaches to the topic.
The study concludes and points at the development of new and more sophisticated techniques to measure CSP and interpret KLD data. Limitations and methodological weaknesses are identified.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Definition attempts
orporate social responsibility is very difficult to write about, for reasons that
will become clearer as this text progresses. This study attempts to scratch
the surface as much as possible within the imposed resource limitations,1 yet, due to
these same restrictions, some topics can only be given a superficial glance.
Corporate social responsibility is a highly controversial topic, which, despite
having been under examination in the literature for almost 40 years is still enduringly
popular, as both academic articles, and journal titles like Business and Society, Journal
of Business Ethics, Business and Society Review, Business Ethics Quarterly indicate
[Chart 1.2]. Every news story of supposedly bad (and sometimes good) business
conduct revives the discussion. Companies which have recently experienced public
attention for their business conduct include Shell (Brent Spar, 1995), Nike (sweatshops,
1998), McDonald’s (continuously for various reasons), Chiquita (child labour, 1997)
and more recently Apple (labour standards of contractors, August 20062), to name but a
few [Text 1.1].
In 1991 Wood (p.384) remarked that “Social Issues in Management is showing
signs […] of becoming a discipline-like, well defined area of study,” yet by 2006,
Lockett et al. (p.116) still categorise corporate social responsibility as a field of study
within management rather than a discipline of its own.3 Because the study of CSR
cannot as of yet claim “substantive/systematic distinctiveness” (ibid), and despite a long
research tradition, debate about the “nature of CSR knowledge” (ibid) continues, and
hence the study of CSR is generally seen rather in its infancy than nearing maturity.
This is also reflected by the lack of a universally agreed definition of corporate social
responsibility. Scholars are continuously proposing different definitions and synonyms
for very similar subjects, or inventing new terms with very small differences in
meaning.4

For example, Wood (1991, p.388) summarizes several CSR definitions that have
emerged over time, including the following:
Carroll (1979) declared, in a statement that proved to have broad appeal, that “the social responsibility of business encompass the economic, legal, ethical and discretionary expectations that society has of organizations at a point in time.”
Preston & Post (1975), in an equally popular formulation stated that business had public responsibility for their primary and secondary involvements with society, but not for social problems or issues unrelated to these involvements.
Frederick (1986) articulated the idea of CSR simply as follows: “Business corporations have an obligation to work for social betterment.” […]
Davis (1973) defined CSR as the firm’s “consideration of and response to, issues beyond the narrow economic, technical, and legal requirements of the firm [to] accomplish social benefits along with the traditional economic gains which the firm seeks.”
A popular, more recent definition stems from McWilliams and Siegel (2001, p.117)
who define CSR as
“actions that appear to advance the promotion of some social good beyond the immediate interests of the firm/shareholders and beyond legal requirements.”
That is, CSR activities are those that exceed compliance with respect to, e.g.,
environmental or social regulations, in order to create the perception or reality that these
firms are advancing a social good.
Buchholz (1991, p.19), tries to identify the key elements found in “most, if not all” of
the many CSR definitions; he concludes that
- Corporations have responsibilities that go beyond the production of goods and services at a profit
- These responsibilities involve helping to solve important social problems, especially those they have helped create
- Corporations have a broader constituency than stockholders alone
- Corporations have impacts that go beyond simple market place transactions
- Corporations serve a wider range of human values than can be captured by a sole focus on economic values.
An entire branch of CSR literature seems involved with the definition and
documentation of shifts in meaning (e.g. van Marrewijk, 2003; Garriga & Melé, 2004;
Ostas, 2001) backed up in regular intervals with reviews of the current state of
development of CSR (e.g. Locket et al., 2006; Griffin & Mahon, 1997). The reasons for
CSR’s inability to be defined may be deeply rooted. The fuzzy notion of CSR is formed
by hazy definitions and the lack of an agreed conceptual framework. Further the
difficulties may lie in the ‘soft’ and complex nature of the topic; Carroll (1994, p.14)
12
characterizes CSR as a dynamic, multi- and interdisciplinary field 5 with loose
boundaries, multiple memberships and perspectives, and wide breadth.
The confusion is enhanced by theories combining different approaches while
using the same terminology with different meanings at all levels and in every aspect of
the discussion (Garriga & Melé, 2004). This leads to a situation as described by Votaw
(1972, p.25):
“To some [CSR] conveys the idea of legal responsibility; to others, it means socially responsible behaviour in the ethical sense; to still others the meaning transmitted is that of ‘responsible for’ in a causal mode; many simply equate it with a charitable contribution; some take it to mean socially conscious; many of those who embrace it most fervently see it’s mere synonym for legitimacy in the context of belonging or being proper or valid; a few see a sort of fiduciary duty imposing higher standards of behaviour on businessmen than on citizens at large.”
Different cultures, value systems and personal belief structures necessarily lead to
different ideas of CSR between individuals and across groups. This view is also
supported by van Marrewijk (2003), and expressed pointedly by Votaw (1972, p.25):
“Corporate social responsibility means something, but not always the same thing to everybody.”6
Or, to use Vogel’s (2005, p.6) words: “[…] the reader should feel free to imagine
quotation marks everytime he or she encounters the word “responsible” or its
synonyms ethical, virtuous or social.”
Figure 1 Carroll’s Pyramid of corporate social responsibility
Components of CSR
Consequently, it is even less
clear what CSR means in practice for
corporate behaviour 7 (Sir Owen in
Henderson, 2001, p.12) - “there is no
solid and well developed consensus
which provides a basis for action”
(Henderson, 2001, p.42). One of the
most popular images in the CSR
literature canon is Carroll’s (1991)
5 drawing upon law, sociology, political science, philosophy/ethics, management, economics and more (Wood, 1991, p.384) 6 “This is why in Seattle, Genoa, Prague representatives of the Global Civil Society clashed with politicians and industrialists; their value systems do not align, there are conflicting truths and worldviews and opposite strategies as to how to deal with (their interpretation of) the situation.” (van Marrwijk, 2003, p.97) 7 Milton Moskowitz: “Looking over the history of corporate social responsibility, I can see it has consisted of 95 percent rhetoric and five percent action.” (quoted in Vogel, 2005, p.12)
ECONOMICResponsibilities

LEGALResponsibilities

and fair.
PHILANTHROPICResponsibilities

13
“pyramid of corporate social responsibility” which gives a first indication of the
different kinds of CSR (Figure 1).
Carroll’s pyramid also implies that some dimensions of CSR are more important
than others, or that some levels of CSR cannot be reached without first achieving the
previous ones. For example, without profit (economic), companies would not exist and
thus would not have the prospect of acting philanthropic.
CSR is a multidimensional construct (e.g. Waddock & Graves, 1997) and
although there is no consensus on the exact composition and the terms assigned to each
of these dimensions, Table 2 is an approximation of the most common categorisation,
also see [Table 1.4].
Table 2 Dimensions of Corporate Social Responsibility
Environment Governance Stakeholder (or Social)
Business Ethics Employees
Corporate Governance Community
Customers
Suppliers
This list does not contradict Carroll’s pyramid, rather these dimensions are a more
detailed representation of the pyramid’s two top levels. The self-evident ‘threshold
requirements,’ economic and legal responsibilities, have been excluded.
A second crucial notion related to CSR is corporate social performance (CSP).
When CSR is the noun, CSP is the adjective describing how well the organisation
handles its responsibilities. How to measure CSP will be discussed later.
There are several debates going on within the field of CSR; these should briefly
be outlined to provide context for any later discussion.
1.2 The emergence of CSR.
“The basic idea of corporate social responsibility is that business and society are
interwoven rather than distinct entities.” (Wood, 1991, p.695). Over time and with
growing affluence society’s expectations change (Werther & Chandler, 2006, p.13):
“In poor democracies, the general social well-being is focused on the necessities of life: food, shelter, transportation, education, medicine, social order, jobs, and the like. Governmental or self-imposed CSR restrictions add costs that poor societies can ill afford. As societies advance however, expectations change and the general social well-being is redefined. This ongoing redefinition and evolution of societal expectations causes the CSR response also to evolve. […] For example, the need for transportation evolves into a need for non-polluting forms of transportation as
14
society becomes more affluent. In time these expectations may evolve from a discretionary to a mandatory (legal) requirement.”
Changing societal expectations and demands indicate discontent with the view of
the corporation as a solely economic institution, and with the way capitalism allocates
resources today. Analogous to the process described in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs
(1968), society’s expectations seem to be striving for the next level as soon the former
has been fulfilled, moving up Carroll’s pyramid. Werther and Chandler (2006) illustrate
their argument for the emergence of CSR with the notion of “stakeholder
empowerment,” which accelerates with the arrival of globalisation8 and communication
technology such as the internet [Figure 1.3]. The public can indicate its social
preferences through their purchases, by indicating whom they are willing to work for,
and by where they choose to invest9 (Vogel, 2005, p.4).
1.3 Shareholder vs Stakeholder View
Today a war is raging between CSR-believers and free-market, laissez-faire
economists. On a continuum of CSR support, Friedman (1970),10 and most neoclassical
economists would occupy the most negative position:
"The doctrine of social responsibility […] is fundamentally subversive […] there is one and only one social responsibility of business - to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits so long as it stays within the rules of the game, which is to say, engages in open and free competition without deception or
fraud."
Friedman classifies non-profit maximizing
activities as theft, and as going against the
economic principle of efficient resource
allocation. He believes that having
managers involved in tasks beyond their
expertise goes against the interests of
companies’ principals, the shareholders.
Figure 3 A Firm’s Stakeholder groups
Somewhere on the other, but still not
anti-capitalist, end of the continuum,
8 “global brands provide a market-based vehicle for activists in on country to affect corporate practises in another, a strategy that effectively bypasses the WTO’s restrictions on governmental trade sanctions” (Vogel, 2005, p.9) 9 Socially Responsible Investment (SRI): “Indeed large institutional investors are becoming increasingly concerned with companies’ risk exposure relative to certain corporate social responsibility issues.” (Ruggie, 2004, p.513) 10 However Friedman’s comments were made at a time when it had become a common practice for businesses to donate a percentage (5%) of pre-tax earnings (Vogel, 2005, p.18). But Friedman’s position is still supported by scholars such as Henderson (2001) today.
Economic Stakeholders- Customers- CreditoArs- Distributors- Suppliers
OrganisationalStakeholders- Employees- Managers- Stockholders- Unions
Societal Stakeholders- Communities- Government and Regulators- Nonprofuts and NGOs- Environment
15
Freeman (1984) developed stakeholder11 theory, which was quickly picked up as a pillar
of corporate social responsibility.12 “Although it remains contested, the principle is
taking hold that transnational firms […] ought to be held accountable not only to their
shareholders, but also to a broader community of stakeholders who are affected by their
decisions and behaviour” (Ruggie, 2004, p.512). “According to this view, the activities
of companies […] impinge in a variety of ways on the health of the societies in which
they operate, and on the environment. In return for the freedom which they enjoy in
pursuing their commercial objectives, companies must recognise these externalities and
adjust their behaviour accordingly” (Sir Owen in Henderson, 2001, p.12). CSR
proponents fear that companies use resources for their products which are not reflected
in the market prices charged (negative externalities – e.g. pollution). Due to these
hidden costs, profit is not a good measure of the firm’s contribution to overall welfare.
CSR attempts to hold businesses accountable for such costs. It is fair to say that
proponents of CSR would agree with Brundtlands’s (1987) widely agreed definition of
“sustainable development,” that is:
“Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
Neither Friedman (1970) nor Henderson (2001) denies the existence of externalities,
possible market failure and social problems, but both regard it as the state’s role to
address these.13
Table 4 Drivers of CSR
A third group supports CSR
because they believe in “doing well
by doing good,” also referred to as
the “business case.” The positive
effects of CSR are thought to offer a
rationale for investing in it. 14
Several business aspects such as
human resources, risk management,
branding, image, reputation, and
ultimately financial performance,
11 “any group or individual who can affect or is affected by the achievement of the organization’s objective” (Freeman, 1984) 12 John Kenneth Galbraith Andrew Carnegie would probably also be supporting this end of the continuum. 13 Vogel (2005) expresses doubts about Friedman’s serenity behind this statement, given Friedman’s preference for deregulation. 14 Although table 4 seems to indicate strong business support for CSR, Bishop (quoted in Salls, 2004) said that CEOs would not publicly give into admitting that companies exist for profitmaximisation due to public and media pressure.

are believed to be supported by strong CSR initiatives. If a link between CSP and
corporate financial performance (CFP) could be proven it would solve the current
controversy (Margolis & Walsh, 2001, p.4-5):
“Empirical evidence of a positive causal relationship moving from social performance to financial performance also promises […] a solution to endless debate about the role and responsibility of the firm. […] Those who construe a narrow economic role for the firm would embrace a financial rationale for socially responsible practices, and those with a broader conception of the firm’s responsibility would not need to appeal to an alternative control of the firm’s purpose to justify expansive responsibilities”
Kofi Annan (2001, quoted in Margolis & Walsh, 2003, p.273) expresses confidence in
this assumption when he refers to CSR as
“a happy convergence between what your shareholders want and what is best for millions of people the world over”
Recently, even Arnold Schwarzenegger was
referencing the business case when talking about the
introduction of new legislation15 saying that fighting global
warming makes good business as well as environmental
sense (Gumble, 01/09/2006). The legislation includes the
creation of a system of emissions credits. If a company
exceeds its targets on emission reduction, it can sell the
excess to a company lagging behind, creating a financial
incentive for business to do their bit for the environment.
Previously, BP had used such as system within the
organisation and between business divisions with
tremendous success (Malone, 2004). This is a good example of how market forces can
be used to drive CSR.16
1.4 Government Involvement vs Self Regulation
Presently, in most countries CSR is practised voluntarily on companies’ initiatives
alone, except in France where publishing a social responsibility report is mandatory.
However, it should also be noted that, like contracts due to bounded rationality
(Simon, 1957), legislation can never be complete. This is where business ethics will
matter. When companies have the choice to follow the letter or the spirit of the law,17
15 An example of legalising previously voluntary CSR, as discussed in section 1.2. It also illustrates the scope for and demand for CSR 16 One problem looming is the allocation of emission reduction targets. 17 the terms “creative compliance” or “creative accounting” indicate that occasionally businesses like to bend the rules.
17
society and government will expect them to show goodwill and follow the spirit, rather
than exploit loopholes.
Government regulation carries the risk of over-regulation (Henderson, 2001),
while voluntary self-regulation can be regarded as industry’s defence mechanism
against more (expensive) government regulation (Ashby, 2003). Because CSR is not
verifiable it often has a bitter connotation of being more about image building, cheap
talk, or PR activity. Klawitter (2006) gives an example how Chiquita’s PR activities
resulted in very favourable press coverage while NGO Human Rights Watch still finds
evidence of child labour on plantations supplying Chiquita. Klawitter (ibid) quotes an
estimate according to which 40% of the information of newspapers originate from PR
agencies or companies’ marketing departments.
Yet some companies have declared ethics as a foundation of their business model
(cf. Bodyshop, Fairtrade) which differentiates their product from others on the market.
Whether it is ethical to use ethics as a differentiating characteristic to make a profit is
beyond the scope of this study. Can CSR, if openly declared as a way of differentiation,
and hence profit maximisation be compared with intrinsically, altruistically motivated
corporate responsibility?
1.5 Standardisation & Reporting
The lack of a common understanding and a comprehensive CSR definition has not
prevented the emergence of standards for many aspects of CSR [Text 1.7]. Generally
European companies are more engaged in CSR than their American
counterparts.
SA8000, developed by Social Accountability International
(SAI),18 is a way for retailers, brand companies, suppliers and other
organizations to maintain just and decent working conditions
throughout the supply chain. Companies that have sufficiently demonstrated that they
have adhered to the various requirements are awarded the respective certification.
ISO 9000, and ISO 1400, both developed by the International Organization for
Standardization19 are management systems concerned with “quality management” and
“environmental management” respectively while OHSAS18001
covers health and safety issues.
AA1000 20 sets guidelines for the quality of social and ethical accounting
processes, along with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) 21 for the quality of 18 http://www.sa-intl.org/ 19 http://www.iso.org/
18
sustainability reporting. The standards are complementary, with GRI providing a
framework with which to evaluate CSR and to capture data on CSR performance.
(Bhimani & Soonawalla, 2005, p.170) [Table 1.4].
The United Nations’ initiative, called Global Compact22
and officially launched in July 2000, established their own set
of global norms for responsible corporate conduct consisting
of ten rules [Text 1.5]. To date this initiative counts 2,500 signatories in 90 countries.
The emergence of such standards and independent auditing of companies’ non-
financial reports illustrates business’ desire to increase credibility and
to counter the notion that CSR reports are meaningless PR activities.
Again, this short list illustrates that like academic definitions, NGOs
are tinkering with their own reporting standard (cf Context, 2006).
At the legal international level initiatives such as the Kyoto
protocol, or attempts by the EU (Greenpaper, 2001) to initiate the
establishment of international CSR reporting standards have
emerged.
1.6 Research Agenda
This study is trying to investigate the effect of CSP on the firm, hence the unit of
analysis is the firm. Instead of following the widely used trail of CSP-CFP studies, this
text will follow a less frequented side path in order to be able to make a contribution to
the literature. While a CSP-CFP link cannot be proven nor explained at present, some
theoretical sub-mechanisms have been put forward that could validate the business case
(section 1.3). The best way forward seems to be the investigation of the hypothesised
micro-workings of an eventual business case. So far, the research into these has been
limited. Next to branding and image enhancement, CSR’s potential effects to attracting
a larger applicant pool are thought to have the highest potential of contributing to the
business case. Thus, the remainder of the study will explore the CSP-employer
attractiveness relationship. The literature review below still discusses the CSP-CFP

2 LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 The CSP – CFP link
he most prominent question in the field of CSR research is its effect on
corporate performance. From above, it is clear that the most important
(economic) driver of CSR is the argument that CSR is also good business. Amongst
CSR researchers, proving the CSP-CFP link is the ‘holy grail’ of their research efforts,
and scholars of business ethics hope for a positive link because it would justify their
area of teaching in business schools (Vogel, 2005, p.9). This is why “oceans of ink”
(ibid, p.11) have flowed into the search for an answer to this question. Margolis &
Walsh (2003, p.277-8):
If corporate social performance contributes to corporate social financial performance, then a firm’s resources are being used to advance the interests of shareholders, the rightful claimants in the economic contractarian model. Concerns about misallocation recede as well. If social performance is contributing to financial performance, then the firm is being used to advance the objective for which it is considered to be best suited, maximising wealth.
However, this does still not mean that investment into CSP is profit-maximising, nor
that no other investment would yield a higher return. Between 1972 and 2002, 127
published studies empirically examined the relationship between companies’ social
performance and their financial performance (ibid). These have yielded positive,
negative and neutral relationships. An aggregative count of the results reported by these
studies would lead one to believe that a positive relationship between CSP and CFP
exists (Chart 5), [Chart 2.2, Table 2.5]. However methodologies and data vary widely
between all studies. Margolis & Walsh (2001, p.13):
“The clear signal that emerges from thirty years of academic research – indicating that a positive relationship exists between social performance and financial performance – must be treated with caution. Serious methodological concerns have been raised about many of the studies and about efforts to aggregate results […] Questions arise about the connection between the underlying CSP construct and efforts to measure it; the validity of the measures used to assess social performance; the diversity of measures used to assess financial performance; and the direction and mechanism of causation, given the heavy reliance on correlation analyses and contemporaneous financial and social performance data.”

CSP as Independent Variable
CSP as Dependent Variable
Source: Margolis & Walsh, 2003
McWilliams and Siegel (2000, p.604) criticise the typical econometric model used to
examine the CSP-CFP relationship, quoting Waddock & Graves (1997) as an example,
see below. Most models follow a very similar or even simpler setup:
PERFi = f(CSPi, SIZEi, Riski, INDi) where PERFi
= long-run economic or financial performance of firm i
(measure of accounting profits) CSPi = a proxy for corporate social responsibility of firm i (based on
an index of social performance SIZEi = a proxy for the size of the firm i Riski = a proxy for the “risk” of the firm i (debt/asset ratio) INDi = Industry of firm i (4 digit SIC code)
In this case, McWilliams and Siegel (ibid) argue that the omission of a variable for
company ‘R&D intensity’ renders the model invalid and go on to demonstrate that
including ‘R&D intensity’ results in a neutral relationship, whereas Waddock & Graves
(ibid) previously found a positive relationship. This example is given to illustrate the
fragility of current CSR research.
Glancing at the statistics shows the differences in sample bases [Chart 2.3], CSP
measures used [Chart 2.4], and financial measures used [Table 2.5] – yet there is not
consensus on the causality of the relationship (Chart 5). The relevant theoretical
explanations for the sign of the CSP-CFP relationship, and the direction of causation put
forward so far, are briefly outlined below.
Sign of the relationship and Causality
Sign of the relationship The beliefs underlying each case have already been
addressed in section 1.3. Friedman’s shareholder view does not recognize measurable
economic benefits, only costs; the relationship is negative.
21
A positive association implies that the costs of CSP are lower then the benefits.
For example, good human resources management may be inexpensive while creating a
competitive advantage for the company against less responsible firms. Being regarded
as a good employer or being ranked in lists such as Fortune’s 100 best companies to
work for might facilitate the recruitment of top talent at low cost (Waddock and Graves,
1997; Moskowitz, 1972). A company being a good place to work seems to be reflected
in share price performance at least, see [Chart 2.11].
However, the mixed empirical findings do not preclude the idea that there is no
relationship. Ullmann (1985) argues that the relationship could be indirect, and that the
number of factors influencing profitability is so large that there is not even a reason to
expect a direct causal relationship. This also suggests that a relationship might be more
easily proven or disproven through the analysis of mirco-factors such as branding and
recruiting. The inaccuracies in the measurement of CSP might be another factor
preventing the tracing of a direct relationship.
CSP as the independent variable: Good management23 According to this theory,
there is a high correlation between good management practice and CSP. Improving
stakeholder relationships results in better overall performance. For example, good
employee relations might be expected to enhance morale, productivity, and employee
satisfaction. Positive customer perceptions may lead to increased sales or reduced
stakeholder management cost. CSP is both a predictor and consequence of firm
financial performance, forming a simultaneous relationship or a kind of ‘virtuous
circle’.
CSP as the dependent variable: Slack resources24 Better financial performance
results in the availability of ‘slack resources’ which provide the opportunity to invest
into CSR activities. This theory assumes CSR to be dependent variable. [Table 2.1 and
Table 2.3] show the discussed models and some alternatives models.
Margolis and Walsh (2003) complain about the ongoing flow of quantitative
studies [Chart 2.1], while the field is lacking a theoretical exploration of the issue.
To avoid confounding effects, some study specific industries to isolate industry
effects, while some, to avoid the problem of quantifying CSP, have conducted
qualitative reviews of industries. But these have low applicability outside the relevant
23 Paragraph based on an explanation as given in Waddock & Graves, 1997, p.306-7 24 based on Waddock & Graves, 1997, p.306
22
industries (e.g. Frynas, 2005; Simpson & Kohers, 2002). Others have studied single
dimensions of CSR, such as the environmental aspect only.
One aspect of the business case is CSR’s influence on employer attractiveness and
reputation. Compared with the more than hundred studies on the CSP-CFP link, little
attention has focused on the narrow area of recruiting. The literature review will look
briefly at the psychological aspects of job-selection – although a glimpse at this
literature indicates that the decision-making process is extremely complicated, with
more factors involved than described here. Two strings of theory are commonly
employed by current research on this issue to explain the forces that drive employer
attractiveness: signaling theory and social identity theory.
2.2 Signaling Theory
The majority of papers, inter alia Turban & Greening, (1997), Greening and
Turban, (2000) and Backhaus et al., (2002, p.295-6) draw on signalling theory (ibid):
“[…]Wanous (1992) pointed out that job seekers require complete and accurate organizational information to match their needs properly with organizational offerings. However, job seekers usually have limited information about organizations and must use bits and pieces of data to construct a view of what it would be like to work for an organization (Barber, 1998). Organizational characteristics have been shown to be indicative of personnel practices (Jackson et al., 1989), and job seekers tend to use these characteristics as clues. This use of organizational attributes as predictors of working conditions is captured under the rubric of signaling theory. Signaling theory suggests that individuals use various clues, dropped by the firm, to draw conclusions about the firm’s intentions or actions (Srivastava & Lurie, 2001). In the organizational choice process, prospective employees use any available information to improve their efforts to make a rational decision (Wanous, 1992). […] Information about certain CSP dimensions may provide the data a job seeker needs to assess the appropriateness of the employer.”
2.3 Social Identity Theory
Social identity theory, developed by Henri Tajfel (1979) and John Turner,
suggests that individuals derive their self-concept partly from their membership in
certain social groups. Assuming that this behaviour also applies to the membership of an
organisation, firms with high CSP are more attractive as employers because prospective
employees expect their self-concept to be enhanced through their association with such
firms. Backhaus et al., (2002, p.296):
In other words, we define our identity in terms of our group membership, and enhance our self-esteem by comparing our group to lesser quality groups (Stets & Burke, 2000). The successes and reputation of our group contribute to our self-concept (Underwood, Bond, & Baer, 2001). Our employer is an important source of self-concept (Tajfel, 1982). We enjoy the benefits of our employer’s positive
23
reputation but also suffer detrimental effects of our firm’s negative reputation (Dutton, Dukerich, & Harquail, 1994). This provides another foundation on which to argue that a firm’s CSP will be important to job seekers as a way of selecting a self-enhancing employment setting.”
2.4 Organizational Attraction
The job market is a very popular field of study and of high interest to businesses,
yet much remains to be learned (Barber, 1998). Previous research (quoted in Backhaus
et al., 2002) indicates that structural attributes, such as decentralized decision making
and performance pay, are increasing attractiveness. “Gatewood and associates (1993)
examined corporate image, another organizational characteristic, finding that
perception of an organization’s image is a significant predictor of decisions to pursue
employment with that company” (ibid).
Turban & Greening’s work (1997, 2000) is maybe the most prominent
contribution to the CSP/employer-attractiveness literature. They find a positive
relationship between published ratings of firms’ CSP and participants’ ratings of firms’
attractiveness, and conclude that perceptions of an organization’s attractivenes may be
influenced by CSP. Later, Greening and Turban (2000) supplied a student sample with
CSP ratings, testing the effects of that information on their perceptions of companies’
attractiveness, and again found a positive relationship. It should be remarked that in
both cases the relationships found were indicative, rather than evident.
Following one of Turban & Greening’s propositions, Albinger & Freeman (2002)
investigated different job-seeking populations and found a positive relationship between
CSP and companys’ attractiveness to high-choice applicants (MBA students), while
there was no significant relationship for medium (undergraduate) and low-choice
applicants (unemployed).
Backhaus et al. (2002) built on these studies and tested more differentiated
hypotheses of the nature of the CSP/employer-attractiveness link. Their overall findings
support the previous studies; in particular, they find that CSR is part of the image-
building process, and that some dimensions are more important to job-seekers than
others.
Most previous studies, while technically well-executed and sophisticated in the
statistical models used, either lack good CSP data or employer-attractiveness ratings.
For example, Albinger & Freeman (2002) obtain CSP measures through a survey of
business school faculty members – but without any of these individuals being industry
insiders, the ratings are bound to be mere ‘perceptions’ rather than actual CSP. While a
24
small scale like this allowed customary, multi stage experiment-like setups, the small
sample size does not give a definitive answer on the relationship between CSR and
employer attractiveness. Small sample sizes have not allowed the investigation of
industry-specific effects.
This study tries to test the relationship with an up-to-date and significant dataset
relying on observational data as much as possible. Some of the detailed implications and
differences between previous studies and this one will be detailed in later parts of the
dissertation.

3 METHODOLOGY
3.1 Data Selection & Collection
Corporate social performance
ith the problems of measuring CSP described above, collecting CSP data
posed itself as the most difficult problem in this research. The problems
of measuring CSP are not noted in the literature without reason! There is no single best
way to measure CSP and, over time, each new measure proposed has bared its own set
of weaknesses (Wolfe & Aupperle, 1991, quoted in Sharfman, 1996, p.287). The most
frequently used measures will briefly be outlined below:
As is clear from Margolis & Walsh’s CSP-CFP link literature survey, many CSP
measures have been used, some more frequently than others [Chart 2.4].
Fortune’s frequently-used America’s most admired companies ranking, for
example, measures eight categories, one of which is “responsibility to the community
and the environment.”25 However, this item is highly correlated to the overall reputation
score so it may not be a separate measure (Sharfman, 1996, p.288). One can also argue
that data collected through a survey amongst presumably well-informed managers
outside the focal firm rather produces the image that a particular firm has in the business
community (ibid, p.290). Brown and Perry propose an entire methodology for removing
the financial halo of Fortune’s ranking (1994) and for the CSP component in particular
(1995).
Content analyses of social reports published by the companies themselves would
require a valid coding scheme that eliminates the self-serving bias. The more
questionable the scheme, the more the research is open to criticism (Sharfman, 1996,
p.288). This is what standardised reporting initiatives as discussed above want to
address, but support is not yet universal, and might be avoided by those companies who
have skeletons in their closets.
25 the others are: innovation, people management, use of corporate assets, quality of management, financial soundness, long-term investment and quality of products/ services (source: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/mostadmired/best_worst/)

27
The approach taken for this study (and an increasing number of academic studies)
was to rely on CSP ratings provided by professional rating agencies. Several agencies
which collect Company CSP data were contacted to inquire about the availability of
data for the purpose of this study. After some considerable inquisitive efforts, access to
data from three sources could be secured:26
- A sample of 500 global companies rated on four dimensions27 by EIRIS [Text 3.1] which were part of a survey of the “Global 500 Most Responsible Companies” published in Japanese Newsweek.
- A sample of 463 European companies rated in three categories on six28 dimensions collected by Scoris. These companies were from the DJSTOXX600 universe.
- Access to Socrates, a database which contains company ratings on 7 dimensions29 on more than 3,000 public US companies collected by KLD [Text 3.1].
The rating methodologies between these three sources differ, as do the things that are
measured – sometimes even by dimensions of the same name. Confronted with the a
priori unexpected wide choice, the author decided to use the KLD data set for several
reasons:
- KLD data was used by a majority of previous studies on this topic [Chart 2.4]
- Access to the database meant that the sample of companies could be self-selected, here the S&P500 was chosen as the most representative sample.
- The other samples had shortcomings: the EIRIS sample was non random, no data for employer attractiveness could be found for European companies and both samples were mixing companies from different countries, a potential confounding factor.
Waddock & Graves (1997, p.307) summarise KLD data as follows:
“KLD is an independent rating service that focuses exclusively on assessment of corporate social performance across a range of dimensions related to stakeholder concerns. KLD’s rating scheme makes several advances beyond those used in earlier research. First, all companies in the S&P 500 are rated. Second, each company is rated on multiple attributes considered relevant to CSP. Third, a single group of researchers, working independently from the rated companies or any particular brokerage house, applies the same set of criteria to related companies. Fourth, the criteria are applied consistently across a wide range of companies, with data gathered from a range of sources, both internal and external to the firm.”

28
See also Appendix 3 on KLD’s methodology, data sources [Text 3.2] and rating
criteria [Text 3.4] and their detailed descriptions [Text 3.4]. As recently as 2002
(Backhaus et al., 2002), the most widely used rating method was to assign a score on a
scale from -2 (major concern), -1 (concern) to 0 (neutral) and +1 (strength) to +2 (major
strength) to each KLD CSP dimension, also used by Turban & Greening, (1997);
Waddock & Graves, (1997).
However the measures have improved over time. Today, the Socrates database30
to which the author had been given bespoke personal access for the purpose of this
study, reports a number of both strengths and concerns in seven major dimensions and
negative scores in five more areas of potential concern31 [Table 3.3]. These dimensions
are:
- Community
- Corporate Governance (new)
- Diversity
- Employee Relations
- Environment
- Human Rights (new)
- Product
- Negative screens: involvement with alcohol, tobacco, gambling, military, nuclear power
It must be noted, that virtually all previous research used only five of these dimensions.
Although the dimensions ‘human rights’ and ‘corporate governance’ were collected and
available in the database since 1991 (communication with KLD), previous researchers
have not used these dimensions because they were only partially available or not
labelled correctly (communication with Prof Waddock).
Similar to Sharfman’s conclusions (1996), it seems best to transform the raw KLD
data in several ways. The study will follow two approaches of displaying KLD scores.
KLD assigns a number of strengths (positive) and concerns (negative) to each
dimension (see [Table 3.5] for a worked example). For each firm, concerns are
subtracted from strengths along all dimensions for aggregate dimension scores. This
simple method was also used by Turban & Greening (1997).
Careful analysis of the KLD data and its rating methodology revealed that by
design some CSP dimensions have different possible maximum values,32 because they
30 http://web.kld.com/ 31 (-1) if present, (0) otherwise 32 See [Table 3.2], Since there are eight criteria for diversity strength the maximum value (if no concerns present) is eight, the human right dimension however can only achieve a maximum score of three.
29
are composed of differing numbers of criteria. Hence a standardisation of scores is
recommended.
This is taken account of through the second transformation, as used for the
publication Business Ethics’ 100 Best Corporate Citizens survey and also Garz et al.,
(2002) who work with Scoris’ CSP data, is to display dimensional KLD net ratings
(from above) as z-scores.33 This means that they are always relative scores, indicating
the distance from the population mean in number of standard deviations.34 Below the
formula and example for the transformation of the employee dimension into z-scores:

Garz et al. (2002, p.48):
“z-scores have the advantage that results can be interpreted simply, directly and unambiguously. A zero score means that a company tallies precisely with the market average”
These transformations of the data represent a significant improvement over the methods
of many other studies using KLD data.
To derive composite scores representing the firm’s entire CSP as a single number,
weighting individual dimensions can be considered. Although Waddock & Graves
(1997) weighted their dimensions, it is not recommended because the weighting will be
different for each stakeholder. Generally, composite scores should be avoided.
Alternatively, a new CSP could be constructed containing only the stakeholder group
relevant factors (here: job seekers). The Scoris data is used with sophisticated and
industry specific weighting systems (Garz, 2002), but it could not be applied to KLD’s
data, because the dimensions are arranged too differently. EIRIS created composite
scores for its data by simply adding all four scores.
In addition to the equal weight, non-standardised (net strengths) and standardised
transformation (z-scores), the author has applied an estimated subjective weighting,
informed by a month of research and based on other literature for internal use [Table
4.5].
33 “Z scores are a special application of the transformation rules. The z score for an item, indicates how far and in what direction, that item deviates from its distribution's mean, expressed in units of its distribution's standard deviation. The mathematics of the z score transformation are such that if every item in a distribution is converted to its z score, the transformed scores will necessarily have a mean of zero and a standard deviation of one.” http://www.animatedsoftware.com/statglos/sgzscore.htm (accessed: 06/09/2006) 34 Since the population is not available, the S&P500 sample mean will be substituted. Using the industry-mean would facilitate intra-industry comparisons.
30
Volumes could be, have been, and continue to be written on CSP measurement,
and on the transformation of KLD ratings into the most representative quantitative form.
For example, Sharfman (1996) examines the validity of KLD CSP ratings by comparing
it to Fortune’s rating. He finds only medium correlation (less than 50% of the variance
in either variable explained), which could stem from the fact that either KLD or Fortune
rankings are the better measure for CSP. The financial halo of Fortune’s most admired
survey could be a confounding factor. Still, this just shows that the validity of KLD
ratings is not guaranteed (Mistra, 2001; Vivien et al., 2004).
At the time of writing, new research emerged (Mattingly & Berman, March 2006)
which finds that using factor analysis, KLD dimension strengths and weaknesses should
be treated separately. Further they suggest that the six (they ignore human rights) factors
be reduced to four: institutional strengths and weaknesses and technical strengths and
weaknesses.
At the same time KLD ratings which assign a value of “1” for each strength or
concern, irrelevant of its salience, is a gross simplification. KLD indicated the
introduction of a new rating system in which a score of 1-3 can be assigned to each
strength or weakness - “swirling waters of CSP measurement” indeed (Carroll, 1991,
p.386)
Employer attractiveness
In the next step, these CSP ratings had to be matched with a suitable proxy for
employer attractiveness. Most previous studies (Table 6) had relied on small sample
student surveys. Rankings such as “Best Companies to Work for” published by
magazines such as The Times (UK), Fortune (US) and others were not suitable because
they measure the satisfaction of current35 employees and not the desire to work with a
company perceived by outsiders. Id est the CSR signal is perceived differently
Finally, suitable data was provided by Universum Communications. 36 Two
populations have been surveyed. The first sample includes 37,063 undergraduates from
207 US universities studying subjects in business, IT, engineering, science and the arts.
Albinger and Freeman (2000) would refer to this kind of job seeker as medium-choice
applicants.
4,996 MBA students from 43 US universities constitute the (~high-choice) second
sample. Both sets were collected in the time period between December 2005 and March
35 Methodology described in Great Places to Work, 2006, p.54 36 Universum Communications is an employer branding specialist, based in Philadelphia, which conducts yearly surveys and also provides the data for Fortune’s 100 Top MBA Employers ranking. The results are also featured in the Financial Times, CNN and other media outlets. Thanks to Mikael Eriksson.

2006. Data is also collected on gender, or can be broken down by area of study, but
these have not been requested.
Students were asked to name their Top5 “most desirable workplaces” as well as to
consider 15 to 25 companies that they would consider working for. This results in four
samples, UG ideal, UG considered (both 195 companies), MBA ideal, MBA considered,
(both 177 companies), see [Table 6.1 & Table 6.2] for a full list. 99 of the companies
that are on the ‘MBA ideal’ list are also in S&P500; likewise 93 companies which are in
the S&P500 appear on both the MBA and UG lists [Table 6-1 – 6.4]. The study will
focus primarily on the ‘MBA ideal’ sample. Having selected the S&P500 as the sample
base, only publicly traded companies37 primarily from the US are under investigation.
Fortune 100 Top MBA Employers also reports industry specific salary figures
[Table 6.7] that MBAs say they expect to receive. These have been assigned by hand to
the companies in the sample [Table 6.8], on an industry basis [Table 5.1]. Starting
salaries and five-years-time’s salaries were added and divided by two to take job
applicants’ long- as well as short-term considerations equally into account (variable
SalaryIndicator).
The advantage of picking the MBA ranking over the more broad undergraduate
rating is a better defined, more homogenous sample which could be matched with salary
data that was subsequently used as a control variable in the later regression. If
undergraduates of different study areas had been used it would have been very difficult
to determine weather a person would want work in with a company, say, because of its
management’s reputation or that of its engineering department – for example in the case
of chip manufaturer Intel. Because the sample consists only of MBA students, it is clear
that students aim for the same kind of jobs within a company.
Financial data
Financial data for the sample companies was taken from Standard & Poor’s
Compustat database (accessed through the Wharton Research Data Service) for the
(most recent) 200538 financial year and attached to the data series without modification.
Compustat is the most popular source of financial data and was also used in Turban &
Greening, (1996) and Waddock & Graves (1997) inter alia. The entire dataset (n=495)
containing all three elements can be found in Appendix 6 [Table 6.8].
37 Large-cap companies with >US$ 4billion marketcap 38 The following have been supplemented with 2004 financial data: Navistar International Corporation, Cintas Corporation, FedEx Corporation, NIKE, Inc., ConAgra Foods, Inc., General Mills Incorporated, Heinz (H.J.) Company, Bausch & Lomb Incorporated, Biomet, Inc., Medtronic, Inc., Paychex, Inc., CA, Inc., Oracle Corporation, Comverse Technology, Inc., Tektronix, Inc.
32
There are pros as well as cons of using the S&P500 as the sample base. On the
one hand information for this group of companies was more easily available (and may
be the only sample for which these information are available without further primary
research). Also, the potential for surveyed companies’ large size confounding the
comparison of companies of different size is avoided – although Orlitzky (2001) found
that company size had no effect on the CSP-CFP link.
On the other hand the sample excludes non-public companies, and this means
excluding some of the job-seekers’ favourite places to work (mainly consultancies, Mc
Kinsey, etc) [Chart 4.2]

4 ANALYSIS
4.1 Analysis & Findings
mployer attractiveness is assumed as the dependent variable, while CSP is
the predicting variable. In contrast to the CSR-CFP causality dilemma, the
possible direction of the causality seems clearer in this case, or at least has not been
disputed in the literature. The analysis will use multiple regression analysis and simple
descriptive statistics.

Table 7 shows descriptive statistics which have been calculated from non-standardised
KLD ratings. A full version is given in the Appendix, [Table 4.7].
Although Turban and Greening (1997, p.663) noted that (in their case) Pearson’s r
of the CSP dimensions amongst themselves did not exceed 0.48, in this dataset this
value is below 0.38, despite significance [Table 4.3]. But factor analysis has shown that
fewer variables would be required to express CSP in this set. However, to maintain the
dimension influence and comparability the dimensions continued to be treated
separately.
The correlation of factors with employer-attractiveness proxy ‘MBA ideal’ are the
most interesting ones. Four of the seven dimensions show significant relationships,
although ‘human rights’ is negatively correlated. Salary and company size (Total
Assets) show a strong correlation with ‘MBA Ideal’.
E
34
The high average for diversity for example can be explained by the fact that
KLD’s rating grid allows eight strengths, but only three concerns [Table 3.3] (also
discussed in section 2.3). In this case z-scores are more meaningful.
Looking at the standardised z-scores, which have also been broken down for each
industry in both the S&P500 (n=495) and the ‘MBA ideal’ (n=99) sample, one can see
in which categories the 100 favourite companies distinguish themselves from the
average S&P500 company (Chart 8) and see [Table 4.6].

Why are MBA’s favourite companies below S&P500 average on the dimensions
Corporate Governance, Product and Human Rights? Looking at the criteria for
Corporate Governance [Text 3.4], one has to wonder why ‘low CEO pay’ is considered
as necessarily ethical/responsible. It comes as no surprise that this characteristic fares
badly with ambitious MBA students (given the correlation of attractiveness with Salary
Table 7). KLD’s rating criteria seem very immature for the corporate governance
dimension, where criteria such as “position of chairman and CEO are held by different
persons” or “supervisory board independence” have established themselves as the
standard criteria for dimensions of the same name by other research agencies (e.g.
Scoris, EIRIS). Looking at the criteria for the other dimensions does not evoke any
obvious explanations.
The simple linear regression for the research question would look like this:

The setup follows and expands Turban & Greening (1997) with the additional data
available today. Three control variables – company size (total assets), profitability
(ROA) and industry salary (salary indicator) – are added in the first step, shown in
brackets above. This controls for the effects other than CSP that influence employer
attractiveness:
“Because we expected larger and more profitable firms to receive more publicity and to have greater name recognition, we controlled for organisation size and firm profitability. Turban and Keon (1993) presented evidence that an organization’s size influences its attractiveness and that reputation is related to profitability (Brown & Perry, 1994)”
Later on, Turban and Greening (ibid, p.668) find that more familiar firms were rated as
more attractive. More familiar firms were larger, had a more positive reputation, more
media exposure, larger advertising budgets and were more likely to recruit on campus.39
This suggests that the more people have heard about a firm, the more positively it is
regarded (ibid).
The seven CSP dimensions, including human rights and corporate governance are
added in the second step, (ibid, p.663):
“The change in r2 from step 1 to step 2 provides a test of whether the set of CSP dimensions explains variance in the dependent variable beyond what the control variables explain. The significance of the regression coefficients indicates whether the CSP dimensions explain unique variance in the dependent variable”
After the control step, the CSP dimensions (Environment and Human Rights)
explained more of the unique variance in employer attractiveness than the control
variables alone.40
In sum, these results indicate at best only weak support that CSP is related to
companies’ attractiveness. Given that only two dimensions could significantly add 39 Turban and Greening (1996, p.665-6) report negative correlations between unfamiliarity with firm and firm size (-0.25), media exposure (-0.45), advertising expenditure (-0.40), reputation (-0.52) and attractiveness as an employer (-0.49). However, company size has been noted as insignificant as an influence on CSP (Waddock & Graves, 1997, Orlitzky, 2001) 40 r2 is the percent (explained deviation) divided by (total deviation). This calculation yields a percentage. Each additional variable used in the equation can only increase, not decrease r2, even when the new variable causes the equation to become worse. In theory, using an infinite number of independent variables to explain the change in a dependent variable would result in an r2 of one. The adjusted r2 value however can decline in value if the contribution to the explained deviation by the additional variable is less than the impact on the degrees of freedom. The adjusted r2 is not a percentage. This study is using the adjusted r2.
36
explanatory value, suggests that job seekers can infer most other dimensions from
company size, profitability and salary. The KLD human rights dimension has not been
discussed in the literature before or been used in any empirical study. It is unclear why
this dimension in particular should be most relevant.

The idea to run a regression with a single overall CSP score has been rejected
because of the problems shown of calculating a fair overall CSP score, since there are
many ways to weigh stakeholder. Secondly, this way dimension differences remain
visible.

Inspired by Sharfman (1996), an exploratory post-hoc analysis of the validity of
KLD data has been attempted. To make use of the availability of CSP ratings from
different sources that the research process yielded, KLD ratings of 151 companies
37
which are in both sets (section 3.1) are correlated with their corresponding EIRIS
ratings. Only those dimensions that could be matched were compared. ‘KLD Total ‘06’
and ‘EIRIS Total ‘06’ both are simple, equal weighted totals of all other dimensions.
The results indicate a very weak and largely insignificant correlation. These could
be taken as primary research results: that CSP is difficult to measure and that definitions
vary. Perhaps different aspects of CSR are captured under different dimension
headings?
4.2 Discussion
The analysis has shown weak support for the CSP-employer attractiveness link.
At the same time there is no evidence for a negative link. Methodologically similar to
earlier studies, but with better data on employer attractiveness, improved KLD data and
an added control variable for salary, this study’s conclusions don’t support a CSP-
employer-attractiveness link and exhibit its fugitive characteristics. The post-hoc
analysis of KLD-EIRIS CSP correlation has supported the view of imprecise and fragile
CSP measures.
Possibly too many factors were being ignored, since this study did not take
account of company reputation, media exposure and eventual differences within the
sample population. It is not improbable that student first select their favourite industry
to work in, and then potentially after controlling for company reputation and salary,
pick the most ethical one.
The CSR element might play only a very minor role in the company selection
process. It would seem natural to assume that CSR is considered a threshold
requirement that, if above a certain acceptable level, does not matter. It does however
increase in importance if the CSR track record is either very bad or very good.
If CSR only plays a minor role, Ullmann’s (1985) CSP-CFP hypothesis that too
many variables are involved to be able to detect a direct relationship might also apply to
this link.
CSR is perceived in a very similar way as brands and company reputation are:
based on what people learn, they form an image in their minds. As Fortune’s most
admired companies ranking shows, perceptions and reality don’t always match. The
image is mainly fed by what companies choose to disclose, or sometimes what the
media decide to publish. How would the CSR perception of a company that donates £1
million anonymously differ from the one that does the same and spend another £10
million on publicising its donation (as it happens in the tobacco industry)?
38
CSR communication might matter more than (actual) performance. Reviewing the
literature, a model by Schuler & Cording (2006) explaining the CSP-CFP linkage was
discovered. Schuler and Cording (2006) put forward several explanatory behavioural
conditions of consumers which all have to be fulfilled for a business case to exist (i.e. a
positive CSP-CFP link). The author has adapted this model to the job market below.

adapted from Schuler & Cording, 2006
What are theapplicant’s values?Is it important towork for a high CSPfirm?
Is the applicant’s behaviourinfluenced?
Unless the job applicant had the opportunity to inform himself of a company’s CSP, his
decision cannot be influenced by the company’s CSR practice. Unless the individual
values the CSR exhibited by the company (value congruence!), or values CSR in
general, his decision cannot be influenced. In the final stage the impact has to be large
enough, for example to make the student write the company’s name on his list of TOP5
companies to work for. If a condition is not met at any stage, there is likely to be no
CSP-employer attractiveness relationship.
If the characteristic of the MBA student body is such that only few are informed
about CSR (should expect better from MBA students), few care about CSR (although
several studies contradict this [Table 2.9 & 2.10]), or behaviour is simply not changed
by the CSR signal (the temptation of money is too big?) then a neutral result would be
explained. Alternatively, Companies simply could not have made their CSR information
public.
39
4.3 Limitations
Limitations have been addressed throughout the study; where this wasn’t possible
they are discussed separately here.
A major limitation is the restrictive validity of the findings to the MBA student
body. Other studies have shown that different audiences (e.g. women, minorities,
undergraduates, already employed) perceive and behave differently.
It is known that companies in Fortune’s 100 Best companies to work for have by
far outperformed the average S&P500 stock [Chart 2.11], however no study, known to
the author, examines the performance of companies which are most attractive to job
seekers (here: MBAs). Hence the literature (including this study), which states that
being an attractive employer (to current employees) results in a competitive advantage
makes the assumption that this is the case. Are the extra applicants attracted of higher
quality than those who apply anyway? Does the screening process pick out these higher
quality entrants? It is difficult to imagine that large applicant pools could have negative
effects, but perhaps the real question is whether the extra effort (costs) of attracting
them pays off.
The time aspect addressed by some other studies has been completely ignored in
the analysis. It is argued that investments into CSR pay off at a later date or even only in
the very long term (cf Orlitzky et al., 2003), this study has consistently used the latest
figures that were available.
There also seems to a be fashion element involved in the popularity of some
companies. For example last year, Google was not amongst the Top100. This could
produce outliers which are difficult to account for – this has not been checked for.
Maybe CSP is not perceived by the majority of the job seeking population as it is
researched by KLD, or maybe the Fortune rating might achieve higher levels of
correlation; but this would likely propagate better PR rather than more investment into
CSR – see again the example of tobacco companies. The sample was assumed to be
homogeneously informed, yet this is not a realistic assumption. On the contrary,
knowledge about companies CSR is hypothesised to be very heterogeneous.
40
5 CONCLUSION
he results show a neutral image rather than a strongly positive link. Different
statistical methods and perspectives let indications of a relationship flash up
occasionally, but not always does this signal hold up to a second glance. It is not clear if
this is the result of blurry CSP measures, model misspecification, or if the link is just
too weak for detection amongst the general noise.
Theoretical explanations do exist, however, for both, a positive and a neutral link
as illustrated. The study concludes that the weak correlation found indicates that more
factors are involved which must be considered, and that the presented model shows a
starting point for this consideration.
5.1 Future Research
As hinted in the study and as evident from the limitations, the study is subject to
resource constraints that make a further visit to the topic promising. The study could be
expanded to non-MBA populations, or fine-tuned to take account of job applicants’ sex,
ethnicity, age, and current employment status. Does the experienced job-seeker select
differently? Does the nature of the company make a difference? Is there a public
company effect? How does the lack of an agency problem and shareholders influence
CSR? Since this study only examined public companies it would also be interesting to
examine if the CSR of privately-owned companies plays a different role, since there has
been no examination in the existing literature of the role which this company
characteristic might play.
Having proposed an adaptation of Schuler and Cording’s model as a possible
explanation, experimental research could attempt to test the hypothesised relationships.
Other studies (Margolis & Walsh, 2003) call for research into the causality of the
CSP-CFP link, or into the theoretical background. However, recently there have been
improvements in CSP measurement – or rather the methodology with which existing
data (in particular: KLD) can be transformed into meaningful quantitative figures has
gained in sophistication (Mattingly & Berman, 2006). Unfortunately, these results were
discovered too late to apply them to this study. At the same time KLD and other
agencies are refining their CSP measures.
T
41
Following the discusssion, I hypothesise that those companies who build their
image and publicise their CSR efforts are probably popular with job seekers. But those
companies that have CSR embedded in their culture are more likely to appear on
Fortune’s Best companies to work for.
Drawing on previous personal experience, CSR’s complexity and dynamic nature
seem to lend themselves very well to an analysis of the dynamics of CSR with the tools
of systems thinking, and it is surprising that this has not been attempted before.
It is certainly the case that more theoretical research into the CSR construct is
needed, for as least as long as CSR can’t be quantified.

Text 1.1 Examples of corporate social responsibility
o Nike, along with numerous other American and European firms that produce or sell apparel, footwear, sporting equipment, and toys, monitors working conditions in its supplier factories in developing countries.
o Ikea requires its rug suppliers in India to prohibit the employment of children and provides
families with financial assistance to help keep their children out of the labour market.
o Starbucks, as well as many other major coffee distributors and retailers, sell coffee bearing the Fair Trade label, which guarantees coffee producers an above-world-market price for their products.
o Home depot, along with major retailers of wood products in the United States and Europe,
no longer sells products harvested from old growth or endangered forests.
o British Petroleum, along with scores of other major firms in the United States and Europe, has significantly reduced its greenhouse gas emissions.
o Shell, along with many other major international extractive industry firms, has adopted
policies to address human rights and environmental abuses associated with its investments in developing countries.
o Citibank, along with other major financial institutions, has developed citeria for assessing the
environmental impact of its lending decisions in developing countries.
o PepsiCo, along with more than a dozen oil companies and consumer goods manufacturers, has withdrawn its investments from Burma because of human rights concerns.
o McDonald’s has adopted the European Union’s restrictions on the use of growth-promoting
antibiotics for its suppliers of beef and chicken in the United States.
o Chiquita has implemented stringent environmental practices for its suppliers of bananas in Central America.
o Timberland allows its employees to taken one week off with pay each year to work with local
charities. These are a all examples of corporate social responsibility or business virtue – that is, practices that improve the workplace and benefit society in ways that go beyond what companies are legally required to do.

Text 1.5 UN Global Impact Principles
The Ten Principles The Global Compact's ten principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption enjoy universal consensus and are derived from:
o The Universal Declaration of Human Rights o The International Labour Organization's Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at
Work o The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development o The United Nations Convention Against Corruption
The Global Compact asks companies to embrace, support and enact, within their sphere of influence, a set of core values in the areas of human rights, labour standards, the environment, and anti-corruption:
46
Human Rights Principle 1: Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights; and Principle 2: make sure that they are not complicit in human rights abuses.
Labour Standards
Principle 3: Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining; Principle 4: the elimination of all forms of forced and compulsory labour; Principle 5: the effective abolition of child labour; and Principle 6: the elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.
Environment
Principle 7: Businesses should support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges; Principle 8: undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility; and Principle 9: encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies
Anti-Corruption
Principle 10: Businesses should work against all forms of corruption, including extortion and bribery.

The KPMG International Survey of CSR Reporting is a triennial survey that analyses trends in CSR reporting in the world’s largest corporations. Altogether this fifth international CSR survey covers more than 1600 companies. Major survey findings include:
o corporate social responsibility have been steadily rising since 1993 and has substantially increased in that past three years. In 2005, 52% of G250 and 33% of N100 companies issued CSR reports, while it was only 45%, respectively 23% in 2002
o CSR reports have shifted from being purely environmentally focused in 1999 to being more sustainability focused (social, environmental and economic)
o although the majority of N100 companies in most countries still issue separate CSR reports, there has been an increase in the number of companies publishing CSR information as part of their annual reports
o at a national level, the top two countries in terms of CSR reporting are Japan (80%) and the UK (71%)
o business drivers for CSR are diverse, both economic (74%) and ethical (53%); the top three reported economic drivers are innovation & learning, employee’s motivation and risk management & reduction
o almost two-thirds of CR reports include a section on corporate governance, although most reports lack specifics on how CSR is structured and information on how governance policies are implemented within the organisation
o report content is most commonly decided based on GRI guidelines (40%) with only a fifth (21 percent) mentioning stakeholder feedback on the report
o yet, stakeholder dialogue was mentioned in almost 40 percent of reports with dialogue focused more on CSR policies than reporting
o compared with environmental issues coverage of social and economic sues and topics is far more superficial
o social topics are discussed, but while the majority of companies express their commitment to these issues reporting performance remains sketchy, possibly due to the lack of clear social indicators
o reporting on the supply chain is now common. Supplier issues are mentioned in a vast majority (80 percent) )of reports, albeit without specifics, as companies are increasingly being asked to extend their responsibility down their supply chain
o climate change, which was addressed in about 85% of reports, is the most pressing environmental issues of today.

Table 2.8 Explanatory frameworks and theories for the CSP-CFP link
Framework Description Empirical evidence
Social impact hypothesis(Cornell and Shapiro, 1987)Higher CSR leads to higher CFP
Meeting the needs of various non-owner stakeholders increases FP. Failure to meet less explicit needs of stakeholders generates market fears (i.e. affects company reputation), thus increasing a company’s risk premium and affecting FP. Actual ESP costs are minimal compared to the potential benefits.
Pava and Krausz (1996)Preston and O’Bannon (1997)
Available funds hypothesis or slack resources theory(Waddock and Graves, 1997b)Higher CFP leads to higher CSR
Superior FP enables companies to devote more resources to ESP.
McGuire et al. (1988)Kraft and Hage (1990)partially Moore (2001)
Positive synergy: ‘‘Virtuous circle’’(Waddock and Graves, 1997a)
Simultaneous relationship combining slack resources and good management Good management does most things well, including both ESP and FP. Good management and good ESP are synonymous when ESP is defined in terms of the stakeholder relationships considered important to the firm’s performance and not in terms of discretionary activities, e.g. philanthropy.
Empirically supported byPreston and O’Bannon (1997)Pava and Krausz (1996)Stanwick and Stanwick (1998)
Framework Description Empirical evidence
Supply and demand theory of the firm(McWilliams and Siegel, 2001)No link between CSR and CFP
Companies supply a demanded and unique level of ESP to maximize their profits.
Some studies found no or inconclusive correlations (Anderson and Frankle, 1980; Aupperle et al., 1985; Freedman and Jaggi, 1982)
Framework Description Empirical evidence
Trade-off hypothesis(Friedman, 1962)Higher CSR leads to lower CFP
Reflects Friedman’s neoclassical argument that firms have only one social responsibility, which is to increase profits. By increasing ESP, they unnecessarily incur costs and reduce their profitability.
Vance (1975)
Managerial opprtunism hypothesis(Preston & O'Bannon, 1997)Higher CFP leads to lower CSR
Managers will reduce expenditure on ESP when FP is strong to maximize personal compensation (which is tied to short-term FP).
Posner & Schmidt (1992)Alkhafaji (1989)
Negative synergy(Preston & O'Bannon, 1997)
Simultaneous relationship combining trade-off and managerial opportunism hypothesis
adapted from Salzmann et al. , 2005

Chart 2.11 Fortune "100 Best Companies to work for" vs. Stock Market
Independent financial analysts have studied the financial performance of "100 Best" companies beginning with the publication of the book, The 100 Best Companies to Work For in America (by Robert Levering and Milton Moskowitz, 1984 and 1993), and on an ongoing basis to accompany each of the "100 Best Companies" lists with Fortune since their inception in 1998. Using various profitability indicators, this data illustrates the extent to which the publicly traded 100 Best Companies consistently outperform major stock indices over the ten year periods preceding the publication of the 100 Best lists!

Appendix 3 KLD ratings criteria etc.
Text 3.1 Rating Companies Profiles
EIRiS, UK EIRiS is the UK’s oldest and largest specialist SRI-research company and they assess corporate activity in many areas. These cover both negative screening and, to a growing extent, also positive criteria with gradings of corporate performance. Later in 2001 they will introduce set of gradings for corporate environmental performance supplementing the existing evaluation of environmental management, policy and reporting. EIRiS has developed a software product, Ethical Portfolio Manager, that provides users with online access to its extensive database on 850 UK and 500 European companies. The services will be expanded to cover also the US, Asia-Pacific and Australasia before the end of this year. EIRiS supply SRI-information to many fundmanagers and rating organisations, including the newly started FTSE4Good family of indices. The screening process is mainly based on official company information and information collected through questionnaires. Direct contacts with the companies being evaluated are less frequent. KLD (Kinder Lydenberg Domini), US KLD is a US-based provider of social research for institutional investors who wish to integrate social criteria into their investment decisions. KLD has developed performance benchmarks for socially screened portfolios, e.g. the Domini 400 Social Index which was launched in 1990. KLD has also developed Socrates, a social investment database containing data on over 1600 companies. This includes profiles on over 3000 US corporations, including every company on the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, Russell 1000 and Russell 3000 indices. The social rating criteria are divided into two categories; social issues and industry involvement issues. • social issues analyze the impact of corporate behaviour on the environment and on stakeholders, including communities, employees, customers and suppliers. • Industry involvement issues identify companies that produce goods or services in specific markets of interest to social investors, e.g. involved in the production of tobacco, alcoholic beverages and weapons. On these issues, companies are designated as either involved or not. KLD presents its social research in two formats: Company Profiles and Industry Involvement Reports. The profi les contain ratings and analysis of each company focusing on strengths and concerns in the following areas; community, diversity, employee relations, environment, non-US operations and products. The evaluation of environmental performance is risk-oriented.

Text 3.2 Methodology: KLD’s proprietary disciplined research process
KLD’s Research Process KLD researches the social, environmental, and governance performance of corporations. KLD research relies on five distinct data sources to inform our ratings and analysis. Data are collected in a disciplined process from a wide variety of company, government, non-government organization and media sources. KLD tracks each company through more than 10,000 global media sources daily.
KLDKnowledge
Base
3 MediaOver 10,00 global newssources reviewed dail y.
CompanyDirect communication withcompany officers1
SiRiAccess to global research by10 global SRI research firmscovering non-US companies2
PublicAll major SEC filings reviewed,including 10-K, annual report,and proxy4
Government & NGO InformationIncluding: Department of Labo r, EPA, Human RightsWatch, OSHA, CANNICOR, CERIES, DoD5
Rating Approach Once the information is collected, KLD rates the social, environmental and governance performance of companies using a proprietary framework of positive and negative indicators. Companies are rated in seven major qualitative issue areas: Environment, Community, Corporate Governance, Diversity, Employee Relations, Human Rights and Product Quality and Safety. Analysts assign Strengths and Concerns associated with these issues, providing a social and environmental profile of companies. The business involvement screens are associated with activities that are controversial to certain social investors. KLD analysts specialize by sector. This improves the quality of analysis, improving sector insight to identify the key social, environmental and governance factors affecting peer companies. Monitoring and Updating Process KLD uses three processes to maintain the accuracy and currency of its research:
o Continuous updates: daily updates from media sources and special updates from NGOs and government data sources
o Fiscal year updates: annual updates from company public documents o Annual updates: a comprehensive annual review that includes analysis of all information
gathered throughout the year, review of company websites and CSR reports, and direct communication with the company, NGOs, and research partners.
Quality Assurance KLD senior analysts perform a quality review of every company profile at least once per year, edit daily updates for content and ratings quality, and mentor junior analysts. KLD’s Ratings Review Committee (RRC), composed of senior analysts and the Director of Research reviews controversial questions, maintains the currency of existing ratings, and develops new ratings as thought leaders for the business. KLD evaluates its methodology each year, using the experience of rating companies since 1988.

Text 3.6 CSRR-OS Standards
Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility Research Quality Standard (CSRR-QS 1.0) The voluntary Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility Research Quality Standard (CSRR-QS 1.0) has recently been launched. It is the first quality standard worked out at a sector level in the field of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and corporate environmental research and analysis. The standard aims to improve quality management systems, stimulate transparency, facilitate assurance processes and form the basis for further verification procedures. The standard sets out the following ten criteria for the assessment of companies: • sources must be independent, not just information supplied by companies; • global activities of companies must be taken into account; • best available techniques (BAT) should be used rather than minimum legal requirements; • environmental and social aspects must be taken into account; • a suitable balance must be found between environmental and social, quantitative and qualitative data
sources • content must be relevant; • information must be comparable to others; • stakeholders should be involved in the process as much as possible; • information must be up to date; • there should be transparency about methods. • (Information is available from www.csrr-qs.org) The CSRR-QS 1.0 was initiated, supported and funded by the European Commission, Employment and Social Affairs. Partners and signatories of the quality standard represent many parties with vested interests in the sector, including Avanzi, SERM, Ethibel and oekom research. The involvement of these companies reflects their recognition of the need to improve quality and credibility. It is difficult to make informed judgements regarding the success of this quality standard before we can review the results of the pilot. A recent spin-off of the CSRR-QS 1.0 is the launch of a new trade association, the Association for Independent Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility Research (AI CSRR). One of the main objectives of this association is to develop, promote and maintain professional standards, expertise and codes of conduct for the CSRR sector.

REFERENCES AND BIBLIOGRAPHY
Obviously not all works in the Bibliography have been read in toto, however the abstract of every work listed has been read and a copy is in the possession of the author or has been in the case of library books. The amount of literature has grown in an attempt to narrow the topic down and to ensure that no relevant document is omitted. Therefore not all of the Bibliography is relevant, but has been decisive in giving the search a push in the right direction. Also the many facets of corporate social responsibility case were documented in various areas of literature so that a broad range of issues had to be considered.
Every effort has been made to reference sources fully and correctly, however this was not always possible. In those cases if no substituting information could be found, ‘unknown’ has been used.
The Appendix also includes the entire research on CD-ROM (where digital), attached at the end of the document. Each paper that has been collected in digital format has been saved on the CD.
