CSR Assessment and Strategy

 

Canadian Business for Social Responsibility (CBSR) works with leading Canadian companies to support and advance their CSR strategies. 

 

Developing a robust CSR strategy allows you to manage social and environmental risks in an integrated way, alongside other business activities, so that interactions between various business lines reinforce your overall mission and values. This can have several positive impacts on your company’s bottom line, including:

  • Higher employee engagement, attraction and retention
  • Increased customer satisfaction and loyalty
  • Operational costs savings (i.e. energy efficiency, faster permitting)
  • Lower supply chain risk as well as higher product quality
  • Improved disclosure for investors and interested stakeholders
  • Stronger governance practices

CBSR advocates a stakeholder approach to CSR.  The initial assessment phase is a good opportunity to identify, map, and interview key stakeholders as an input into a more formal engagement plan.

 

With a robust CSR assessment as a base, your organization will have a strong and informed baseline to develop a CSR strategy and implementation plan.

 

CBSR takes the information from your company’s CSR assessment and assists you to create a CSR framework and strategy for the unique structure and needs of your business. Your existing core strengths serve as building blocks towards the successful integration of CSR into all your functional areas.
