Consequently, it is essential for a company to be socially aware and highly advisable that they do not ignore their role in sustainability, corporate stewardship, product stewardship, environmental or climate issues, and issues of personal safety. The corporate social responsibility team (CSR) is becoming more and more essential, even vital to growing a company and keeping it competitive.
