CSR przyszłości pomiędzy dyskusją akademicką a codziennością
2018
W niniejszym artykule pokrótce scharakteryzowana zostanie próba rekonstrukcji modelu CSR, która dotyczy pojawienia się w literaturze przedmiotu nowych konceptów jak (1) CSR 2.0, (2) CSV – Corporate Share Value (3) CSP – Corporate Social Performance. Na poziomie empirycznym teoretycy i praktycy z zakresu modelu odpowiedzialności biznesu zgadzają się zasadniczo iż model ten mający początki w praktyce wielkich przedsiębiorstw, w szczególności korporacji transnarodowych, powinien zostać również wdrożony przez inne podmioty, czyli małe i średnie przedsiębiorstwa. Celem artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytanie, czy małe i średnie przedsiębiorstwa scharakteryzować można jako przedsiębiorstwa realizujące…
Is the sustainability profile of FinTech companies a key driver of their value?
2022
[EN] The digitisation process is affecting all markets and raising consumer awareness about companies' sustainable behaviour. This work studies the effect of the sustainability profile of FinTech companies on the firm (market value and book value) as the factors that add value to investors and motivate their evolution in markets are still unknown. Using the KBW and Nasdaq FinTech Indices, and the NASDAQ Insurance Index (IXIS), we composed a panel of 95 companies over a 10-year period (2010-2019) with economic-financial variables and data about green certificates and sustainability indices. The applied methodology is based on dynamic (GMM-SYS) and static (PCSE) panel data models. Our results…

[EN] Drawing on the complexity theory and responding to the recent calls to use such creative methods that mix between a quantitative and qualitative approach. Therefore, this study fills the literature gap, adding novelties, showing evidence from the unexplored (or underexplored) European context and, consequently, shedding light to inconclusive results in previous research concerning the effect of audit committee (AC) and board characteristics on corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure by applying a novel research methodology: the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis. The data were collected from Eikon database for a sample of the top 69 non¿financial European companies (ba…
Work-life management for workforce maintenance: A qualitative comparative study
2020
Abstract Nowadays, owing to the changing nature of the work environment, with its ever-increasing demands, the quality of working life and its relationship with the individual’s wellbeing are recognized worldwide as vital for the workforce. This study analyzes the role of employees’ perception of five quality of working life attributes (specifically workplace conditions, working life autonomy, corporate citizenship, remuneration, and workplace diversity and inclusion) in ensuring the individual’s wellbeing focusing in particular on workers’ perception of work-life balance, working life opportunities, and health and wellness. The results of the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis reve…
Ethical consumerism: a view from Finland
2004
Business ethics and corporate social responsibility have gained more attention in recent years. However, the consumers’ perspective on ethics is still a little researched area. This study reports a survey ( n = 713) on the views of Finnish consumers about ethics in trade. Consumers’ willingness to promote business ethics as well as the obstacles to ethical consumption are investigated. The results of the study show that while the majority of the respondents regard business ethics as important, this attitude does not translate into their choice behaviour. Consumers are uncertain about which products and firms follow ethical rules and which do not. The most important obstacles to ethical cons…

Young people's perceptions of the responsibilities of organizations promoting financial capability
2014
Today's changing market environment demands financial capability even from young consumers. This article concentrates on the perceptions of young people on the roles and responsibilities of school, public, private and non-profit sector actors in promoting financial capability among the young. The qualitative data were collected via focus group discussions among young people aged 15–26 in schools and education institutions across Finland. Educational institutions play an important role in the everyday lives of the young but tend to focus on macro-finance issues in financial education. Banks are seen as professional actors promoting financial capability to the young, but their activities are …
Employee tenure and staff performance: The case of a social enterprise
2022
Abstract The literature on social enterprises has largely examined tradeoffs at the organizational level. In this study, we examine tradeoffs at the employee level. By analyzing the case of an Ecuadorian microfinance institution, we show that the tenure of social enterprise employees affects individual social and financial performance differently: the relationship between tenure and social performance is positive, whereas the relationship between tenure and financial performance is an inverted U-shape. Furthermore, our results suggest that social enterprise employees with the longest tenure are the least inclined to experience tradeoff tensions.
The paradoxical effects of communicating CSR activities: Why CSR communication has both positive and negative effects on the perception of a company’…
2022
Abstract Supporting societal goals and sustainable developments can help a company to be seen as socially responsible. This corporate social responsibility (CSR) must be communicated effectively as too intensive communication could negatively affect the company’s perception. These negative effects may be caused by an imbalance between the amount of CSR communication and the actual extent of CSR activities. Two experiments show that increased CSR communication has a negative indirect effect on perceptions of a company’s social responsibility, mediated by persuasive intent and reactance. However, depending on the extent of a company’s actual CSR activities, there is also a countervailing dire…
