Corporate Social Responsibility, beyond the legal

Corporate Social Responsibility CSR must seek continuous improvement, in turn generating added value for all its stakeholders, because it must go beyond legal requirements, must be voluntary and seek a balance between the social, economic and environmental impact generated by the organization (Cajiga). The elements that establish the concept of CSR do not express obedience to a specific type of organization, no matter their rationale, all have interest groups and dimensions that make the concept become a reality, such as economic, social and the ecological one is internal or external, this leads to each company establishing its own strategies and acting according to its context.
