Corporate Social Responsibility

Why a Corporate Social Responsibility Award?

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is known by many names, such as Sustainability, Responsibility, or Corporate Communications, and has become an integral part of any corporation. What began as simple philanthropy has evolved into a vital business unit essential to corporate identity. Employees highly value a company's CSR actions when deciding where to work, and consumers often choose products based on how a company supports the community or the world at large. Companies recognise that attracting and retaining top talent depends on having an effective CSR programme and communicating it effectively to the world. CSR is now embedded into the mission of a company and is considered an essential part of its operations.

This award recognises a company operating in Taiwan that demonstrates excellence and innovation in its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme. The award is not dependent on a company’s size and is open to both local and foreign companies. The judges will evaluate not only the CSR programme itself but also how it is integrated into the business, and the benefits it brings to recipients, employees, and the wider network of stakeholders.
