Response to Tammy Chou

In response to the question that was asked of the four components of Corporate Social Responsibility, I believe that the responsibility that is right for society is the ethical responsibilities.

Economic responsibilities aren't always in everyones best interest; not every runs on soul profit. Legal responsibilities are too straight forward, there is no room for error. Philanthropic responsibilities are judged completely on an individuals idea of being a 'good' citizen.

Ethic responsibilities are simple, they are three things: right, just, and fair. Also, avoid harm. If a corporate office and justify that what they do is right just and fair in come way, they will be able to partake in benefiting themselves and society. Ethical is about doing whatever means necessary to avoid harm; in turn doing what it can to benefit a company.

When it comes to looking at these four components of Corporate Social Responsibility, do you also agree that there is one that benefit society? Or could it be that they are all necessary to keep it balanced?
