Corporate social responsibility (CSR) refers to a gradual process whereby an organization commits itself to behave ethically and play a significant role in improving the workforce’s quality of life, local communities, families, and society. For organizations to be successful, they need to associate themselves with corporate social responsibility (Al-Malkawi et al., 2018). The corporate social responsibilities that organizations should engage in include philanthropic efforts, supporting volunteer efforts, organization diversity, and labor practices, and environmental conservation.
