Answers of STUDY QUESTIONS
Answer 11: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
The flowchart has a series of questions responding the action being taken or not
taken and considerations for the answers. Managers can use it as a general
guideline for making social responsibility decisions that enhance the social
responsiveness of their organizations.
Answer 12: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
These approaches by Sethi entail behavior that reflects different degrees toward
performing social obligations. The three approaches center around to what
degree a business defines its social responsibility. While businesses using any of
the three approaches see business as having economic purposes, each views
societal goals in a different manner. For a business adhering to the social
obligation approach, economic purposes take priority. Social obligation is limited
to only legislated minimum.
In contrast, for a business adhering to the social responsibility approach, societal
goals are moved up in their priority to the point where the business will accept
and strive to fulfill extra legal societal responsibilities. Such a business will not,
however, sacrifice its economic interests for societal goals.
Finally, the social responsiveness approach characterizes a business that accepts
societal goals as part of its operations and sacrifices its economic interests in
actively working to overcome social problems or to prevent their appearance.
Answer 13: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
Planning social responsibility activities involves determining how the organization
will get where it wants to go in the area of social responsibility.
Answer 14: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
The process of turning social responsibility policy into action involves three
sequential phases. Each phase commits a successively larger share of the
organization to the chosen social obligation. In Phase 1, top management
formulates and communicates policy to all organizational members about social
obligation. In Phase 2, staff specialists aid top management in gathering
additional information related to meeting the social obligation. In Phase 3,
division management is brought into the process. While top management is
obtaining a commitment from organizational members to the social obligation and
creating realistic expectations of the effects such commitments will have on
productivity, staff specialists encourage responses within the organization to meet
the social obligation. The division management participates by actually
committing resources and modifying existing procedures so that appropriate
socially oriented activity can and will be performed in the organization.
Answer 15: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
For social responsibility activities, the manager must lead, communicate,
motivate, and work with groups to attain the social responsibility objectives.
Organizing for social responsibility activities establishes logical relationships
among all management system resources to meet social objectives in a manner
consistent with social responsibility plans of the management system.
Answer 17: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
There are four main areas in which any management system can take
measurements to control for social responsibility activities:
a. The economic function area deals with the economic contribution being made
by the management system to the benefit of society. It assesses such activities
as producing goods and services that society needs, paying fair wages, and
creating jobs.
b. The quality-of-life area deals with determining if the management system is
improving the general quality of life by the quality of its products and services, its
Answer 16: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
Influencing relates to the planning of social responsibility activities in the same
way as they do in the overall management system. To fulfill the influencing
function for social responsibility activities, the manager must lead, communicate,
motivate, and work with groups to attain the social responsibility objectives.
dealings with employees and customers, and its efforts to preserve the natural
environment.
c. The social investment area deals with the degree to which the organization is
investing its resources to solve social problems through aid to education,
charities, and the arts.
d. The problem-solving area deals with the degree to which the management
system deals with social problems as opposed to symptoms of these problems.
Answer 18: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
A social audit is the process of actually taking social responsibility measurements,
such as those noted in question 176. This provides management with an
assessment of management system performance in the social responsibility area.
Answer 19: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
Society can do several things to help business meet social obligations. Society
can set rules that are clear and consistent so that business knows the direction it
must take in this area. The rules themselves must be technically, as well as
economically, feasible. Rules which are technically unattainable for business or
unaffordable for society will only delay and complicate the burden of meeting
social responsibilities for business and society. Anything other than futureoriented
goals is counterproductive. Finally, society should make the rules goaloriented
and not prescriptive, and should leave it to the ingenuity of indus to
devise the best way to accomplish the ends desired.
Answer 20: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
Ethics is our concern for good behavior; our obligation to consider not only our
own well-being, but also that of other human beings.
Answer 21: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
The employment of ethical business practices can enhance overall corporate
health in three important areas: productivity, stakeholder relations, and
government regulation.
Answer 22: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
A code of ethics is a formal statement that acts as a guide for making decisions
and acting within an organization.
Answer 23: Your answer should be similar to the follow:
Managers can take steps to make their organizations more ethical workplaces.
One common step is the creation, distribution, and continual improvement of the
company's code of ethics. Other steps a manager can take to create ethical
workplaces is to create a special office or department with the responsibility of
ensuring ethical practices within the organization and to furnish organization
members with appropriate training.
