The current situation of Social Corporate Responsibility in Mexico

Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze how some Mexican companies implement Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). With the intention of generating information that promotes the incorporation of CSR, this work establishes the profile of the companies that implement CSR in Mexico and identifies the adoption model that they follow. Data related to company sector, size and location was gathered from three databases of firms that have implemented CSR. We can conclude that large companies incorporate CSR to a greater extent than small ones. In fact, participation in CSR is directly proportional to the size of the firm. It was also identified that the most used CSR model in Mexico is that of a Socially Responsible Company.
