Explanation:

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be defined as a strategic management concept which typically involves socially contributing to the growth and development of the people, community and the world at large. Thus, it's an organization's obligation to act in a manner that benefits and adds significant value to the society, usually it has its business operations.

Some examples of CSR programs are building of roads, provision of electricity, water supply, establishing health care centers, awarding scholarships etc.

In addition to making profits and maximizing shareholders, organizations are required to lessen negative environmental impact or degradation and provide social amenities such as pipe-borne water, electricity, roads, etc.

According to Carroll, the four (4) main levels of an organization's pyramid of corporate social responsibility are;

I. Legal

II. Economic.

III. Philanthropic.

IV. Ethical.

However, an organization has taken a defensive stance to social responsibility when it decide to meet only minimum legal requirements in its commitments to individuals and groups in a social environment.

On the other hand, a proactive stance can be defined as voluntary business practices adopted by an organization or business firm beyond the standard regulatory practice, so as to actively enhance and facilitate growth and development in a society.
