The
working conditions of all the employees must be a safe and comfortable place
for people to work because having a good working environment will enhance their
performance and work output. One of the stakeholders
of a business is its employees; therefore, it is the responsibility of the
management to ensure that the rights of its employees are properly
implemented. I believe that this has a
great effect on the employee’s loyalty towards the company since they will eventually
feel the presence of CSR and how they are given importance.
I have interned in two multi-national
companies already and I was able to view how Nestle and Chevron give importance
to its employees by ensuring work-life balance in their daily working lives. Moreover, both companies’ environment are
suitable to work in and at the same time, I find it as a place that can help
the employees lessen their stress and workload.
As a matter of fact, in Chevron, the Quality Control Manager roams
around the workplace almost every week to check the working environment for
every department. There was one time
wherein I accidentally left the box for the envelopes that I was using, and I
was immediately notified to fix it right away to avoid workplace hazard.
This is, indeed, related to our
class because it Corporate Social Responsibility also enhances human rights,
labor rights, and labor standards in the workplace. By focusing on improving the working
environment of the employees and practicing proper business ethics, the company
can attain better results from its employees, thus, positively affecting the
performance of the entire company.
