This new edition reflects the need for its readers to understand the non financial aspects of business – both from the perspective of corporate social responsibility and from the perspective of corporate reporting in the UK (and across the EU) in the form of the enhanced directors’ report.

This book has been written to enable Directors of a business to answer four questions:

• How is CSR relevant to my business
• How can I make CSR work for my business?
• What are the differences between CSR and Business Review reporting
• How can I ensure my Business Review reporting is most effective

It is written in four sections:

• Why to consider CSR approach for your business
• How to implement CSR in your business
• CSR and non financial reporting
• What to make CSR work for your business

The ICSA Corporate Social Responsibility Handbook, 2nd edition offers expert guidance to help businesses identify and assess relevant CSR issues. It clearly states the business case for introducing CSR, demonstrating the positive impact that CSR policies can have on the bottom line.

This handbook will be of enormous value to anyone trying to develop an effective CSR strategy. It aims to not only inform the reader about CSR but also help them maximise the benefit of CSR to their business.
