The purpose of this study is to understand the impact that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practices have on the perceived attractiveness of companies in the eyes of their employees and potential candidates. Moreover, this study assesses the mediation role that Extrinsic (EA) and Intrinsic Attributions (IA) about Corporate Volunteering (CV) have on this relationship.

Three hundred and five responses were collected in an online questionnaire and a Structural Equation Modelling model was designed to explain the proposed relationships of the variables under study.

The authors found that the IA that employees/candidates make about CV programs have a direct and positive impact on the company’s attractiveness; it was not possible to conclude the same about EA.

Unlike studies already existing in the area of corporate attractiveness that focus on the perspective of companies and customers, with a high focus on the organizational implementation of CSR and organizational benefits, this study has adopted a different perspective that focuses on the opinion of company employees, as well as the perspective of possible candidates. By not limiting participation to anyone, it covers a wide range of participants, allowing a broader knowledge of the labor market.

本研究的目的是理解“公司社会责任实践项目”(CSR)对员工及潜在员工构成的公司吸引力的影响。其次, 本研究评估“公司志愿服务”(CV)外在归因(EA)与内在归因(IA)在此关系上的中介作用。

线上问卷收集了305份回复, 并设计了一个结构方程模型来解释研究中变量之间的所设想的关系。

我们发现员工或潜在员工对公司志愿服务项目的内在归因对公司吸引力有直接、积极的影响; 外在归因则不可能。

与之前在公司吸引力领域已经存在的研究不同, 之前的研究专注于公司和顾客的角度, 尤其关注“公司社会责任实践项目”的组织实施和组织效益。本研究采用了一个不同的角度, 聚焦于公司员工以及未来的员工的看法。本研究不限制任何人的参与, 覆盖了大范围的参与者, 因此有助于对劳动力市场更广泛的了解。
