Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is the attitude of a firm where a company voluntarily assumes co-responsibility for the well-being and sustainable development of society, while it maintains its competitiveness and profitability, which are not two conflicting goals. It is a commitment to behave responsibly towards the environment in which the company does business. Especially in case of agricultural holdings, the relationship towards nature is important. Large agricultural companies are still sometimes seen as polluters or damagers of the countryside despite that not usually being true. Therefore, research is oriented on the com-panies as their land management has a high impact on the countryside and the locality in which they operate in. Previous studies in the Czech Republic included only small and medium agricultural firms. Čerkasov et al. ( 2016) found out, based on structured interviews, that the manifestations of social responsibility often belong to economic and social areas. Activities in environmental area did not exceed the legal framework and many of the activities emerged from the nature of agricultural production. We have compared those findings with the situation in large agricultural companies.

“…Practically, their main objective is to create sustainable relations with all the actors involved in the company's activity, along with the economic responsibility [15], highlighting and promoting its values, the respect for the locals [16], the territory, and the environment. Each new business should include in its development plan different social responsibility elements [17]. The entry of social responsibility into the community will inevitably influence it [18].…”

This article addresses two perspectives of responsibility: as an element of taking action and as ethics towards one’s fellow citizens and the environment. These aspects have been used since the beginning of the pandemic. In this context, we wanted to determine the mechanism that triggers increased responsibility. We have considered two possible initial processes: one external and one learned from the family in early childhood or trained/learned during studies. Based on that, three concerns were brought to our attention. First, we targeted the impact of the pandemic on respondents’ degree of responsibility for their livelihoods. Second, we wanted to determine to what extent the new situation increased the interviewee’s involvement only in some activities. The third statement called into question the causal relation between the influence of extrinsic elements on a highly educated person’s degree of responsibility. The focus group was the active population of the industrial sector in the North–West border area of Romania. The data obtained are the result of the sociological survey implementation. The people in the region were subject to several new limiting external factors. The results show that the unique challenges up to that point made them more accountable for their actions in a situation that affected them directly (pandemic). It also can be underlined that lifelong education is important in forming healthy principles of responsibility.

“…Este enfoque se fundamenta en la protección del medioambiente y la participación de los colaboradores en esta causa. Con el propósito de lograr esta meta, se están implementando medidas de prevención y mitigación destinadas a la conservación sostenible de los recursos naturales, creando así una cultura de cuidado ambiental arraigada dentro de las empresas (Sergeeva y Kapetanaki 2022).…”

Actualmente, las organizaciones se encargan de comprometerse con acciones que favorezcan la conservación del medioambiente. El presente estudio explora un acompañamiento para la gestión del componente ambiental en las actividades desarrolladas de una organización ubicada en Armenia, Quindío-Colombia. Se realizaron reuniones interinstitucionales en las que se realizó un reconocimiento, diálogo y taller con los colaboradores. Se utilizó una lista de verificación previamente validada. Posteriormente, se realizó un análisis descriptivo de los resultados obtenidos. Se encontró que el 40% de los componentes carecen de acciones para la conservación del medioambiente. De tal manera, el acompañamiento arrojó que los colaboradores se comprometieron a aprovechar los residuos sólidos, ahorrar agua y energía. El acompañamiento derivó en tres acciones estratégicas para los componentes de agua, suelo y energía. La organización demostró un gran interés en el proceso y se logró establecer un vínculo intersectorial. El estudio plantea una línea base de gestión del componente ambiental del área de estudio; derivó en un acompañamiento y participación representativa con avances significativos hacia la conservación del medioambiente dentro de la organización.
