“…The path analysis also shows that SP has a positive and significant effect on SA and, therefore, hypothesis H5 is accepted. In this respect, this study's findings are consistent with those of previous studies [9,24,52,54,55]. Aramco organizes its health and safety policies along with other HR policies to affirm the company's commitment to the well-being of its frontline workers.…”

“…Among South Korean frontline employees, there is a positive correlation between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and frontline workers' sustainable safety behaviors. Moreover, the SP creates entirely the frontline workers' SA [55]. Consequently, an effective SP is a powerful instrument to save frontline workers' lives and to make them accountable for adopting such policies in their workplaces.…”

Even in the best-case scenarios, working in the energy sector is tough because of the numerous possible risks that can arise during routine tasks. Therefore, the top priority of firms’ management is their responsibilities for their employees’ safety as they undertake various roles. In this study, the researchers investigated the effect of safety measures on the safety accountability (SA) of the Saudi Arabian Aramco Company’s frontline workers. The researchers used a quantitative approach and collected data through a survey questionnaire. We applied a random sampling technique to target the company’s frontline workers. Initially, the researchers distributed 450 questionnaires and received back 242 valid samples. This represented a 53% response rate. Next, the researchers applied Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to assess the directions of the hypothesized paths. This study’s findings demonstrate that safety policy (SP), safety training (ST), safety communication (SC), safety commitment (SCT) and safety incentives (SIs) have positive and significant effects on frontline workers’ safety accountability (SA). In addition, this study’s findings provide guidelines to policy makers, government authorities and company heads to implement further initiatives that adopt precautionary and safety measures to protect their frontline workers’ lives. Further, this study’s findings show the benefits of opening avenues of research to concentrate on safety measures such SP, ST, SC, SCT and SIs in order to create the frontline workers’ responsibilities for safety accountability (SA). Finally, the empirical evidence, which the researchers obtained from the Aramco Company’s frontline workers, adds to the depth of knowledge on this subject; validates the environmental science and management literature; and provides road maps for other companies to investigate safety challenges

“…Furthermore, prior studies demonstrated that employee perceptions of CSR practices as substantive (i.e., genuine and other-serving) were positively associated with increased work meaningfulness (Donia et al, 2019) and psychological safety (Ahmad et al, 2019). In addition, working for a socially responsible enterprise can raise employees' OBSE (Hur et al, 2022). Therefore, according to Kahn's (1990) model, we believe that employees' substantive CSR attributions will give rise to the three psychological antecedents of engagement.…”

Increasing evidences suggest that employees exhibit positive attitudinal and behavioral responses when they attribute their company’s demonstrations of corporate social responsibility as substantive. However, there has been insufficient investigation into the underlying psychological processes through which substantive corporate social responsibility attributions are associated with work engagement. Based on the model of psychological conditions for engagement, we proposed that attributions of substantive CSR are positively related to work engagement via work meaningfulness, psychological safety, and organization-based self-esteem. We collected two-wave time-lagged questionnaire data from 503 fulltime employees in mainland China. Hierarchical regression was conducted to test hypothesized model using SPSS Process macro. Results indicated that substantive corporate social responsibility attributions positively predicted work engagement; work meaningfulness, psychological safety and organization-based self-esteem parallel mediated this relationship. The findings contribute to the literature of well-being related outcomes of corporate social responsibility attributions and help a thorough understanding of antecedents of work engagement. It expands our knowledge of the new mechanisms in the relationship between corporate social responsibility attributions and work engagement. Our findings also could shed lights on the management for employees’ work engagement.

“…In the realization of self-value, social responsibility also depends on the realization of value. The results of environmental protection are not only conducive to the construction of a green social environment but also can reduce the damage to the ecosystem [21]. However, this kind of green behavior is limited, involving the domain, region, improvement time, and the consciousness of the enterprise itself.…”

Apple's high production costs, the rise of other Chinese technology brands and the change of Chinese consumption view have led to the unfavourable sales of Apple products. We suggest cutting the budgets of other departments to reduce production costs to solve the problem of reduced sales. Apple has well-organized management and leadership training programs, while focusing on employee welfare. However, the company may not pay enough attention to the staff training program of change. We propose that apple can provide employees with more intrinsic motivation, so that employees can learn to be flexible according to market demand. Apple adheres to the culture of minimalism and individualism, which brings extreme individualism and stubbornness that are not in line with the Chinese market. At the same time, Cook has even changed some of Apple's initial principle culture. These problems can be improved by integrating the characteristics of collectivistic culture and referring to the opinions of customers and experts to upgrade the system. Philanthropy and environmental protection are part of Apple's corporate strategy, which includes the maximization of Apple's interests behind those social responsibility.
