Effect of Corporate Social Responsibility on Community Resilience: Empirical Evidence in the Nickel Mining Industry in Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia

Abstract

Mining is an important industry in Indonesia. A nickel mining company has operated for almost 45 years. It has managed corporate social responsibility (CSR) programmes in the neighbouring local community. In addition to the environmental conservation and mitigation, as well as socioeconomic enhancement, the CSR is expected to nurture resilience in the local communities. This study’s goal is to examine the effect of CSR on community resilience (COM-R) in the surrounding community. To analyse the effect of CSR practise on COM-R, Partial Least Squares -Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) is used. Results show that CSR has a positive effect on and a significant relationship with COM-R. Results also indicate that CSR’s contribution to COM-R enhances community collective efficacy, community action, and adaptation. Thus, the verified CSR and COM-R model benefits other researchers, companies, and governments to be further explored.

Pengaruh Tindakan Investasi Infrastruktur dan Pelayanan Terhadap Masyarakat Serta Kepemilikan Institusional Terhadap Profitabilitas

“…Studi yang dilakukan Hermawan tahun 2014 terhadap 543 perusahaan yang terdaftar di Indonesia dari tahun 2007 hingga 2009 dinyatakan bahwa terdapat korelasi antara pengungkapan kegiatan sosial yang dilakukan oleh perusahaan tersebut terhadap tingkat profitabilitasnya (Hermawan & Mulyawan, 2014). Sementara hasil riset pada perusahaan nikel di Sulawesi Tenggara juga mengungkapkan hal senada (Rela et al, 2020). Pada dasarnya kegiatan investasi infrastruktur dan pelayanan yang disediakan terutama bagi kepentingan publik melalui perdagangan, jasa dan pelayanan akan membebani profitabilitas perusahaan, namun harus dianggap sebagai keberhasilan dalam menghasilkan nilai tambah ekonomi dan menjadi strategi daya saing bisnis itu sendiri (Rahmah, 2016).…”
