Benefits and Risks of Satisficing Levels for Input and Output Quantities in Efficiency Analyses from a Corporate Social Responsibility Perspective

“…This way, it is possible that satisficing levels serve as an instrument for providing scopes for the purposes of cultivating emergent strategies in sustainably managing companies (Peters and Zelewski, 2011). From the ecological as well as economic perspective, these slacks possibly present risks since they are connected to a consumption of resources -like for example energy and personnel costs (Peters and Zelewski, 2011) without them being confronted with increased output quantities. If employees use these slacks for the further development of own ideas -for example for new products or for more resource-efficient production methods -innovations can result that prove to be positive in the long run from the ecological, social or economic perspective (Peters and Zelewski, 2011).…”

Furthermore, in case of a production of output quantities maximally up to a satisficing level, increasing returns to scale ("economies of scale") will be possibly not realized that would be achieved in case of higher output quantities above the satisficing level.…”

“…Moreover, from the social perspective these slacks can be classified as opportunities since the employees can use them, for example, for further qualification or for working on their own ideas.
