Corporate Social Responsibility is thus just about two aspects:

•	The steps taken by a company to neutralize, minimize or offset the harmful effects caused by its processes and product-usage.
•	The further steps a company takes using its resources, core competence, skills, location and funds for the benefit of people and the environment.

Corporate Social Responsibility thus helps to define the contribution of a company beyond economic value and creating employment, and weighs this contribution against the damage done by the company through its products and processes.
