Abstract


The purpose of this draft paper is to empirically examine the role of concern for economic results for shaping corporate social responsibility in Lithuania and Slovenia. Results are based on 80 answers of students from Lithuania and 101 answers of students from Slovenia. Results reveal that Slovenian students on average show significantly higher concern for corporate social responsibility, as well as for economic results, than their Lithuanian counterparts. Similarly in both countries, students perceive organizations concern to pay the full financial cost of using energy and natural resources as most significant factor shaping corporate social responsibility. Findings are important for practitioners and for academia, which get insight into the perception of corporate social responsibility of their future employees.
