INTRODUCTION Rationale Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a concept that has been mentioned a lot in governance research and practice in developed countries in the past decades This term is known in Vietnamese businesses in the last 10 years through international organizations, multinational companies, some joint-venture companies, directly or indirectly investing in Vietnam In recent years, due to the requirements of foreign partners, along with the awareness of society, the need for international integration and sustainable development, CSR has been increasingly concerned CSR is no longer a new concept for Vietnamese firms However, activities on CSR in most companies are merely interpreted as charitable contributions, community sharing, environment or voluntary social work of enterprises CSR has not received adequate attention in the strategy and operation of many firms World Business Council (1998) define CSR "continuing commitment by business to contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the community and society at large” Today CSR is not only a charity or a respect for environmental protection but also involves many aspects, which are specifically concretized in ISO26000 including: Organizational governance, human rights concern, labor practices, environmental protection, fair operation practices, consumer issues, community involvement and development (ISO26000, 2010) Thus CSR not only expresses the external responsibility of the firms but also the elements that express the internal activities and internal responsibilities of the firms As a firm in the field of telecommunications, information technology, R&D and manufacturing telecom equipment, VNPT Technology Joint Stock Company, from inception, has determined the core value of the company as human resource Therefore, human resource management are particularly concerned by the leaders, TIEU LUAN MOI download :
