JAI RATAN, DR. KARUN MEHTA

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives on employee engagement and retention. CSR has evolved as a critical component in the organizational strategy, impacting not only external stakeholders but also internal stakeholders—particularly employees. The paper uses a quantitative approach involving a structured questionnaire administered to 120 employees from the manufacturing sector. Statistical tools, including hypothesis testing, were used to analyze the data. The findings reveal that CSR initiatives have a significant and positive effect on employee engagement and retention, suggesting organizations can enhance employee satisfaction and reduce turnover by investing in CSR practices.
