摘要
企業社會責任(Corporate Social Responsibility)的議題逐漸受到西方先進國家企業的重視,亦成為企業經營治理的新趨勢。企業社會責任不僅是社會大眾對企業的期望,也逐漸與貿易連結而成為產品能否進入國際市場貿易壁壘的關卡。因此,企業社會責任是企業提供產品外貿競爭力的必要武器。我國醫療產業企業社會責任的研究闕如,作者遂感興趣探討企業社會責任的投入對醫療機構財務績效的影響,並且與金融產業財務績效的影響作比較。本研究以財團法人醫院和金融產業為研究對象,結果發現:第一,財團法人醫院企業社會責任投入與績效間存在有時間延遲的效果;金融產業則無,這很可能是因為產業特性的不同。第二,財團法人醫院內部企業社會責任投入有助於提升員工生產力;金融產業內部社會責任的投入對員工營收無解釋力,第三,財團法人醫院和金融產業外部企業社會責任投入有助於提升財務績效。本研究檢視台灣醫療機構和金融產業企業社會責任的概況、企業社會責任與財務績效,並探討研究結果的可能意涵,提供機構經營者將企業社會責任從概念轉成經營策略的參考。 Abstract
