All you need to know about corporate social responsibility

What is corporate social responsibility?

Corporate social responsibility, or CSR, is an active commitment to ethical business practices. When companies commit to CSR, they pledge to operate for the benefit of employees, the environment and broader society. Companies that practice CSR take transparency and worker conditions seriously, and they consistently strive to reduce their CO₂ emissions.

Why is corporate social responsibility important for fleets?

The transport sector is one of the highest emitters of CO₂s. It's common knowledge that the world needs to rapidly move towards decarbonisation. CSR helps fleets map out and achieve specific goals around reducing CO₂s. CSR practices are building blocks to future-proofing your fleet. In addition to supporting your fleet's preparation for net-zero legislation, CSR can show customers, employees, potential hires and the public that environmental responsibility and worker well-being matter to your business.

What does a CSR manager do?

A CSR manager for fleets is concerned with a key question: How can our business limit its environmental footprint? One of a CSR manager's main goals is saving fuel, since the less a fleet consumes fuel the less it emits carbon. CSR managers also look for ways to improve fleet safety, which benefits all drivers and therefore contributes to society as a whole. Essentially, a CSR manager helps fleets operate more efficiently and sustainably.

What skills do you need to work in CSR?

CSR managers tend to be passionate about making a positive difference. Skills-wise, CSR managers are highly strategic. They constantly reflect on data, identifying areas of improvement and then developing ways for the business to effectively address those areas. Strong interpersonal skills come into play too—a CSR manager is responsible for communicating company CSR goals and initiatives.

What tools do you need to manage corporate social responsibility for fleets?

Digital tools are indispensable to CSR managers for fleets. A comprehensive fleet management system simplifies a CSR manager's work. With Webfleet, for example, CSR managers can both monitor and pull reports on fuel consumption, CO₂ emissions and driver safety. Whether their fleets include internal combustion engine vehicles, electric vehicles or some combination thereof, CSR managers need tools that provide visibility and insights on their progress towards net-zero mobility.
