Social initiatives:
How to create lasting value through corporate social responsibility
Social initiatives:
CSR has been defined as "open and transparent business practices that are based upon ethical values and respect for employees, communities and the environment - (and) designed to deliver sustainable value to society at large, as well as to shareholders."
- The Prince of Wales Business Leaders Forum
The real challenge is to understand what it means in practice. At i-flex®, we believe that by creating a more inclusive business culture, we are creating a vibrant and innovative working environment where success can be forged. Corporate social responsibility plays a pivotal role in shaping corporate behavior and actions.
Our corporate vision to life is communicated through our tangible commitment to children - beyond the normal business values of price, quality and service. We'd like to raise awareness of our initiatives and activities through this section on our website.
Our CSR policy document focuses on the importance of clarity, and congruence with company purpose and values.
Our corporate social responsibility is aimed at children's issues like education and health. To further our initiative, i-flexers have voluntarily undertaken programs under the banner of 'i-flex for children', with several prestigious welfare organizations. Some of these initiatives are:
[list] a day at SOS children's village
tsunami aid
heart-to-heart charity initiative
employee volunteers
special olympics
road safety
earthquake relief
i-flex pearls
IT initiatives driving education
i-flex for children initiative
