    Corporate citizenship

    Explanation:

    Corporate citizenship is the social responsibility of companies and businesses while evaluating the rate at which the stakeholders establish economic, ethical and legal responsibilities.

    The focus of investors on the corporate citizenship of companies and businesses is on the increase, as a result, the investors are drawn to companies with social responsibilities to the environment, people and the government.

    Corporate citizenship is broken down into five stages:

    Elementary stage: involves basic social responsibilities such as complying with environmental, safety and health laws. Engagement stage: at this stage, policies are developed to involve managers and employees in social activities that surpass the elementary stage. Innovative stage: policies in the engagement stage become more comprehensive. More thoughts from shareholders will result in a more comprehensive policy. Integrated stage: here, policies are embedded smoothly into the company's operations. At this stage, there is effective monitoring of community activities which are part of the operations of the company. Transforming stage: At this final stage, companies understand the role of corporate citizenship in sales growth and penetration into new markets. Social and economic responsibilities have now been integrated into the day-to-day operations of the company.

    In this scenario, Happy Times (HT) has completed the stages of corporate citizenship and has smoothly embedded its corporate policies into its operations.
