The Pyramid of CSR

The Pyramid of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) illustrates how companies can structure their responsibilities. At the base are **economic responsibilities**, meaning the company must be profitable and financially sustainable. Next is **legal responsibilities**, adhering to laws and regulations. Above that are **ethical responsibilities**, doing what’s right beyond just the law, like fair treatment and honesty. At the top are **philanthropic responsibilities**, contributing to community well-being through actions like charity or environmental initiatives. The idea is that a responsible company balances profit with legal, ethical, and philanthropic efforts, building trust and a positive reputation over time.
