Abstract:By analysing the content of corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports from Fortune 100 companies, this study discovered that most firms participate in disaster-related actions for instrumental and ethical reasons. Short-term relief and recovery acts were reactive and episodic-based, and contained financial and in-kind activities to employee and customer stakeholder groups. In the case of predictable or more "stable" threats, proactive long-term initiatives included a wider stakeholder group, where activities ranged from financial to collaborative partnerships with NGOs and governments.
