Corporate social responsibilities
Can someone please give me their input on the below.
I have extracted a piece of information from 'Leon Restaurant' from their website about their social corporate responsibilities.
The statement says:
'we started the process of removing nitrates in our chorizo (pork sausages). We worked with our supplier to produce a natural choir which fits in with our values of ingredients and taste. It took a lot of time but we got their in the end.
It is lower in salt than its commercial housing. It contains only 6 ingredients: pork, garlic, cayenne, paprika and salt. They are baked rather than fried before putting on customer's dish'.
would this be a ethical responsibility or philanthropic responsibility?
I would have thought it may be philanthropic as they are going out their way to improve quality of food for their customers.
But then again, could it be an ethical responsibility to keep up with their values of using fair trade organic products which is one of their aims, thus removing nitrate from their sausages, they are obliged to do what is right and fair, avoiding any harm to their customers.
Please can someone help me.
Thank you
