Risk Management Audit
Based on what you have learned about CSR and diversity, equity, and inclusion, use this risk management audit checklist to audit an organization you have access to. You may need to consult with HR in your organization for some of the responses. Provide an example or evidence for each row for which your answer is "yes" and a recommendation for your organization when your answer is "no." Make sure to support your responses by citing credible sources.
Questions 11-13 in the audit focus on CSR. Choose which of these you find most important for your organization and explain why this issue is relevant and how it contributes to organizational effectiveness. Identify legal implications as well as risks if this issue is not addressed. Write 2–3 paragraphs on this, supporting your explanation with the citations.
Sample Solution
The question I chose to answer is “Does the organization have a formal CSR policy?”. This issue is relevant to my organization because Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goes beyond just making sure that the company meets its legal and ethical responsibilities, it also plays an important role in building public trust and fostering long-term relationships (Kushwaha et al., 2018). Therefore having a formal CSR policy can be beneficial as it will provide guidance on how the company should act regarding issues such as environmental sustainability, diversity & inclusion, human rights and community engagement (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2019).
Having such policies in place can also help protect organizations from potential risks associated with not having one. For example without clear guidelines for behavior employees may make decisions that are not compliant with local laws which could lead to financial penalties or worse (Ahmed et al., 2015). Furthermore having no policies in place can create mistrust between consumers, investors and other stakeholders which could potentially damage an organization’s reputation if not addressed properly.
In conclusion, providing employees with clear expectations on how they should conduct themselves when representing the company through a formal CSR policy is important for ensuring compliance with legal requirements while helping to foster positive relationships between all parties involved. By taking these steps organizations can protect their interests while demonstrating corporate responsibility.
Firstly, Vittola argues after a war, it is the responsibility of the leader to judge what to do with the enemy (Begby et al (2006b), Page 332).. Again, proportionality is emphasised. For example, the Versailles treaty imposed after the First World War is questionably too harsh, as it was not all Germany’s fault for the war. This is supported by Frowe, who expresses two views in jus post bellum: Minimalism and Maximalism, which are very differing views. Minimalists suggest a more lenient approach while maximalist, supporting the above example, provides a harsher approach, punishing the enemy both economically and politically (Frowe (2010), Page 208). At the last instance, however, the aim of war is to establish peace security, so whatever needs to be done can be morally justified, if it follows the rules of jus ad bellum.
In conclusion, just war theory is very contestable and can argue in different ways. However, the establishment of a just peace is crucial, making all war type situation to have different ways of approaching (Frowe (2010), Page 227). Nevertheless, the just war theory comprises of jus ad bellum, jus in bello and jus post bellum, and it can be either morally controversial or justifiable depending on the proportionality of the circumstance. Therefore, there cannot be one definitive theory of the just war but only a theoretical guide to show how wars should be fought, showing normativity in its account, which answers the question to what a just war theory is.
