Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to explore corporate social responsibility practices (CSR) and employees’ perception of different CRS’s elements, especially gender equality and environmental issues. The focus of analysis is whether men and women perceive differently the existence of discrimination in employment and promotion opportunities within the company? Also, the difference in perception of company’s environmental corporate social responsibility in relation to the type of position and level an employee holds is analyzed. Empirical analysis is conducted on a sample of 40 employees of Croatian automotive components manufacturer. Questionnaire with close-ended questions is used. The results show that there is no relationship between respondent’s gender and perception of the existence of discrimination in employment and promotion opportunities. At the same time, all female respondents have stated that it is easier for a men in Croatia to get a management position, while such statement is supported by 45% of male respondents. Regarding environmental CSR, the results show that there is statistically significant relationship between attitude towards company’s engagement in environmental CSR and respondent’s hierarchical level. Managers tend to perceive company’s involvement in CSR activities to be high, while employees on non-managerial positions perceive it to be low or moderate. Possible explanations for these results and managerial implications are presented.
