Chinese enterprises' social responsibility has been a long time in politics and the public is most concerned about one of the topics. Social responsibility, that is, based on the market as the main body of the stimulative function of the society and the potential risk should bear the obligation to pay.
Social responsibility in constant development and evolution history, from the country gradually extended to include as the theme of all market subjects and the general public responsibility undertake way,. There is no doubt that social progress of the rule of law and economic and social development has played a positive role in promoting this.
On the one hand, the development of social economy makes part of the market main body constantly engaged in capital operation, production and profit; To the enterprise as the market main body of market, on the other hand, activities, material production need from the society of the limited resources of the supply. The efficiency of market resource allocation optimization model makes the enterprise can often with the lowest operational cost limit to control the output of the capital. Development of the economy constantly promote the maximization of resource allocation efficiency, by reducing the cost of raw materials and necessary fundamental output (operating costs), to improve the enterprise's own profit space.
Creation is from different aspects of the rule of law makes the enterprise as the main body to conduct marketing activities involved in and guide. This is usually embodied in effective operation of the economic policy to regulate the market activity and standardize the market activities of laws and regulations and principles of market operation, these procedures and has a guiding principle for the enterprise autonomy space of the large scope. Lawmakers will usually consider the various interests, including role to the development of social economy and the social risk of scope. Social risk can also be understood as costs for economic and social development of a responsibility.
Countries as the principal part of market economic activity generally has a dominant position. Is the dominant on national defense security work and the control of national economy. This control performance in market activity for the country for its holding companies or wholly state-owned companies directly involved in the marketing activities, guide and control the direction of economic development. Strong control has support for national economic and political power enterprises gradually at the same level of absolute advantageous position in the market activity. In the construction of national security defense force, national finance control agencies is especially prominent.
Law is not blindly give way, of course, also created some restrictive and enterprise development direction of purpose. Market subjects to participate in economic activities must abide by the relevant laws and regulations of the country, shall not violate the constitution and the law. In order to standardize the normal operation of the market activities, national related economic policy in accordance with the law, with a \"visible hand\" to adjust and guide the market main body to participate in the activities of the market. Among all kinds of special law, corporate social responsibility also have the provisions of the relevant laws and regulations. Environmental and resources protection law, the environment for public interest (environmental pollution and ecological destruction), including the responsibility of bear way also.
The existing problems is how enterprises in market activity limited yet fair social responsibility, and social responsibility cognizance and assess in running.
China's enterprises to cope with environmental cause damage to the low cost of illegal or some unreasonable resource allocation in the market make the bear social responsibility will be more obvious asymmetry, namely social rights and obligations of unequal, unequal market main body and function of fairness.
Enterprises in the process of market activities, as an important part of market main body, individual businesses and state with this is different from the general public law characteristics. Business usually with its scale or the circulation of capital and more easily a good position in the market, especially the state-owned or national business is superior to other main body status in the market activity. Predictably high its right position. At the same time, with the political influence affect as a backstop companies tend to be surprising benefits, because it represents the most advanced tools of labor and production mode; But for the cost of spending and waste of resources such as the use of unreasonable form that is amazing. General with public ownership of the main body of market main body behind the national capital operation do support is huge. Under the same production efficiency, with the level of the enterprise because of its privacy, profitability will be stronger. Cost reduction is the first selection of other enterprises is the first selection of state-owned enterprises. But the allocation of resources once the \"visible hand\" in regulation, the original market order will produce different extent of fluctuations, do not deny that the national policy for promoting effect of the positive economic growth, is also using the national public power, with the national public power of the nature of the enterprise for bearing construction and market development, resource allocation has priority. Once this is priority to rise to the national level, it has a certain political nature, with the disadvantages of the planned economy era. Is such as to a piece of wood, the original ecological value is very high, suitable for used as a primitive forest protected. But countries brought in a file, the ownership of trees to the enterprise, proposed development national park. After planning implementation, general the economic value of the park are reflected in the surrounding land price first, and its ecological value dropped to second level position. Thus, by ecological value of non-state-owned corporation is faced with the lack of ecological resources, it also suggests that the allocation of resources among enterprises may face for small enterprise complement the loss of responsibility. Other private companies may also, of course, with the aid of legal rights, lack of law also provides some damage relief way of compensation. But the result is more than the public power is involved, after operation and run entirely by the market mechanism can expect or another kind of effect can be achieved.
This is public power in the allocation of resources involved in the operation of the lack of a responsible way. The author thinks that should be corrected from the source. The operation of public power is bound to fluctuations in the market allocation of resources, but should be on the environment and other market main body, the minimum principle, at the same time its a high compensation shall be granted, or at least full compensation and other damage compensation to the relief of public power may cause social risk or loss.
May be called before the market main body status and fair principle of asymmetric or market main body status inequality, and in the allocation of resources is another responsibility is to cause damage to the environment responsibility, the concentrated expression of asymmetric enterprise economic right and the obligation of environmental protection. Specifically illegal costs and environmental pollution of the environment is the enterprise profit amount of asymmetry. Zeal, legal provisions shall be under the premise of guarantee reasonable profit space, give the necessary supervision to the enterprise, including illegal traveler and environmental control or elimination of pollution of the environment impact cost should be within the illegal cost calculation, and in most cases, some administrative punishment rules only in violation of the provisions of laws of illegal cost rather than the content together. Companies will have one more interest gap, this was reflected in the legislative level, but also related to political factors.
Legislation on illegal costs should be moderate increase, both for the environment and realize the best ecological benefit and economic benefit of the way, the administrative penalty amount should be appropriately increased, but according to the current situation of the development in our country at present, the principle of the priority of economic development, pay attention to protecting the environment to the sustainable development, promote green GDP, have to say it's an idea innovation. At the same time should also be aware that the contradiction between economic development and environmental damage does exist for a long time, the enhancement enterprise's environmental protection consciousness, developing green industry is a good way of governance. In the process of the economic transformation, increasing the energy industry barriers to entry, a more strict market access rules and standards, at the same time can consider environmental damage insurance gradually promotion, forced some companies to join insurance system. Should from the legislation level will be the provisions of the state to do that, make up for the Chinese enterprises lack the lack of social responsibility risk bearing mechanism. Only in this way, can the enterprise social responsibility to implement, and make the protection of the environment also deserves.
