Abstract

Ovaj rad bavi se pitanjem percepcije mladih potrošača o društvenoj odgovornosti poduzeća. Društvena odgovornost poduzeća postaje bitna sastavnica u aktivnostima odnosno poslovanju poduzeća. Mogu je, ali i ne moraju provoditi, ovisi o njihovoj misiji, viziji i željenom smjeru. Pretpostavka je da uvođenje takve politike donosi određene benefite. Ulaskom u moderno doba uvode se razni novi standardi i certifikati koji bitno utječu na porast implementacije politike društvene odgovornosti u poslovanje. Poduzeća su okružena mnogobrojnim čimbenicima na koje imaju pozitivan i negativan utjecaj. Mladi potrošači imaju najviše doticaja s učenjem o važnosti i održivosti zajednice tj. najobrazovanija su generacija. Također, predstavaljaju buduće radno aktivne osobe u budućnosti odnosno postaju novo potrošačko tržište. Poduzeća ako žele opstati dugoročno na tržištu i ostvariti konkurentsku prednost moraju proučiti mlade potrošače, njihove vrijednosti i usmjeriti željene prodajne aktivnosti prema njima. Provedeno je empirijsko istraživanje u svrhu dobivanja odgovora od mladih osoba i saznanja njihovog razmišljanja o djelovanju poduzeća prema entitetima koja postoje u stvarnosti. Rezultati pokazuju stvarno stanje odnosa poduzeća prema društvu. Mlade osobe nisu dovoljno informirane o pojmu društvena odgovornost poduzeća. Zainteresirani su za teme vezanu uz okoliš. Nadalje, istraživanje je pokazalo nesigurnost i neodlučan stav u pitanjima odnosa poduzeća prema zaposlenicima i zajednici općenito.
