It’s true that corporations carry several types of social responsibility. We take more notice of the types of social responsibility associated with corporations simply because they are more visible and we are more likely to scrutinize their behavior.Social responsibility falls on all of our shoulders, whether we work at the corporate level or are acting on our own behalf.
