| dc.description.abstract | Corporate social responsibility has been recognized as a weapon to survive in global competitive environment. But CSR has been little studied in the health sector. The goal of this thesis is to investigate and analyze factors affecting the practices of CSR in St. Paul‟s, MCM and Hamelin fistula hospitals to form a baseline for further research. This study used two sampling stages. The first one is to sample out the hospitals and secondly a number of respondents within the selected hospitals. Purposive sampling method was used to select 3 hospitals and all the management team members of the selected hospitals as a sample. The data for the study had been collected through self-administered standard questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis were used to analyze the data with the aid of SPSS version 20.The results show that organization culture, government policy, and pressure group positively and significantly influence the level of CSR adoption. Employees demand, Competition and customers demand have positive relationship but not significant in explaining the level of CSR. The study recommended that hospitals should see social performance as an enlightened self- interest and should therefore handle it with a great concern. | en_US |
