the corporation

Lots of companies only care about profit and they totally forgot about social responsibilities and ethics. For a business I think social responsibilities and ethics should be more important than profit, but that’s not what most business owner thinks. After watching the video “The Corporation” I realize how poorly the companies treat their employees.  Their working condition is dark and they only get paid really little. They usually hires poor kids and pay them really less. This is really unfair for the workers to work in poor working condition and get really low pay. One example the video gave was the Nike company, what they did was totally not social responsibility and ethics.

business sustainability

I think that most companies care about profit too much that they forgot about the environment. The company will have a good image if they help out the environment. If the company have a better image, customer will most likely go there and they can still makes lots of profit. Companies can make profit but also maintain sustainability. The body shop is a really good example. The body shop worked with NGOs and plantation to protect tropical rainforests.  They are also introducing bottles made 100% post consumer recycled plastics. The body shop is also against animal testing. They do not test their cosmetic products on animals.
