Description

CSR in Human Resources: Framing, Engaging and Tracking Actions

Two days to turn a stated commitment into concrete and verifiable human resources actions

  • 2 days — 14 h
  • In-person or virtual
  • Intermediate
  • Up to 6 participants

Senior management has announced a corporate social responsibility commitment and the human resources function inherits the social dimension without a method or dedicated resources. Actions already exist but they are scattered, never mapped and invisible. At the same time, clients, candidates and employees are asking increasingly precise questions.

These 14 hours organise the move from intention to evidence. Participants define the social scope of their approach, map existing practices, involve stakeholders, prioritise achievable actions and set the indicators that will allow them to report without over-promising.

Learning objectives

  • Define the social scope of a corporate social responsibility approach
  • Map existing human resources practices against the priorities selected
  • Involve internal stakeholders in building the approach
  • Prioritise actions in line with priorities and available resources
  • Define tracking indicators for each action launched
  • Report on the approach to management and employees

What makes this programme different

A review of human resources practices carried out on the participant's own organisation
A twelve-month roadmap complete with its indicators
A clear distinction between stated commitment and verifiable practice

What the HR function actually owns

  • The social dimension of a corporate social responsibility approach
  • Expectations of employees, candidates and clients

  • Gathering internal expectations and points of friction
  • Gaps between the message and observed practice
  • Mapping stakeholders and their influence

3Building the Action Plan

Commitments that can be kept

  • Framing precise actions with dates and owners
  • Balancing stated ambition against available resources
  • Alignment with the skills development plan

4Indicators, Tracking and Reporting

Proving rather than asserting

  • Selecting indicators that are measurable and genuinely available
