INTRODUCTION
Meaning – Social
responsibilities of business lays emphasis on the contribution business could
make to such social problems as education provision of basic infrastructural
and social amenities and protection and restoration of the social environment.
Social responsibility in entirely on what the business could do to alleviate
the suffering of the society that social responsibilities appears to be in two
extremes viz they may emerge out of the social impact of the society itself.
The former has to do with what a business can or should do for society.
Furthermore, social problems arose challenge to business
management. It is the duty of business to satisfy a social need and at the same
time serve their institution. In the United States for example the find
foundation/established by ford motors and the Rock Feller Foundations are two
institutions established for help solve societal problem. These foundations
have provided money to aid in medical industrial and agricultural research as
well as providing scholarship for student in colleges pursing programmes that
are bound to help the society.
It is worthy to note that in Nigeria that business has done
something to help the society in gress like in the granting of scholarships for
higher education and programming on television and radio house many people
benefited and many more and to benefit from scholarship awards by many
comprences for studies both at home and the Gulg oil company and shell petrol
petroleum development company. There have been other companies who have
financed or structure for some educational institutions. Examples of such
companies include modoles Enugu. The international bank for West Africa (IBWA)
for example has erected a magnificent building at the University of Ibadan for
the running and development of a banking and finance programme in the
University Today.
Conclusion social responsibility in business layed a every big
contribution in our organization and being practiced in Nigeria.s
1.1
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The impact practice of social responsibility needs to be reinforced as this
brightens the hope of salvaging the already worsened situation. In view of the
fact that Nigeria population’s timingly growing, the business to survive since
government alone cannot shoulder the responsibility social environment the
business organizations shows the society that such organization’s in
existence and promotes the society welfare. To talk more of social
responsibility. It can be defined as person’s obligation to evaluate in the
decision making process. Eg. education, health, provision of basic protection
and restoration of social environment.
The importance of social responsibility cannot be over emphasized, yes we shall
look at the different view points.
While a worker is entitled to the terms of the employment contract, it is in
the interest of both the employer and the employee to preserve the worker as an
asset.
The provisions are not always necessary to attract staff but they go a long way
to increase worker commitment, and welfare. A healthy and committed work force
is beneficial to workers. Employers and society generally even though the
primary beneficiary is the worker.
Business or organizations benefit enormously from the maintenance of law and
order by the government, the protection of domestic industries against powerful
foreign competition, the patronage of a population and the society from which
it draw inputs both human and material.
1.2
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Whereas the reason why social responsibility is assumed by business is
well-know. Nigeria as an emergmy country with only a short industrial history
may just be waking up to phenomenon of social responsibility. The business man
must examine the impact of social responsibility on the public good of the
policy alternatives he is free to elect and implement. In doing so he is
governed by what the ought to from the point of view of society and his own
inner standards of rights and wrong when a business show concern for society,
there are good two reasons that govern his decision.
The first is a concern for legality, fairness and decency and the second is the
threat of regulation that will be forthcoming if business behaviour does not
meet the standards applied to it by society.
The problem of this study is to establish that there is awareness of the
concept of social responsibility owing to the Nigerian business and how it is
practiced if it exists.
1.3
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The objectives of this study is to took into the degree to which social
responsibility of business in Nigeria is practiced at MODOTEL Enugu.
Secondly, the study will determine to what extent business managers assume
social responsibility in which areas and what ends
Thirdly, the analyses the impact of social responsibility practices on the
business that practices it in terms of sales, patronage and profit.
1.4
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The study will contribute to the literature on social responsibility of
business in Nigeria. It is expected that it will also help MODOTEL a leading
hotel chain in Nigeria to recognize its place in society and assume the
necessary obligations better. Additionally it is hoped that this project will
contribute to scholarship and therefore provide a spinning board for further
studies in the same area.
1.5
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
In the study attention will be paid to the hotel as service and
hospitality industry and the typical stakeholders there in so that we can
isolate those publics which MODOTELS will naturally be inclined to the study
will seek to identify the type of relationships the company ash with the
different publics and the social responsibility it assumes with each. We
shall group the publics broadly into two – the internal public and the external
public.
The internal public will be considered while the external public will include
customers, government, other hotels supplier such as NITEL, NEPA, BREWERIES,
Soft drink Bottles, etc.
