In the past decade, corporate firms have globally increasingly adopted corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices; however, so far less is known about how productivity change in the presence of socially responsible and undesirable output can be evaluated. This paper develops a framework that integrates CSR in a dynamic by-production technology which captures the transformation of multiple inputs into marketed outputs, socially responsible and undesirable outputs, while accounting for adjustment costs in quasi-fixed inputs. The paper illustrates the method using a sample of European food and beverage manufacturing firms. The results of the empirical application show that there is a decline in dynamic Luenberger productivity indicators mainly due to technical inefficiency change. Hence, firms should devise strategies to enhance utilization of resources and reduce technical inefficiency. The regression of productivity change indicators on firm-specific factors showed that more indebted firms experienced a lower growth of the productivity of undesirable output, whereas more profitable firms have a lower productivity growth of variable inputs and a higher growth of the productivity of investments.

在存在社会责任和不良产出的情况下衡量生产力变化的动态副生产框架:来自欧洲食品加工商的证据

在过去的十年中,企业公司在全球范围内越来越多地采用企业社会责任 (CSR) 实践;然而,到目前为止,关于如何评估存在社会责任和不良产出的生产率变化知之甚少。本文开发了一个框架,将企业社会责任整合到动态副生产技术中,该技术捕获了多种投入到市场产出、社会责任和不良产出的转变,同时考虑了准固定投入的调整成本。本文使用欧洲食品和饮料制造公司的样本说明了该方法。实证应用的结果表明,动态 Luenberger 生产率指标下降主要是由于技术效率低下的变化。因此,公司应制定战略以提高资源利用率并减少技术效率低下的情况。生产率变化指标对企业特定因素的回归表明,负债较多的企业的不良产出生产率增长较低,而盈利较多的企业可变投入生产率增长较低,投资生产率增长较高。[EconLit 引文:C02、C14、C6、D24]
