La Responsabilidad Social Universitaria (RSU) es una nueva política de gestión universitaria que redefine la tradicional extensión y proyección social solidaria, introduciendo un enfoque global de cuidado de los impactos administrativos y académicos en todos los procesos de la universidad. Exige ser asumida por todos los miembros de la universidad transversalmente en sus actividades, siendo imprescindible que ellos entiendan de qué se trata y estén dispuestos a la corresponsabilidad en sus funciones laborales rutinarias. Este estudio busca responder a la pregunta: ¿Cuánto han avanzado los universitarios latinoamericanos en la comprensión de este nuevo paradigma? La investigación es de corte cuantitativo, exploratorio y muestreo por conveniencia a través de una encuesta aplicada a 740 actores universitarios (alumnos, profesores, administrativos y directivos) de 17 universidades en siete países latinoamericanos, donde se analiza cómo los actores universitarios conciben la RSU, seleccionando una de cinco definiciones propuestas. Los resultados marcan varias tendencias: primero, el enfoque estrictamente asistencial ha disminuido de la mente de los universitarios; segundo, las preferencias apuntan a la perspectiva de participación en el desarrollo local, regional y nacional junto con otros actores del entorno y al enfoque de la guía ISO 26000, que define la responsabilidad social como gestión de los impactos organizacionales. Se concluye que este concepto de gestión de impactos ha empezado a penetrar en la mente de la comunidad universitaria, y que se está superando la visión reductora del compromiso social universitario asumido solamente desde la extensión voluntaria, fuera de la formación curricular y la investigación. Se Propone construir una definición latinoamericana de RSU basada en la participación en el desarrollo territorial y la gestión de impactos administrativos y académicos.

Purpose There are different ways of implementing a corporate social responsibility (CSR) system. One interesting way of implementing a CSR system is based on standards such as SA8000 and ISO 26000. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the differences brought by the two standards in European manufacturing in CSR implementation using a survey. Design/methodology/approach Eight hypotheses were derived from an analysis of the implementation pattern for a CSR management system revealed from a review of the literature as well as from the actual two investigated standards. A questionnaire based on these hypotheses was administered to the CSR managers of 326 European manufacturing companies. A χ2 and Cramer’s V-tests were used to validate the results. The CSR managers also added comments to their responses. The qualitative results gathered from the respondents’ comments helped the authors’ to better understand the quantitative data. Findings The results showed differences in how the standards affect strategies, economic and financial issues, stakeholders involved, environmental management, customer and market issues, supply chain management and CSR key performance indicators. The results indicated that it is not clear how production and technical departments can be involved in and committed to such standards or, in general, to a CSR system. Research limitations/implications The research is based on a sample of European manufacturing managers and limited to the implementation of two specific CSR standards. Practical implications The differences between the standards should be interesting to practitioners who are thinking of implementing a CSR system in a manufacturing context and weighing the pros and cons of each standard. Originality/value This research analyses, for the first time, the differences in CSR implementation brought by SA8000 and ISO 26000 in manufacturing and, in particular, in production and technical departments.

Objetivo: determinar el nivel de incorporación de la norma ISO 26000 en las organizaciones empresariales, según las leyes colombianas.Metodología: se realizó un análisis documental a cerca de 8.000 leyes colombianas relacionadas con cuatro categorías: Organizacional, Social, Ambiental y Operacional, las cuales se derivaron de los siete temas y 38 subtemas que componen la Norma Guía ISO 26000 de Responsabilidad Social. El alcance descriptivo de la realidad legislativa colombiana, focalizada en las cuatro categorías de análisis mencionadas, fue posible tras el diligenciamiento de una matriz en la cual se condensan los hallazgos de esta investigación.Resultados: se estableció un nivel del 58% de incorporación de las organizaciones empresariales privadas. El estudio también evidenció un componente diferenciador de las organizaciones empresariales de capital público, las llamadas Empresas Industriales y Comerciales del Estado -EICE´s-, ya que en ellas se halló un nivel de incorporación del 83%.Conclusiones: la diferencia entre los dos tipos de organizaciones (empresariales privadas y empresariales de capital público) radica en que en las EICE´s es obligatoria la rendición pública de cuentas y todos los demás elementos de la categoría Organizacional, lo que no pasa en las privadas. También se concluye que en ambos tipos de empresas los aspectos ambientales, de derechos laborales y derechos de los consumidores están incorporados en su totalidad.

Corporate social responsibility is in the focus of many companies in recent years. It becomes a way of sustainability for many companies on the market. It expresses a voluntary commitment of companies to behave responsibly to their surroundings within three pillars: economic, social and environmental one. The issue of social responsibility is developing in many European countries and European Commission is aiming at support for national CSR strategies. There are countries with highly developed CSR, on the other hand there are countries, such as the Czech Republic, where a public policy is being reformed, including discussions about CSR. This paper supports the idea that states should encourage social responsibility, as it allows businesses to become sustainable which leads to the stability of the economy. CSR activities can be focused on philanthropy, the care of the employees, the environment and transparency of economic activities. The process of CSR certification is important in the development of CSR in the Czech Republic. It allows companies to demonstrate their activities and visible achievements in this field. This paper describes the most popular types of certifications that are used in the Czech Republic and standards that do not have certification purposes, but they are very important. These are standards SA 8000, ISO 26000, ISO 9001, ISO 9004, ISO 9000, ISO 14001, ISO 14004, OHSAS 18001, IQNet SR 10 and the National Quality Policy.

Methodologically and with the support of the multivariable statistical method, teacher-student learning styles are validated in terms of emotional intelligence, developing critical thinking that potentializes autonomous and collaborative learning, with the aim of transcending knowledge under the framework of integration of sustainability and ethics in professional practice. Finally, the measurement indicators are obtained through empirical evidence with several structured questionnaires that measure the factors of the learning styles, based on the emotional intelligence, which are reflected in the self-knowledge and behavior of the students, under a framework of ethical- sustainable reference.
