CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND FINANCIAL CONTROL

Purpose: The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between CSR and financial control; to achieve this, references were taken from different authors reviewing the state of the art with the purpose of an exhaustive understanding of the subject. Methodology: The research was based on a quantitative approach, non-experimental, cross-sectional design and a sample of 60 private educational institutions. Data were collected through two instruments that counted with reliability and validity: the CSR instrument obtained a reliability of 0.824 and the financial control, a 0.821. Conclusions: As a result, it was found that 96.7% of the promoters showed high social responsibility and financial control of the institutions in their charge. Likewise, a Spearman's Rho of 0.769 was obtained with a p= 0.000. It is concluded that there is a direct, significant and positive relationship between CSR and financial control; therefore, it was determined that educational institutions, under the supervision of the Local Educational Management Unit, improve their financial control. Implications of the Research: The world is focused on how companies practice corporate social responsibility (CSR) due to the fact that economic activities, which each company exercises, affect society and the environment.
