Abstract

Previous research suggested that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is positively related to organization's attractiveness to potential employees. This paper tries to explore the effective dimensions of CSR on employee engagement and the mediating factors that lay between the two constructs. The author proposes that CSR has a direct impact on employee engagement, and that perceived organizational support (POS) and Chinese values mediate this relationship, so CSR may also contribute indirectly to employee engagement. Results support the hypotheses, as the relationship between CSR and employee engagement is fully mediated by POS and Chinese values. Implications to theory and practice, with limitations and future research are presented.
