Abstract

Private enterprises have played a more and more important role in Chinese economy. However, following their increasingly outstanding achievements for China’s GDP, a sharp problem of lack of corporate social responsibilities (CSR) of private enterprises comes out and impedes sustainable development for both Chinese private enterprises and the economy at large. The paper aims to present the current status of CSR implementation by Chinese private enterprises and figure out why the Chinese private enterprises need to implement CSR during their business operation and management; what kind of methods and policies they can apply in order to fulfill their CSR strategy and goals; how they can improve their CSR performance through sustainable CSR management. For this purpose the paper analyzes the case of Wenzhou CSR Public Private Partnership Project which was launched by Sino-German CSR Project in 2008 and evaluates the CSR implementation of ten Wenzhou pilot companies. Based on their experiences and lessons, some findings and conclusions to improve CSR implementation are addressed.
