Integrating Risk Management Into Corporate Social Responsibility: Towards Synergy Between ISO 31000 And ISO 26000 For An Effective CSR Approach

Abstract

This article defines a research model that examines the fundamental importance of integrating risk management (RM) into corporate social responsibility (CSR). By merging the guiding principles of the ISO 26000 and ISO 31000 standards, it proposes a methodical framework for anticipating and mitigating risk, while strengthening the sustainability and resilience of organizations. Through a rigorous analysis of RM processes and principles, as well as concrete case studies found in the literature, this scientific production demonstrates how a proactive approach to RM can not only preserve, but also enhance the value of companies. The recommendations offer clear guidance to organizations wishing to align their RM practices with their CSR objectives. This work highlights the importance of integrated RM, which is essential for meeting the growing expectations of stakeholders and promoting sustainable and responsible development (SD).
