The Economic Community: Corporate Responsibility
2016 Book of Discipline, Social Principles ¶163.I
I) Corporate Responsibility
Corporations are responsible not only to their stockholders, but also to other stakeholders: their workers, suppliers, vendors, customers, the communities in which they do business, and for the earth, which supports them. We support the public’s right to know what impact corporations have in these various arenas, so that people can make informed choices about which corporations to support.
We applaud corporations that voluntarily comply with standards that promote human well-being and protect the environment.
