Abstract
The rise of many semi-conductor companies was significant in the sub-urban areas of the Philippines as part of the government’s economic agenda. Revenue is impressive, in return, there are social and environment impacts as outcomes of their economic activities.
This study addressed the outcomes of Business Social Responsibility (BSR) Programs of five selected semiconductor companies in the Philippines.
Assessments were made by the employees, the researchers and the community. The research instrument was validated by thirty experts. Descriptive, correlational, and triangulation methods of research were employed. Elaboration Method with multiple correlations was used to test the mediation.
Results of the study showed positive outcomes to stakeholders. Some differences were noted on the BSR outcomes reported by the companies against the report of the community. The BSR programs inhibited a pattern as low, moderate and extensive. The patterns of BSR programs account for the relationship between company profile and BSR outcomes.
