Business and society at large to the extent relied on themselves; in as much as one cannot be on its own. The adoption of social responsibility practices therefore is expected to bring about complete relationship between individuals organization and the various sectors to which the business owe obligation. This obligation is seen to extend beyond the statutory obligation to comply with legislation and sees organizations voluntarily taking further steps to improve the quality of life for employees and their families as well as for the community and society at large.
