Abstract

Purpose: The study analyzes social and environmental responsibility and the implementation of corporate social responsibility in relation to social, environmental and market sustainability by referring to Law No. 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies in relation with the management of natural resources. Approach/Methodology/Design: The approach method used in this study is an empirical juridical approach, meaning that research is carried out by examining the juridical regulations and connecting with the implementation of regional water company's social and environmental responsibilities in the community. Findings: The results showed that regional water supply companies of Kudus Regency carry out social and environmental responsibility activities which are still very limited, only carried out in the form of charity assistance. Social and environmental responsibility for consumers is still very limited, which is limited to obligations related to water quality. Practical Implications: This study is useful for policy makers, corporate management, practitioners, scholars, and environmental activists. Originality/value: The originality of this study lies in the comprehensive study of the implementation of public company regulations in the context of the social and environmental obligations of regional water companies.
