Abstract

In modern business world, corporate social responsibility has been emphasized by stake holders as a driving tool for success to be accomplished. This study assessed the performance and effects of corporate social responsibilities on returns of saw wood marketing among saw millers in Iseyin town of Oyo State. A well-structured questionnaire was used to collect data for this study from 115 saw millers. Analytical tools for this study were gross margin analysis, correlation and linear regression analyses. The findings revealed that age, sex and years of experience were the main factors that affect saw millers in discharging corporate social responsibility. Also there is a significant difference between the corporate social responsibility and returns to sawn wood marketing (p<0.05) and discharging of economic responsibility to residents in the study area will decreased the revenue generated by the saw millers. Therefore, saw millers needed to be enlightened and encouraged that the success of the business needs to be measure by more than just profitability. Governments need to encourage them in order to reduce the cost of production to make the products available to the populace at affordable prices, provision of regular supply of electricity, availability of spare parts to replace the worn-out parts.
