| dc.description.abstract | The purposes of this research were to investigate the perception on activity maneuver and supporting factors regarding employees' participation in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The sample consisted of 250 employees of Prachin Buri Industrial Estate 304, Prachin Buri Province. The research results are as follows.
The employees’ perception on activity maneuver information in CSR in the overall was at the highest level (= 4.62, S.D. = 0.44). The overall perception on the information had a statistically significant positive relationship with employees’ participation at the .01 level (r = .347). When considering each aspect, the perception on activity information positively correlated with participation in CSR activities at the .01 level of significance (r = .295). The results of the appropriate model analysis used to forecast the employees’ perception on CSR activity indicated that the perception of policy information had a p-value of .012, meaning that the policy factor could predict the employees’ information perception at 0.05 statistical significance with a tolerance of .704, the VIF was 1.420. As for the planning aspect, the tolerance value was .617 with the VIF value of 1.621, and the activity guideline aspect had its tolerance value of .532 with the VIF value of 1.881. This means that the perception regarding policy, planning, and guideline aspects was not beyond the Multicollinearity variables because their tolerance values were not lower than .2 and VIF did not exceed 10. Also, the results of the regression coefficient analysis of factors affecting the information perception on CSR activities in the form of raw scores (B) were .298, .168, and .209 indicating that the variables predicting the perceived social responsibility included policy (X1), planning (X2), and activity guidelines (X3), and the three variables can together predict the level of awareness of CSR activities. These three factors could jointly predict the information perception on CRS at 11 percent.
Factors promoting the employee participation on social responsibility were generally at a moderate level ( = 2.94, S.D. = 1.22) and there was a statistically significant positive correlation with employee participation at the .01 level (r = .855). When looking at each aspect, it was found that factors promoting the employee participation in training and activities were positively related to the social responsibility aspect statistically significant at .01 (r = .773) and (r = .841). The results of the analysis of the appropriate models used to predict the factors contributing to employee participation showed that employees’ activity and training participation had the positive influence on CSR activities with p-value of .000 and .001, which was less than 0.05 indicating that their attendance could predict promoting factors of the employee participation statistically significant at the .05 level. This means activity and training participation factors could contribute to the promotion of employee participation statistically significant at the .05 level. While the training had a tolerance value of .225, the VIF value of 4.450, the activity participation had a tolerance value of .259, the VIF value of 3.858. As for being a group member, the tolerance ship was .193 with the VIF value of 5.185 showing that participating in training and membership did not go beyond the Multicollinearity due to the tolerance value of not less than 2 and VIF value of not more than 10. The result of the regression coefficient analysis of factors affecting the level of factors contributing to employee participation on CSR operations were .157, .391, and .028 showing that the predicting variables of the employee participation promotion were training (X4), and participation (X5), and group membership (X6). The three variables could predict the level of factors contributing to employees' participation on CRS at 72.70% | en_US |
