Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) refers to a company's commitment to operate ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life for its workforce, their families, and the local community and society at large.

• Option D: Avoiding any sustainability efforts directly contradicts the principles of CSR.
