Responsibility is a feminine noun with origin in Latin and that demonstrates the quality of what it is responsible, or obligation of answer per proper acts or aliens, or by a trusted thing.
The word responsibility is related to the Latin word answer, which means "respond, promise in return". In this way, a person who is held responsible for a situation or something will have to respond if something goes disastrous.
In our society, responsibility is a highly appreciated and sought after characteristic, especially in the labor market, where a responsible worker is duly rewarded for his responsibility. Employees of companies who demonstrate responsibility are often chosen to hold leadership positions (such as store managers, etc.).
Social responsability
THE social responsability is an increasingly important feature in the business world. Consumers are increasingly aware of the influence companies have on society and increasingly prefer companies that demonstrate a social conscience.
Corporate social responsibility is closely linked to ethical and transparent management that organization must have with its stakeholders, to minimize its negative impacts on the environment and on the community.
Civil responsability
Civil liability consists of the obligation (obligatory bond) that hangs over the person who causes harm to others, by putting them in the situation they would be in if the harmful fact had not occurred.
A distinction is made between contractual civil liability (resulting from non-compliance with obligations arising from contracts, unilateral business or law) and extra-contractual civil liability (derived from the violation of absolute rights or the practice of certain acts that, although lawful, cause damage to others).
