9. Eligibility
The competition is open to companies of all sizes both indigenous and multinational.
We strongly recommend that submissions be only accepted if a company’s
CEO or relevant Board member has signed them off.

Monday, January 18, 2010

1. Verify validity and accuracy of the data provided: Review submission
against the supporting evidence provided, company reports plus other
information available in the public domain and obtain additional
information or clarification from the company if needed. This occurs
either via email or a company visit;
2. Assess the quality of the submissions against the criteria and their
evaluation questions and assign points;
3. Select winning entries;
4. Provide feedback to all participants: Written feedback from the judging
panel should be sent both to awarded companies, as well as to those
that were not awarded. This way, there is opportunity for learning and
development, as the feedback reports can be used to guide the
company’s improvement efforts. (Example: see in Appendix 1, UK,
Awards for Excellence.)
There are no checklists with “right answers” for the submissions to be
measured against, as CSR performance consists of constantly evolving
targets, and are context-dependent. Instead, the expertise of the judging
panels will be relied upon to compare the submissions and rank them, so as
to identify winners in each of the categories and their contestant sub groups.
5. Evaluation scoring system
In order to rank the submissions from participants according to the
evaluation criteria, a simple scoring system, illustrated in diagram 3:
Award Evaluation Scoring System, could be used.
Points will be assigned at the discretion of the Judging Panel, but could be
thought of in the following manner:
1 point assigned per issue addressed, per criterion;
If the issue is addressed over more than one criterion, or, over the
entire criteria range, it can receive up to a maximum of 5 points;
If a submission is not single issue focused, but instead demonstrates a
comprehensive, committed and consistent strategic approach to an
entire category, at its discretion, the Judging Panel can assign up to 10
points per criterion, adding up to a maximum total of 50 points;
In addition, the Judging Panel can award up to 50 points based on its
overall appreciation of the submission, in light of the evidence and
total information provided, and considered relative to local industry
standards.
As already stated earlier, the proposed Award model aims to reward
integrated approaches to CSR development.
Purpose of the Award: The purpose of the Lithuanian Annual CSR Award is to
raise awareness of and encourage good CSR practice among companies in
Lithuania – therefore every step in the Award Process should be designed to
reflect these goals.

Format of the Award: There will be three award categories, each with three
sub-categories rewarding SMEs, large national, and foreign-owned multinational
companies separately.

In this report, four award category options are proposed, to be selected at
the discretion of the Ministry. These are:
Being an Employer of Choice - recognizing companies for the quality of their

workplace conditions and their level of attractiveness to potential employees;
Valuing and Utilization of Diversity - recognizing companies for valuing and
utilizing diversity among employees and customers for business success, and
as a contribution to fostering diversity in society;

Adding Value to Local & Global Community - recognizing the quality of value
brought by companies to both the local and global communities;
Best Overall Social Responsibility Performance - recognizing the company
with not only top scores in the above categories, but also demonstrating
most visible progress in its overall CSR development.

Evaluation criteria: Following the example of leading cases, this award is
designed to reward companies’ overall CSR strategies and performance as
regards the different award categories, and not specific initiatives or projects.
Therefore, the evaluation criteria aim to evaluate the level of integration into
the business, from strategy into operations, aiming for effective and concrete
improvements, aligned to the needs of the business and its stakeholders.
This approach may seem “advanced” for the Lithuanian business
environment, where CSR has only recently been introduced; however, in
accordance with the expectations of the UNDP and the Ministry, this award
model is purposefully designed so that the process of applying for the award
is in itself an important support to the development of the companies’ CSR
understanding, thinking and actions. The intention is that these
developments will accelerate and become increasingly tangible over the next
years, with the yearly repetition of the award.
Thus, the evaluation process will focus on the following criteria:
1. Identification of CSR issues: What key CSR issues has the company
identified relating to the award categories? What issues are not being
addressed and why?
2. Engagement with stakeholders: Have key stakeholders been engaged
with? How?
3. Development of strategic direction, action plan and KPIs: What
strategic directions, action plans and KPIs have been put in place?
4. Implementation & monitoring of progress: Have these action plans
been implemented and has monitoring of progress been done? How
successfully have targets been met?
5. Reporting, gathering & integration of feedback: What reporting &
gathering of feedback has been done? How have these been integrated
into next steps?

When evaluating submissions, determining factors will be the format of the
submission form, that must effectively support the companies in
demonstrating how they have been working strategically with the award
issues; and the quality, breadth and commitment of the judging panel, whom
must have the ability to evaluate the submissions relative to the specific
contexts of the submitting companies, while effectively representing a wide
range of stakeholder constituencies and their interests and needs.

AWARD CATEGORY OPTION 1: Being an Employer of Choice
This category recognizes companies for the quality of their workplace
conditions and level of attractiveness to potential employees. A successful
entry will detail the strategies, supported by specific and measurable

CATEGORY 2: etc...

The 5 criteria areas follow the five steps in the CSR Implementation and
Improvement Process. These are:
1. Identification of CSR issues
2. Engagement with stakeholders
3. Development of strategic direction, action plan and KPIs
4. Implementation & monitoring of progress
5. Reporting & gathering of feedback
For explanation of each step, see Diagram 1: CSR Implementation and
Improvement Process.

One final recommendation regards the name for the award: Please note that
it is important not to use ”CSR” in the title of the award. The reason for this
is that this award is, at present, not intended to cover the full scope of what
is today commonly referred to as “Corporate Social Responsibility”, which
includes Environmental Responsibility. We therefore propose you develop a
name for the award programme that matches its focus areas. Two examples
of possible titles: Corporate Leadership in Social Responsibility, or Corporate
Leadership in Labour and Social Responsibility.
Overview
The United Nations Millennium Summit in year of 2000, which attended by President of Indonesia has reaffirmed the commitment of Indonesia and the international community to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), a set of measurable objectives for development and poverty eradication.
The UN Global Compact also encourages the MDGs goal among business community in perform its Social and Environmental Responsibility, furthermore companies and business organization in Indonesia transformed to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies in its business, and to report its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) implementation and evaluation.
The challenge and barrier in term of CSR that faced the business and industry community in Indonesia is the understanding of CSR is still poor and patchy, moreover the paradigm that CSR is still viewed as cost instead of investment.
Recently Indonesian House of Representative stated that CSR is compulsory in article 74 of Law No. 40/2007. Therefore Business Leaders nowadays are faced with the challenge to come up with innovative CSR activities for sustainability of their business and its contribution to economies and societies.
