Description
Summary:The significant of Business social responsibility (BSR) in society has led to some postulation that the connection behaviour can ultimately led to attainment of business success over its competitors.This paper examines the relationships between Perceived ethics, Trust of BSR on SMEs performances in the context of Nigeria.The study utilised the structural equation model (SEM). However, the findings reveals that perceived ethics was positively associated with SMEs performances; equally, Trust of BSR is connected with the same performance, while the correlation between perceived ethics and Trust of BSR was not significant.This may indicates that despite SMEs in Nigeria were quickly understand the circumstances of adopting ethical action practices, the concern of social practices is still be deficient.The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.
