February 25th, 2019

Corporate Social Responsibility is the conscious and
consistent with fully complying with the purpose of the company, both in terms of
both internally and externally, considering the economic, social and
environmental
of all its participants, demonstrating respect for people, ethical values,
community and the environment, thus contributing to the construction of good
common
A socially responsible company seeks the integration of concerns
social and environmental aspects in its business operations and its relationships with
its interlocutors and the different interest groups or stakeholders (The parties
stakeholders could be the workers of the company, its shareholders, the
customers, providers of goods and services, providers of capital,
affected or linked neighborhood associations, etc.) with a long-term vision.
The Ministry of Economy (SE), through the National Contact Point, has
as a mission to promote corporate social responsibility, through the
Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises of the Organization for the
Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
To unlock the power of corporate social responsibility, consider the
following strategies:

1. WRITE A CODE OF CONDUCT
The first phase to implement a CSR plan is to establish the code of ethics that
will define the company's philosophy in the future on preservation of the environment
environment and general social welfare. This code must be made using a
dialogue with each of the corporation's stakeholders in order to
keep long term.

2. IDENTIFY OBJECTIVES
Taking into account the new policy, objectives must be identified
achievable strategic goals in the short, medium and long term that adjust to the
peculiarities of the organization. To choose the objectives, it is necessary to take into account
account its production, values, the type of clients or the profile of the workers
in other aspects.

3. DIALOGUE WITH STAKEHOLDERS
Building relationships with community members through a
dialogue with stakeholders, review relationships with these groups and assess
how they affect the company and vice versa, looking for solutions to problems

detected and trying to respond to the expectations of all groups of
interest in the organization's strategy.

4. SELECT INDICATORS
The next step is to assess whether the actions are suitable for
achieve this objective through indicators such as satisfaction surveys,
number of complaints and resolution time, which allow verifying the achievement of
the objectives.
In Mexico, the Mexican Center for Philanthropy (Cemefi), the Confederation
Employers of the Mexican Republic (Coparmex) and the Coordinating Council
Business (CCE), as well as the other organizations that make up AliaRSE,
actively participate in the National Committee of the Global Compact, in charge of its
promotion and monitoring in our country.
The Corporate Social Responsibility indicators proposed for the
socially responsible business process are in line with these principles, and
were incorporated in 2003

5. PREPARE A SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
After this, a Sustainability Report should be drawn up that reflects the
economic, environmental and social performance of the company and collect all the
aforementioned actions. To this end, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)
developed the "Guide for the preparation of sustainability reports" that establishes
the most accepted and used standardized methodology worldwide.
Starting a route like the one described guarantees the good elaboration of a Plan of
Corporate Social Responsibility to allow the organization to advance in the
integration of social and environmental concerns in their way of
operation, responding to the specific needs and requirements of the
interest groups.
