Acting in a socially responsible way

The Socially Responsible Conduct competency indicates whether you take into account broad social goals and interests and the effects that your own actions and your own organisation/products have on them. An example of a question that belongs to this competence is: "I feel involved in organizations that take society and the environment into account".
