Abstract
Kurumsal sosyal sorumluluk, işletmelerin faaliyetlerinin toplum üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerini en aza indirip olumlu etkilerini en üst düzeye çıkarmalarını sağlayan bir strateji ve uygulama olarak tanımlanabilir. Günümüz rekabetçi koşullarında işletmeler sadece geleneksel kar etme amacından çıkıp, varlıklarını sürdürebilmek ve rekabet edebilmek için çeşitli stratejiler geliştirmek zorundadırlar. Bu nedenle işletmeler toplum ve çevre üzerindeki etkilerini gözden geçirerek, iç ve dış paydaşlarıyla olumlu ve sürdürülebilir ilişkiler geliştirmenin yollarını aramaktadırlar. 1950'lerde ortaya çıkan kurumsal sosyal sorumluluk kavramı günümüzde artık toplumun fazlasıyla dikkat ettiği ve önem verdiği bir konu haline gelmiştir..Tüketiciler hizmet/ürün satın alırken işletmelerin kurumsal sosyal sorumluluklarını ne kadar yerine getirdiklerini dikkate almaktadırlar. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı kurumsal sosyal sorumluluğun müşteri tatmini ve müşteri sadakati üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Bu amacı gerçekleştirmek üzere Türk Hava Yolları Üzerine anket çalışması yapılmıştır. Toplam 484 kişi üzerine yapılan çalışmada SPSS 20, AMOS 20 ve SPSS paket programına eklentili çalışan PROCESS MACRO paket programları kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda kurumsal sosyal sorumululuğun müşteri sadakati ve müşteri tatmini üzerinde pozitif ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada elde edilen önemli bir bulgu da müşteri tatmininin kurumsal sosyal sorumluluk ve müşteri sadakati ilişkisinde aracılık rolünün olduğunu ortaya koymasıdır.
