Abstract

This study seeks to examine the effect of customer orientation on customer loyalty and employee loyalty mediated by two dimensions of corporate social responsibility (CSR), discretionary and ethical dimensions. This study examined the effects of customer orientation on discretionary responsibility and ethical responsibility. Additionally, it examined the effect of discretionary responsibility and ethical responsibility on customer loyalty and organizational loyalty. In order to verify the hypothesis, we surveyed the employees of large companies and analyzed 239 valid data. First, customer orientation has a significant positive impact on discretionary responsibility. Second, customer orientation has a significant positive impact on ethical responsibility. Third, discretionary responsibility has a significant positive impact on customer loyalty. Fourth, discretionary responsibility has a significant positive impact on organizational loyalty. However, ethical responsibility does not predict customer loyalty and organizational loyalty. Theoretical and practical implications of the results of this study, limitations and directions for future research are discussed.

본 연구는 고객지향성이 기업의 사회적 책임(CSR)의 두 가지 차원인 재량적, 윤리적인 차원을 매개로 고객충성도과 조직충성도에 미치는 영향을 보려고 한다. 본 연구는 고객지향성이 재량적 책임과 윤리적 책임에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 또한, 재량적 책임과 윤리적 책임이 고객충성도와 조직충성도에 미치는 영향도 조사하였다. 가설 검증을 위해 대기업 종업원을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 239개의 유효 데이터를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 도출하였다. 첫째, 고객지향성은 재량적 책임에 유의한 정의 영향을 미친다. 둘째, 고객지향성은 윤리적 책임에 유의한 정의 영향을 미친다. 셋째, 재량적 책임은 고객충성도에 유의한 정의 영향을 미친다. 넷째, 재량적 책임은 조직충성도에 유의한 정의 영향을 미친다. 하지만 윤리적 책임이 고객충성도와 조직충성도에 유의한 정의 영향을 미친다는 가설은 기각되었다. 본 연구의 결과에 따른 이론적 및 실무적인 시사점, 연구의 한계점 그리고 앞으로의 연구 방향을 제시하였다.
