Criticism:
AntiCSR explained that there is no real criteria to be a Social
Business, other than to claim to address a social problem. Some
businesses use the social business label to mimic a charity and avoid
criticism. Others use the label to improve their brand image and gain
customers. AntiCSR also argued that the definition of a Social Business
is vague. Yunus, for example, stresses the concept as a 'non-dividend
paying company', where only the original investment is returned. The
managers or owners of the firm can take large amounts of salary and
other expenses and still remain a 'non-dividend' company. Other
principles of Social Business are also subjective, such as
'environmentally conscious' and 'better working conditions'. These are
difficult to define or measure
