الملخص الإنجليزي

Family businesses dominate most of the world’s economies including Palestine, and despite of their economic relevance, studying their unique attributes have been largely overlooked in literature as most of the empirical and theoretical researches treated family businesses as a homogeneous group and ignored the influence of their unique features on different accepts of the business including their social responsibility practices.

This research aims to provide an insight of CSR approaches adopted by Palestinian family businesses through out analyzing their practices toward six key stakeholders (Community; environment; employees; customers; suppliers and shareholders).

The study also seeks to investigate if the size, generation, family involvement and industry sector influence the social practices of these businesses.

To achieve the study objectives an Ethical Performance Scorecard model (EPS) is adopted to investigate the social practices in 241 Palestinian family businesses that have been randomly selected from a list acquired from the Hebron Chamber of Commerce, Industry & Agriculture.

The research initially demonstrates that family businesses are more engaged with practices that impact employees, customers and suppliers more than the other stakeholder groups.

On this finding, it further proves that family involvement and the company size has positive influence on CSR practices of the business, and that the industry sector only affects the business's environmental practices.

On the other hand, the generation of the company found not to affect CSR practices of the business.
