ABSTRACT

Do CEOs engage in corporate social responsibility(CSR) for themselves or for others? On the one hand, CSR may provide a way for CEOs to pursue personal interests at the expense of shareholders; on the otherhand, CEOs may use CSR as an effective means to promote the welfare of stakeholders and to help firms gain long-term competitive advantages. This study tries to disentangle these two competing arguments in a unique context: when a CEO is significantly underpaid and feels unfairly treated. According tothe equity theory, underpaid CEOs attempt to restore fairness by eitherimproving their own benefits or reducing the benefits accrued to others. Withthe aim of restoring fairness, underpaid CEOs will engage more actively in CSR when the motive is self-serving, but less actively when the motive is other-regarding. With a sample of CEOs of S&P 1500 firmsfor 1996-2012, our results suggest that the self-serving motive works more saliently in the context of CEO underpayment. This effect is moderated by a setof factors at different levels (i.e., individual, group, and community) that either strengthen or weaken the perceived fairness. We discuss the implications of our findings for the CSR research and CEO compensation literature.

Key Words: CSR;CEO underpayment; fairness; injustice; equity theory; self-serving motive;other-regarding motive
