Abstract

In this study, the influence of three factors of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Ecological aspect, Voluntarism, and Social aspect on soft results, that is, on Intangible project benefits in project-based companies in Serbia has been examined. For this purpose, the conceptual model with three hypotheses was developed. For hypothesis testing the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used. The tested sample comprised of 184 respondents from different business sectors. The results of empirical study confirm the hypothesis and point out the existence of positive correlations between model constructs. However, only two hypotheses (H1 and H3), that impose the positive influence of constructs Ecological aspect and Social aspect towards Intangible project benefits have statistical significance and acceptable. The hypothesis H2, that imposes the positive influence of construct Voluntarism on Intangible project benefits, although is being confirmed, is not statistically significant. Obtained results are suitable for comparisons with other researchers conducted in transitional economies as well as in developed economies.
