The paper contributes to enhance the body of knowledge for academicians and companies to enhance employees' commitment and efficiency through CSR framework. There is no previous paper containing variables of interest in comparative economies' context. This study investigated the role of social support programme in sustaining human capital under Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) framework. Using comparative analysis, we examined the employees’ perception and organisational commitment at workplace influenced by CSR. It has been found that CSR significantly improved the employees’ perception and commitment. CSR strengthens social support, diversity, health and safety, and equal treatment at both layers of management. Interestingly, females’ organisational commitment is significantly influenced by external CSR than males do. The importance of social support and CSR is highly visible among Canadian workers in contrast to Pakistani workers indicating to be reasons for higher organisational commitment.

Artykuł przyczynia się do poszerzenia wiedzy naukowców i firm w celu zwiększenia zaangażowania i wydajności pracowników poprzez ramy CSR. Nie ma wcześniejszej publikacji zawierającej zmienne będące przedmiotem zainteresowania w kontekście gospodarek porównawczych. W badaniu zbadano rolę programu wsparcia społecznego w utrzymaniu kapitału ludzkiego w ramach społecznej odpowiedzialności biznesu (CSR). Korzystając z analizy porównawczej, zbadaliśmy postrzeganie pracowników i zaangażowanie organizacyjne w miejscu pracy, na które wpływa CSR. Stwierdzono, że CSR znacznie poprawiło percepcję i zaangażowanie pracowników. CSR wzmacnia wsparcie społeczne, różnorodność, zdrowie i bezpieczeństwo oraz równe traktowanie na obu poziomach zarządzania. Co ciekawe, na zaangażowanie organizacyjne kobiet w znacznym stopniu wpływa zewnętrzna CSR niż mężczyźni. Znaczenie wsparcia społecznego i CSR jest bardzo widoczne wśród pracowników kanadyjskich, w przeciwieństwie do pracowników z Pakistanu, wskazując, że są powodem większego zaangażowania organizacyjnego.
