The content of the article touches the problem of barriers concerning CSR implementation. Corporate social responsibility is a conception of management which is more and more popular among Polish enterprises, but some companies still have some problems related to CSR. The author presents the selected external and internal barriers and limits of CSR implementation in the light of own research. The aim of the article is to analyze the most important limitations of CSR on the example of socially responsible enterprises highlighted in the "Równa Firma" Poll in 2018. The priority of the "Równa Firma" Poll is to award socially responsible companies from the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. The survey was carried out in enterprises from various sectors. The elimination of these barriers can help to implement socially responsible practices in chosen Polish enterprises.
