The purpose of this article is to introduce one of the less popular areas of socially responsible activities, namely fair operating practices. The author presents the principles of this activity and describes specific practices that may be undertaken within this framework. Additionally, the author attempts to assess the activity in the area of fair operating practices among businesses operating in Poland. The analysis of companies' activities in this area seems to be particularly important, as this area concerns companies' behaviors on the market, shaping relations with other entities and developing fair competition. Activities in the area of fair operating practices also build a positive image of the organization among all stakeholders. The results of the Responsible Business in Poland reports for the years 2011–2020 have been used for the assessment. The analysis has shown that Polish organizations are still not very interested in activities in this area.

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie jednego z mniej popularnych obszarów działań społecznie odpowiedzialnych, a mianowicie obszaru uczciwych praktyk operacyjnych. Autorka przedstawia istotę tej aktywności oraz wskazuje konkretne praktyki, które mogą być podejmowane w jej ramach. Dodatkowo autorka podejmuje próbę oceny aktywności w obszarze uczciwych praktyk operacyjnych wśród podmiotów działających w Polsce. Analiza aktywności firm w tym obszarze wydaje się szczególnie ważna, bowiem obszar ten dotyczy zachowań przedsiębiorstw na rynku, kształtowania stosunków z innymi podmiotami, rozwoju uczciwej konkurencji. Działania w obszarze uczciwych praktyk operacyjnych budują także pozytywny wizerunek organizacji wśród wszystkich interesariuszy. Do oceny wykorzystano wyniki raportów Odpowiedzialny biznes w Polsce z lat 2011–2020. Przeprowadzona analiza pokazała, że zainteresowanie polskich organizacji działaniami w tym zakresie jest jeszcze niewielkie.

The development of the Internet has created new opportunities in every field of social responsibility, including volunteering. An interesting new trend has been born – e-volunteering, which enables people to help others without leaving the house. E-volunteering is primarily based upon employee competences. It enables the sharing of knowledge and skills. In the essay, the author ponders whether e-volunteering is a thriving phenomenon. She tries to describe the new trend, pointing out its benefits and possible related issues. In the thesis, it is stated that e-volunteering is in fact prosperous. It saves volunteers’ time, reduces associated costs, and isn’t only limited to the volunteers’ neighborhood. However, this form of volunteering won’t replace the traditional volunteering activities, especially those based upon direct contact with trainees.

Both in theory and practice, it is emphasised that engaging in CSR actions brings many benefits to companies. One of the commonly listed advantages is more trust from investors, which enables the achievement of superior returns from securities issued by socially responsible firms. The paper endeavours to investigate whether this benefit can be also noticed among businesses in the Polish index of socially responsible companies RESPECT. The study involves firms included in the RESPECT index from its inception (November 2011) to the end of 2017. The authors compared the RESPECT index with selected Polish market indices between 2009 and 2017. Empirical studies, based on an analysis of returns, risk, dividend yields, and shareholder structure, facilitated the assessment of the attractiveness of investments in the shares of socially responsible businesses against the background of other firms quoted on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
