Journal Title: Journal of Economics, Finance and Management Studies - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 07
Abstract
This research paper explores the role of social audits in promoting a happy workplace and enhancing the performance of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Uganda. Despite the growing recognition of the importance of social responsibility in business operations, many SMEs in Uganda face challenges in implementing and maintaining ethical practices. This paper examines how social audits can serve as a remedy to address these challenges by fostering a positive work environment, improving employee well-being, enhancing productivity, and ensuring compliance with ethical standards. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, case studies, and interviews with SME owners and stakeholders in Uganda, this paper aims to provide insights into the potential benefits of social audits for SMEs in Uganda and offer recommendations for their effective implementation.
