Objetivos: [Quais são os objetivos da investigação?]
Previous research suggests that corporate social responsibility (CSR), that is, the attention given by organizations to the integration of social and environmental concerns in their business activities, has influence on diverse job-related attitudes and behaviors. Following this line of research, the present study aimed to analyze the relationship between employee perceptions of CSR and work engagement, within the scope of a research model that proposes perceived organizational support and person-organization fit as potential psychological mediators.

Data were analyzed using PROCESS macro for IBM SPSS 22.0. The results indicate that employees' perception of the level of involvement of their employer in CSR practices has a direct positive effect on their levels of work engagement. The more responsible the organization is considered, the more vigorous, dedicated and absorbed the employees becomes in their daily work. This effect is mediated by the proposed variables, which suggests that the involvement in socially responsible practices contributes to a greater perception of both organizational support and person-organization fit, which subsequently promote higher levels of engagement at work.
