사회복지에서 ESG경영의 도입 실태 연구: 대전광역시 종합사회복지관을 중심으로

ESG has increasingly established a foothold in the field of social welfare and is emerging as a significant paradigm. However, empirical evidence regarding its applicability and implementation within social welfare organizations remains limited. This study conducted an exploratory investigation to assess the applicability of ESG management to the social welfare sector. A structured survey was administered to the directors of 19 social welfare organizations in Daejeon Metropolitan City. The survey instrument was designed by identifying the primary functions and tasks of social welfare organizations and applying the PDCA Cycle framework. The analysis revealed results regarding stepwise promotion rates, institutional promotion levels, positive and negative perceptions, and detailed awareness and implementation tasks related to ESG management. Overall, the study found that ESG management adoption remains at an early stage, with substantial variation across institutions. Based on these findings, the study proposes core implementation strategies and detailed guidelines to facilitate the revitalization and effective integration of ESG management within the social welfare sector.
