Abstract

Fulfilling and disclosing social responsibilities has become part of a company’s day-to-day business activities. According to big data, the gender composition of corporate management personnel will make the degree and effect of corporate social responsibility disclosure. This paper uses relevant information technology to study the relationship between corporate social responsibility and the gender of corporate executives. The specific methods are as follows: This paper use Perl web page capture algorithm programming, we downloaded the annual reports of all listed companies from Cninfo.com. We utilized “jieba” programming embedded in Python and compiled all personal traits of female executives. Meanwhile, we utilized Python crawler to download all corporate social responsibilities from Hexun.com By constructing a correlation model of the relationship between female senior executives and corporate social responsibility performance and disclosure, and based on an empirical study of Chinese A-share listed companies, this paper finds that the number and shareholding ratio of female executives can both contribute to the performance of corporate social responsibility. And disclosure has a positive impact, and over-investment is inhibited by women’s participation in top management, and ultimately on CSR behavior. The purpose of this paper is to encourage companies to stimulate innovation and create a better engineer culture to inspire and motivate more female engineers to break through themselves, so that their talents can be brought into full play.
