Introduction: To survive in today’s dynamic environment, organizations should utilize all tools and methods to create competitive advantage and added value to attract and retain customers. Also, today, the increasing complexity of organizations and the increase of immoral and illegal activities in business environments have necessitated the importance of paying attention to business ethics. Therefore, one of the basic tools is to understand corporate citizenship dealing more with business ethics issues.

Methodology: This research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive in terms of research method. The statistical population of the research includes senior managers of companies active in the food industry in Qom province. To determine the sample size, the model provided by Klein in 2005 was used. According to the number of research questions, which is 53 questions. To obtain a comprehensive sample of the statistical population, 400 questionnaires were collected in the form of face-to-face questionnaires using the available sampling method. To validate the content, several questionnaires were distributed among 10 university professors and experts, and the reasonableness, comprehensibility of the questions, and appropriateness of the variables were ensured. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to check the reliability of the questionnaire. This coefficient was calculated separately for each research variable. To check the research data and test the hypotheses, SPS and Lisrel statistical software have been used.
