The main objective of this paper is to determine whether the perception of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and existence of labor contractualization has a significant effect on the job satisfaction of employees. The respondents were chosen from the top 4 food and beverages companies in the list provided by Department of Labor and Employment which believed engaging in labor contractualization practices in the Philippines. The impact was tested using binary logistic regression and the results showed that CSR has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction while labor contractualization has a negative and significant effect. This suggests that as employee perceived the CSR practices of the company, the higher their job satisfaction would be. Also, when the employee status is contractual (not regular), the lower the job satisfaction would be. The prior literatures have examined the effect of CSR or contractualization on job satisfaction separately and not together. Surprisingly, the results are still consistent when taken together.
