Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2012, Vol 2012, Issue 6

Abstract

The aim of this research is to analyse to what extent Polish companies conform to international sustainability reporting standards. Furthermore, this study seeks to assess whether they are aware about sustainability dimensions or whether they use sustainability reporting simply as a tool for good reputation and marketing. Therefore, a scoring model was developed to assess the sustainability reports from all companies of the WIG 20 and mWIG 40.<br/><br/>
