Overview

Longitudinal content analysis reveals slow sustainability transitions in multinational firms, indicating persistence of compliance-driven reporting over science-based integration.

Key Points

  • Corporate sustainability reporting reflects a slow transition among multinational firms, driven largely by regulatory compliance rather than science-based integration.
  • Analysis of 10 multinational corporations on the JSE/FTSE index from 2016 to 2021 demonstrates static alignment within early corporate social responsibility stages.
  • Qualitative content analysis highlights the widespread failure of corporate environmental social governance frameworks to embed operations within ecological boundaries.
