Tiivistelmä:This article aims to examine the quality of stakeholder engagement (SE) in sustainability reporting (SR). The first part discusses the role of SE in SR according to the literature: SE is a fundamental step of the reporting process resulting from its role in defining materiality and relevance of the communicated information. The second part comprises of an empirical analysis of a sample of sustainability reports.
