Summary/Abstract: Corporate governance describes the principles, relationships and processes under which an entity is managed and its management bodies are controlled. The aim of the chapter is to assess the accounting policies of listed companies from the point of view of their compliance with good corporate governance practices for sustainable development. Using the source analysis method, the essence and legal basis for shaping corporate governance policy are presented. During the empirical study, five main thematic areas of non-application of corporate governance principles by companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in the WIG-ESG index were identified: (1) diversity policy towards the management board and the supervisory board, (2) reporting of ESG areas, (3) organization of the general meeting meetings, (4) remuneration of the supervisory board and managerial shares, (5) organization of internal audit.
