SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN THE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTS: A KEY FACTOR FOR CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN THE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTS: A KEY FACTOR FOR CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Summary/Abstract: A corporate social responsibility begins with good process management that is, managing the sustainability along the supply chain. It comes to managing the flow of materials, information and capital, as well as cooperation between companies in the supply chain, taking into account environmental and social goals, as each organization could influence the reputation and performance of the rest. A tool to inform and communicate this management is through sustainability reports, although, for this it is necessary to improve the way to convey this information. Thereby, in this paper, we propose a model to present the sustainable information of supply chain supported by economic, social and environmental dimensions. In order to develop it, we have performed an analysis of the responsibility reports of different companies to determine the key factors that we must be considered. Lastly, we have contrasted the proposal with a larger sample of companies, testing the quality of information provided using statistical techniques.
