Abstract
One idea that focuses on the three pillars of sustainability, the economic, social, and environmental pillars, is sustainable development. The main challenge is achieving the balance of economic, social, and environmental elements. BUMN, as a business unit owned by the Government of Indonesia, has a unique role as an agent of development based on the concept of sustainable development. For a corporation in the mining industry, the task is particularly difficult. The integration of a state-owned company's idea of sustainable development, including actions stated in the disclosures, is investigated in this study. Observational data in this study are narrative disclosures presented in the Company's sustainability report from 2007 to 2018. This study applies qualitative content analysis techniques. The results presented are the initial results of the analysis conducted. The results revealed that as a state-owned company, the Company exhibited the concept of sustainable development as a basis for presenting sustainability reports that showed economic performance, social responsibility, and the environment. Disclosure of environmental and social performance has a larger portion than economic performance. Observation companies prioritize environmental preservation and social aspects, including human rights, labor, product responsibility, and society in carrying out corporate activities.
期刊介绍:
Qualitative Research in Accounting & Management is an international journal that promotes qualitative research at the interface of accounting and management. The journal encourages the assessment of practices in the accounting field through a variety of theoretical lenses, and seeks to further our knowledge of the accounting-management nexus in its broadest (e.g., organisational, social and political) contexts. QRAM welcomes submissions of original research papers, conceptual pieces, substantive review articles, and shorter papers such as comments or research notes. The following is intended to indicate potential topics, but is by no means prescriptive. These topics can be overlapping rather than discrete subject areas, and researchers should not feel restricted by the scope of the topics listed below. • Management accounting and control • Accountability, transition and organisational change • Performance management and accounting metrics • Accounting for strategic management • The use and behavioural effects of accounting information in organisational decision-making • Public and third sector accounting and management • Accounting and management controls for sustainability and the environment • Historical perspectives on the accounting-management interface • Methods and methodologies for research at the interface of accounting and management • Accounting and management in developing countries and emerging economies • Technology effects on accounting-management dynamics
