中外企业社会责任报告信息披露比较

本文通过对中国石油和壳牌石油2006~2009年度社会责任报告在形式和内容上的比较,分析了中外企业社会责任报告披露的异同之处,然后对改进我国企业社会责任报告披露提出了一些重要启示:统一社会责任报告的编制框架;完善利益相关方的参与和信息反馈机制;开展社会责任报告第三方审验;社会责任报告内容要体现平衡原则;选择适当的社会责任报告披露形式以提高披露的效果。     

国外公司社会责任报告主要模式述评

面对全球公司社会责任报告日益增多但又缺乏统一标准的情况，一些国际非政府组织开始着手建立统一的社会责任报告标准，形成了三种主要的报告模式：“全球报告行动”的G3报告框架、“国际社会责任”的SAS000标准，以及“社会和伦理责任协会”的AA1000系列。这三种模式在推动社会责任报告的共同目标下，既相互独立、各有侧重又相互联系、互为补充，同时也为认识我国公司社会责任报告的必要性、统一性和目的性提供了有益的启示。     

企业社会责任信息披露指标体系的构建

社会责任越来越受到经济社会的重视,如何计量和报告企业所承担的社会责任情况,成为了会计学科里一个新的研究热点,在分析和比较国外社会责任信息披露现状的基础上,结合国内的实际情况,参考了全球报告倡议组织（GRI）评价体系,试图从经济、社会、环境三个角度出发,分为六大类二十七小类构建出适合我国国情的企业社会责任信息披露指标体系。     

商业银行社会责任及其报告披露:问题与改进

商业银行履行社会责任有其经济理论与实践逻辑基础.与国外银行领先实践与企业社会责任评估标准相比较,我国商业银行履行社会责任并进行报告披露尚处于起始阶段.本文总结回顾了我国商业银行社会责任发展的历程及其报告披露概况,并就存在的问题有针对性地提出了六条具体改进策略:将履行社会责任嵌入到银行发展战略、治理架构、企业文化和业务流程之中,制定明确的社会责任目标和执行计划并加强评估,探索建立统一的企业社会责任指标评价体系与报告指南,适时引入并建立商业银行社会责任报告第三方独立鉴证制度,发挥政府积极作用促进商业银行更好地履行社会责任,谨防社会责任虚无主义和管理者机会主义错误倾向.     

论商业银行的社会责任

商业银行的社会责任主要指商业银行对其利益相关者所承担的经济、法律、道德和慈善方面的责任.履行社会责任是现代商业银行成熟的标志,也是完善商业银行公司治理机制的重要举措.我国商业银行在履行社会责任方面与国外商业银行相比还有很大差距,主要体现在社会责任观念淡薄、相关管理目标缺乏、支持慈善事业力度不够、员工劳动保护措施不力、诚信竞争原则不足等方面.鉴于此,作者指出商业银行履行社会责任需要多重力量,需要政府和社会的推动、法律和制度的外部强制、舆论的监督和引导,更需要商业银行内部自律机制,以完善治理结构为契机,加强自我约束,使其符合企业社会责任规范.     

The institutionalisation of corporate social responsibility reporting

This study examines corporate social responsibility reporting (CSRR) structures through a comparison of the disclosures in two countries with different social issues. The analysis is guided by a focus on the legitimisation offered by isomorphism. We compare the 2007 annual report and website (including standalone report) CSRR of a matched sample of 18 Australian and 18 South African mining companies. Among the 30 comparisons of disclosure patterns, 29 show no difference. We also provide examples of specific disclosures that show a remarkable level of similarity in CSRR and in the CSRR management structures adopted in the two countries. Our findings show similar overall patterns of CSRR in diverse settings, while differences in CSRR content at a more detailed level remain. For example, companies refer to the applicable national regulations and rules; as well as to their specific local communities. These findings provide evidence that the same reporting templates are used in CSRR globally. There is evidence to suggest that CSRR is institutionalised through professionalization and other means, suggesting a need to interpret CSRR characteristics and patterns as a reflection of global CSRR templates. Management intent or company-specific characteristics, such as social and environmental performance, do not necessarily drive CSRR patterns.     

国企高管超额薪酬与自愿披露社会责任：“为公利”还是“解私忧”?

基于代理理论,运用回归分析模型,依据社会责任披露意愿和质量的相关数据,考量国有企业高管超额薪酬对自愿披露社会责任的影响。结果发现：国有企业高管超额薪酬与企业自愿披露社会责任正相关;高管薪酬超过契约参照点的程度越高,超额薪酬对自愿披露社会责任质量的影响程度就越高,会导致企业的股价崩盘风险升高的经济后果,高管超额薪酬与企业业绩显著负相关。鉴于此,可为企业自愿披露社会责任的“薪酬辩护”动机提供证据。     

Corporate social responsibility: An umbrella or a puddle on a rainy day? Evidence surrounding corporate financial misconduct

We examine the way a fraudulent firm's pre‐ and post‐misconduct corporate social responsibility engagement is associated with its stock performance to investigate the reputational role of corporate social responsibility (CSR). In the short term, firms with good CSR performance suffer smaller market penalties upon the revelation of financial wrongdoing, supporting the buffer effect, as opposed to the backfire effect, of a good social image. We also find that the misbehaving firms’ post‐misconduct CSR efforts are negatively associated with delisting probabilities, and positively with stock returns. These findings support the argument that increasing post‐crisis CSR engagement can be an effective remedy for a damaged reputation.

上市公司社会责任报告解读与完善建议

国内关于社会责任信息披露的研究主要以年报为主，本文以（2006年20份专门的社会责任报告为研究对象，对报告进行内容分析和整体质量解读。本文认为，社会责任报告是公司传递社会责任信息的有效途径，政策指引对相关披露具有良好的引导推动作用，并且公司之间形成了披露的示范效应；但也发现公司对社会责任理解存在偏差、披露缺乏中立性、形式重于实质等问题。本文最后提出了完善社会责任报告的建议与思考。     

Risk management of Chinese food companies; a management perspective

This study investigated the current situation of food risk management (FRM) in Chinese companies and the factors that influence the effectiveness of risk management measures. FRM is considered from the perspective of food company managers in 161 food companies surveyed in the Provinces of Henan and Hubei, Central China. Results suggest that the current FRM situation in China is poor, and the most important factor influencing the effectiveness of FRM measures is the financial resource allocated to FRM. Other affecting factors include the level of corporate social responsibility (CSR) engagement of the company and the company size (measured by the number of employees). The better the CSR, the better the FRM; the larger the company, the less effective the FRM measures are. The study provides some suggestions for policy-making and further research.
