摘要 在2008年金融危機過後,除了短期獲利狀況外,投資人越來越重視企業對環境、社會風險的回應能力。為了回應投資人的期待與本身管理需求,越來越多企業開始主動編製社會責任報告書。透過揭露更多企業社會責任報告書裏非財務面的相關資訊,將促成各利害關係人共贏的局面。

綜上所述,企業社會責任的報導和揭露之重要性已不言而喻。過去的文獻指出,公司透過揭露企業社會責任的資訊能夠降低分析師盈餘預測差異、降低資金成本、提升公司價值,吸引更多具有社會責任觀的投資人投資。

本研究係以我國電子業與金融保險業之上市櫃公司為研究對象,透過內容分析法與統計分析法,發現之結果如下:

一、 「公司規模」、「產業別」、「獲利能力」會顯著影響公司的企業社會責任揭露程度。
二、 電子業於企業社會責任報告書中之「環境」衡量構面揭露資訊程度顯著大於金融保險業。
