Abstract
As an important component of modern management system, sustainability reporting in China was studied based on 162 stand-alone sustainability reports published by 116 Chinese enterprises till the end of 2008. Specifically, key topics and concrete content of these sustainability reports were investigated and compared from different aspects such as environmental, social, economic issues and corporate governance. After summarizing main findings, recommendations were proposed to possibly accelerate the sustainability reporting progress in China.
