Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the impact of environmental performance, audit committee, board of directors, and profitability on company disclosure of sustainability reports. Apart from that, this study also tries to examine the role of the use of information technology in moderating the impact of environmental performance, audit committee, board of directors, and profitability on sustainability report disclosures. This research focuses on companies that are members of the Asia Sustainability Report Rating (ASRR) between 2018 and 2021, with a total of 109 companies. The research sample was selected using a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 28 companies with a total of 64 analysis units used. The data analysis techniques used include descriptive statistics, panel data regression analysis, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with the help of Eviews 12 software. The best model used in this research is the Random Effect Model (REM). The research results show that the audit committee has a positive influence on sustainability report disclosure, while the board of directors has a negative influence. However, environmental performance and profitability do not show a significant influence on sustainability report disclosure. In addition, the use of information technology provides a moderating role by strengthening the relationship between environmental performance and sustainability report disclosures, although it does not affect the relationship between the audit committee, board of directors, and profitability and sustainability report disclosures.
