Description
Summary:The United Nations encourages companies to implement sustainable activities and practices in their daily operations. Corporate governance is acknowledged as one of the best mechanisms to encourage companies' sustainable practices. Corporate governance mechanisms are a solution to lessen conflicts of interest between management and the company's owner by reporting sustainable practices in the company's annual reports. The purpose of this study is to create and enhance the framework of corporate governance mechanisms that can be used as factors towards sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) disclosure. By using "corporate governance mechanisms", "SSCM", "disclosure", and "agency theory"as main keywords in a database search, the comprehensive corporate governance mechanisms will lead to the research outcome about SSCM disclosure. The findings of this study indicated that all corporate mechanisms suggested are the best mechanisms to be adopted by companies to practice SSCM disclosure. © 2024 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
