“…Thematic reporting addresses complex and multifaceted challenges that often affect a significant number of diverse sectors. This type of reporting can involve innovative and creative ways of collecting data, unofficial data sources, and analyzing and processing data (Kozel et al, 2015). A summary of thematic areas and leading indicators for monitoring sustainability is presented in Table 1.…”

The purpose of the article is to present the results of a PEST analysis of the legal, economic, social and technological determinants of hard coal market development in the European Union from 1990 to 2030. Design/methodology/approach: The research process was carried out with the use of four methods: analysis and synthesis (1) critical review of the literature (2), statistical techniques (3) and an industry case study (4). Findings: Detail regulatory (legal), economic, social (socio-cultural) and technology variables affecting the hard coal market have been identified. All the factors examined exhibited a destimulating effect on the development of the market, from the perspective of the entities operating on the hard coal extraction and utilization market in the European Union. The most pronounced negative effect stems from the social factors. The impact of the legal and economic determinants is of similar magnitude, whereas technological changes show the lowest potency in this regard. Research limitations/implications: Dynamic geopolitical changes and high susceptibility to interventionism can significantly affect the deviations of point forecasts in the pest coal industry in the long run. Practical implications: PEST analysis is used to assess the development of economic sectors regardless of the industry life cycle phase. It can also help determine a given industry's life cycle phase and its future migration trends in practice. Originality/value: The originality of this article lies in the employment of the quantification of macroenvironmental areas significantly affecting the industry, using an authorially modified PEST-based analysis.

“…Jamali and Dirani [24] pointed to the fact that both strategies address internal stakeholders as the target group. Although there are some tendencies to legislate the issues of CSR [25,26], the implementation of both strategies is still optional and goes beyond legal obligations [27]. Both strategies address the issues of human rights and inclusiveness [24,28].…”

Abstract:The relevance of diversity has been recognised by academics and researchers as well as decision-makers. Diversity reporting can be perceived as the first step in addressing inequalities in organisations and potential assistance for the diversity agenda, because it allows measuring diversity and ultimately managing it. However, the recognition of the importance of diversity and diversity reporting does not necessarily contribute to a greater inclusion of diversity into sustainability reporting. The following paper attempts to determine the scope of diversity reporting, the specificity of the collected and disclosed diversity data, as well as the determinants of diversity reporting. For this purpose, a CATI (computer-assisted telephone interview) research was conducted, involving companies indexed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The results were analysed using the Cramer's V contingency measure, the Kruskal-Wallis H test and ordinal regression. The results show a substantial difference in the collection of diversity information between organisations that map and that do not map their stakeholders. Furthermore, they show that, when organisations collect diversity data, their specificity is rather high, however this does not translate into an equally high level of diversity disclosure. Furthermore, the paper analyses the possible determinants of diversity disclosure, which do not necessarily overlap with the determinants of sustainability reporting.
