In recent years, there has been increasing interest in corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the pharmaceutical industry. This is due to the impact of CSR on the society’s quality of life, along with the criticism regarding the economic interests of the industry.
From a Spanish context, this article pursues a twofold objective. Firstly, we undertook to analyze the information published by pharmaceutical companies in their sustainability reports. Secondly, we examined the determinants of disclosure of CSR-related information by these companies. The results indicate that pharmaceutical companies in Spain are highly committed to sustainable economic development – especially in the case of the most profitable and experienced pharmaceutical companies – and they prepare their sustainability reports in pursuance of the Global Reporting Initiative.
