Abstract
Current firm performance is not only measured by economic term (single bottom line) but also by social and environmental (triple bottom line). Purposes of this research are analyzing of TBL disclosure and influences factors, by using sample of companies in Indonesia and Japan. This paper investigates Triple Bottom Line (TBL) disclosure of 50 of the largest Indonesian and Japanese companies by using secondary data. Twenty two disclosure criteria were developed for each of the TBL disclosure areas: economic, social, and enviromental. Disclosure information was examined in annual reports, separate or stand-alone report and company‟s website. Regression analysis has been used to examine the determinants of TBL disclosure practice empirically. Our result indicated that, for total of TBL disclosure (combining economic, social and environmental catagories), the extent of reporting is higher for firm with larger size and higher liquidity, and special for environmental disclosure for firm with membership in the manufacturing industry for Indonesian companies. Futher analysis indicated that the results of the total TBL disclosure are primarily driven by non-economic disclosures. We also found that the extent of overall TBL disclosure is higher for Japanese firms, with environmental disclosure being the main key. This result could be attributed to the different national cultures and to the regulation environment between Indonesian and Japan.
Bahasa Abstract
Kinerja perusahaan saat ini tidak hanya cukup diukur secara ekonomi (single bottom line) namun juga secara sosial dan lingkungan (triple bottom line). Penelitian ini bermaksud untuk menganalisis pengungkapan TBL dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhinya dengan sampel perusahaan-perusahaan di negara Indonesia dan Jepang. Penelitian ini menggunakan data sekunder atas 50 perusahaan terbesar di masing-masing Negara Indonesia dan Jepang. 22 kriteria pengungkapan dikembangkan untuk setiap area pengungkapan yaitu ekonomi, sosial dan lingkungan. Informasi pengungkapan diuji dalam laporan tahunan, laporan terpisah lainnya dan website perusahaan. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa pengungkapan TBL pada perusahaan Jepang lebih luas dibandingkan dengan di Indonesia, terutama pada pengungkapan lingkungan. Pengungkapan TBL lebih luas terjadi pada perusahaan yang memiliki ukuran perusahaan yang lebih besar dan likuiditas yang lebih tinggi. Faktor industri manufaktur mempengaruhi pengungkapan mengenai lingkungan pada perusahaan di Indonesia. Pengungkapan total TBL lebih didominasi oleh pengungkapan non ekonomi.
