In the two decades that Intel has been releasing environmental and corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports, the CSR reporting landscape has changed dramatically. Once a topic reserved for specialists, today 85% of S&P 500 companies1 regularly publish CSR reports and many reporters cover CSR for major media organizations.
Today, Intel released its latest CSR report, highlighting the progress made over the past year toward our 2020 goals. But do these reports really matter? We at Intel think they do – more than ever, in fact – because of how important they are to our stakeholders, including investors, customers and employees. These groups demand more accountability than ever, and companies have an obligation to be transparent with them.
