Sethi CSR Monitor

The Sethi CSR Monitor is the first attempt to systematically analyze the reporting of corporate social responsibility and sustainability efforts by major corporations from around the world. Developed by Prakash Sethi, University Distinguished Professor in Baruch’s Department of Management, it is based on a content analysis of annual CSR reports across a wide range of industries and countries and compares results across industries and regions. The Sethi CSR Monitor relies on a system of objective coding to rate annual CSR reports along 12 key dimensions. It is designed to capture how well companies discuss their activities and performance dealing with issues of environment, corporate social responsibility and governance.
