This is the excel spreadsheets created as part of my Thesis research. The purpose of this study was to review Sustainability Reports (SRs) issued by The Hartford Financial Services Group (HIG), and determine what concepts of corporate social responsibility (CSR) are reported, to what standard are the reports made, the degree in which corporate activity regarding CSR are reported, and how readily available this information is. Copies of HIG’s SRs were obtained through the Global Reporting Initiative’s (GRI) Sustainability Disclosure Database, and copies of HIG’s Annual 10-K Report to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission were obtained through HIG’s Investor Relations website. The disclosures were categorized based on the “three pillars of sustainability” as defined by the Brundtland Commission and Morelli (2011). These disclosures contained classifications under all “three pillars”, with the majority of disclosures falling underneath more than one classification.
