What is Non-Financial Reporting and Sustainability?Non-financial reporting involves disclosing a company's performance in areas beyond financial metrics, such as sustainability, environmental impact, social responsibility, and corporate governance. This reporting measures and monitors how well a company meets its environmental and social responsibilities, not just its financial success. Sustainability is crucial for preserving natural resources, maintaining environmental balance, and ensuring societal well-being. For companies, it is vital for long-term business continuity and reputation management. Sustainable practices lead to cost savings, increased operational efficiency, and innovative solutions.What is Corporate Culture?Culture is the sum of shared values, beliefs, norms, and traditions within a community.
