Abstract

This study examines the impact of sustainability accounting on the commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of listed oil and gas companies in Nigeria. The purpose of this research is to establish the influence of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) provisions on the commitment to corporate social responsibility among listed oil and gas firms in Nigeria. An ex post facto research design was employed while data was sourced from the annual reports of 7 listed oil and gas firms in Nigeria for a period of 6 years (2017 – 2022). The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation analysis while the hypotheses were tested using multiple regression analysis with the aid of E-views Statistical Package. The empirical results revealed that compliance to Global reporting Initiative (GRI) social provision has a negative but significant effect on commitment to CSR, compliance to GRI governance provision has a positive but significant effect on commitment to CSR and compliance to GRI environmental provision has a positive but insignificant effect on commitment to CSR. It is recommended that standard setters develop guidelines to meet local context, country differences and it is suggested that future research should consider other sectors, regions and factors that can influence CSR practices.
