    (Ege Univ, 2019) Saygili, Ebru; Saygılı, Arıkan Tarık; Yargi, Seher Goren
    The aim of this study is to discuss recent sustainability developments in the textile industry and to explore the disclosures of textile and apparel companies in Turkey. The economic, environmental and social sustainability disclosures of 34 companies were analyzed in relation to Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards. The results of the analysis revealed that the most frequently mentioned sustainability issues were related to employees, water, product, market, supplier, education, economic, energy and waste. A majority of companies provided economic disclosures about economic performance and anti-competition; environmental disclosures about water and effluents and energy; and social sustainability disclosures about training, education, employment, health and safety, diversity and equal opportunity, marketing and labeling.
