Abstract
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has gained immense interest in recent times. Since CSR is divided into three categories; economic, social, environmental, among the sphere, the social part of sustainability lacks a precise definition. As a result, from a business organizational perspective, it isn't accessible to operationalization, which motivates the researcher to investigate how MNEs define and articulate social sustainability in their CSR reports. A multiple case study research design has been used to analyze five different multinational enterprises (MNEs). The social sustainability principles (SSP) such as Health, Influence, Competence, Impartiality, Meaning-making are implemented as a theoretical framework. Along with the sustainable development goals (SDG), Triple bottom line, Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) have been utilized throughout the analysis of the CSR reports. Keywords: CSR, MNE, SDG, GRI, Triple bottom line.
