Moreover the importance of the development of common reporting standards is pointed out. In this context especially the most important principles of the reporting guidelines published by the GRI are highlighted. The GRI guidelines were chosen as DaimlerChrysler, the multinational company which is considered in the second section of this assignment, gears its reporting issues related to sustainability to them. Moreover benefits and limitations of social and environmental auditing a multinational company will recognise are stated.
