This research investigates how organisations address sustainability within their business activities. Contextualised within a rapidly developing country, the research explores how management practices, tools and techniques are implemented by foreign multinational enterprises (MNEs) operating in the Philippines. Foreign MNEs have been identified as not only a key source of economic development and progress but also a basis for increasing the standards and practices being implemented within the Philippines by the private sector.

Framing this investigation is the development of a consolidated sustainability assessment framework, which provides the basis for examining the practices of these foreign MNEs. Despite being identified as a key basis in supporting the implementation of more systematic practices to address sustainability, there is scant empirical literature on how this is adopted by the private sector. This is particularly the case in developing countries, where sustainability assessments may have the greatest impact on connecting the private sector with sustainability.

A three-stage and six-step sustainability assessment framework is developed to guide this investigation. The three stages are framed around impact identification, impact assessment and impact monitoring, with the six steps associated with these stages, including the initiation step, scoping, impact analysis, alternative selection, monitoring and evaluation, and feedback and follow-up.

In empirically testing this framework, this research utilises a constructivist paradigm and qualitative research approach. A case study design is utilised to examine the practices of 24 organisations across the manufacturing, utilities and mining sectors, with 92 personnel involved in interviews across these organisations. This primary data was triangulated against secondary data sources, including sustainability reports, and analysed through thematic analysis linked to the sustainability assessment framework. A Computer Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis software (NVivo) was utilised to assist the data analysis.

Based on the thematic analysis of interviews and secondary data across these 24 organisations, empirical support has been provided for the broader sustainability assessment framework that has been developed. The findings indicate that while the framework is not reflective of a linear process within actual practice, it does cover the main management practices being implemented by foreign MNEs operating in the Philippines. Building on this, the data also provides key insights into the main tools and techniques being utilised by organisations across the process, which presents a unique contribution to the literature.

The findings and implications of this research suggest that while regulation provides a basis for triggering some practices of organisations, it is only a starting point. It is clear from the analysis of the organisations within the sample that voluntary guidelines and global sustainability platforms play an instrumental role in directing the practices of organisations when implementing a sustainability assessment.
