What we found
RBC communicates their ‘Blueprint for Doing Better’ message clearly through a number of different reporting and communication channels. As well as the full 40-page PDF Sustainability Report, they also produce a 12-page review, designed for employees and customers. Meanwhile, their Sustainability website contains both the fullest source of information and their GRI Content Index (resulting in our classification of RBC as HTML reporters for the purposes of this research).
As well as producing reports for specific audience groups, their sustainability website also includes a specific ‘Environmental Blueprint’ document, and a document designed for students about their Sustainability activity.
RBC has published a 2009 Corporate Responsibility Report since our study was undertaken.
