Sammanfattning: Purpose: The purpose of our study is to understand how companies communicate sustainability internally. Furthermore, the study also aims to contribute with increased knowledge of employees’ insight into corporate sustainability reporting. Research questions: ❖How is sustainability communicated internally?❖To what extent are employees aware of corporate sustainability work? Method: In order to achieve the purpose and answer the study's questions, we have chosen to carry out a case study with two types of data collection. The empirical material for the study has been collected using both qualitative and quantitative methods. The qualitative material comes from structured interviews with the sustainability managerand three employees, while the quantitative data is based on a collection of 219 questionnaires that have been answered by employees at Spendrups. Conclusion: The study's results have shown that communication of sustainability work can take place in different ways and that different departments may prefer to absorb information by different sources of information. Knowledge of the sustainability work has been influenced by the employees' attitude towards sustainability. In addition, there are patterns that different departments have relatively more knowledge of sustainability issues related to their daily routines and tasks.
