In Japan, the market for certified forest products has been driven by large corporations, which can communicate their social responsibility activities to stakeholders by using forest certification in their corporate reporting. The purpose of this study was to examine the strategic role of forest certification in social responsibility reporting in Japan. An analysis of published corporate reports was conducted to examine how Japanese large corporations use forest certification in their social responsibility communications.
