Nell’ambito del tema della gestione della salute e sicurezza sui luoghi di lavoro, il presente contributo indaga il tema della comunicazione esterna da parte delle aziende del settore dell’igiene ambientale. L’indagine, che utilizza il metodo della content analisys, si basa sulle informazioni raccolte dai bilanci di sostenibilità prodotti dalle aziende, e mostra come la disclosure sia ancora una pratica di nicchia. Lo studio mostra una bassa attitudine da parte delle aziende a informare gli stakeholders sui processi implementati e sugli investimenti svolti. Diversamente, la comunicazione dei risultati ottenuti appare maggiormente sviluppata.;
