In today's world, businesses struggle to survive in an intense competitive environment as a result of
changes and developments that occur due to globalization. In this competitive environment, the importance of not only economic indicators but also social indicators is increasing day by day for businesses to gain competitive advantage. Therefore, businesses will be able to reveal their competitive
advantage in their economic, social and environmental aspects in their sustainability reports. In this
context, the main purpose of corporate sustainability and sustainability accounting is to meet the
information needs of the business stakeholders and to measure and evaluate the corporate performances of the enterprises as a result of their activities for sustainability purposes.The aim of this study

presented. The CRITIC method, which is one of the objective weighting methods, was used to determine the weight of the criteria, while the ARAS method was used to determine the performance rankings of alternatives. As a result of the analysis in terms of corporate sustainability, OTKAR has been
