The study was carried out using SRI-KEHATI index firms in 2022 on IDX. The sampling approach utilized was non-probability sampling employing purposive sampling technique, so that 63 observations were obtained. Data collection using non-participant observation method, by utilizing SPSS and applying multiple linear regression analysis techniques. The test outcomes reveal that media exposure, environmental pressure, consumer pressure, and audit committee contribute positively to sustainability report’s quality. Concurrently, employee pressure does not influence sustainability report quality and shareholder pressure exerts a detrimental impact on sustainability report quality. The implications of this research support theories of stakeholder and legitimacy, and help users of sustainability report information or stakeholders, especially investors, creditors, and the public in determining the company's sustainability report quality.
