The United Nations Global Compact, considered “the largest global corporate sustainability initiative” has completed its tenth anniversary in July 2010. This study contributes to better understand the impact of the Global Compact on Spanish companies. In particular, we analyse the motivations for joining the Global Compact and the perceived benefits, the results experienced directly and indirectly, and the parameters used in the preparation of Communication on Progress reports. The study is based on an online survey answered by 213 of the companies participating in the Global Compact in Spain in January/February 2010.
