Article Preview

Abstract:

As an important component of corporate social responsibility, people pay more and more attention to enterprises environmental awareness, especially the listed company. Due to its multi-criteria nature, selecting a proper method involves an insight analysis among available multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques. Among numerous methods of MCDM, this paper presents a decision framework based on fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) for evaluating the environmental awareness of listed companies. The applicability of the proposed approach is verified through a case study.
