ABSTRAK Seiring dengan peningkatan keprihatinan dunia akan isu-isu sosial dan lingkungan, maka
berkembang suatu tren baru dikalangan investor yakni Socially Responsible Investing (SRI).
Socially responsible investors (SRIs) sangat peduli akan praktik tanggung jawab sosial yang
dilakukan perusahaan. Hal ini membuat perubahan peran investor relations yang tidak hanya
mengkomunikasikan performa perusahaan secara finansial tetapi juga perlu mengkomunikasikan
mengenai nilai, prinsip dan visi perusahaan secara jelas yang juga diwujudnyatakan dalam praktik
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) perusahaan tersebut. Oleh karena itu peran investor
relations (IR) saat ini juga turut mengkomunikasikan CSR perusahaan kepada publiknya. Makalah
ini menganalisa peran IRO dalam mengkomunikasikan CSR perusahaan dengan menggunakan
metode deskriptif kualitatif berdasarkan hasil wawancara terhadap Investor relations officers PT
Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk sebagai salah satu perusahaan yang masuk dalam indeks SRI
Kehati, yakni indeks yang mengacu pada tata cara Sustainable and Responsible Investment (SRI).
Hasil analisa ini menyatakan bahwa dalam deskripsi pekerjaannya investor relations tidak
diharuskan untuk mengkomunikasikan CSR kepada publiknya, sehingga selama ini CSR hanya
menjadi topik sisipan dalam komunikasi antara Investor relations dengan investornya. Investor
mendapat informasi CSR perusahaan melalui lembaga independen. Sehingga dari hasil analisa ini
penulis memberi rekomendasi mengenai peran IRO dalam mengkomunikasikan CSR terkait
perkembangan SRI saat ini.
