Central to these efforts is corporate citizenship in the demographic field, which underscores the importance of government support for businesses engaged in solving regional issues. This study examines how official government publications from the Northwestern, Ural, and Siberian Federal Okrugs provide information support to commercial organizations. The findings reveal that official sources rarely publish content using ECG indicators. Coverage of external activities focused on attracting potential employees is twenty times more frequent than coverage of internal company events. Increased media attention reflects the intensified efforts of regional authorities to engage businesses in addressing social challenges, along with improved collaboration between government and industry. Executive authorities actively promote enterprises that address demographic issues, with Altai Krai, Kemerovo Oblast, and Novosibirsk Oblast being the top-performing regions in the Siberian Federal Okrug in terms of ECG indicators. Overall, information support plays a crucial role in fostering socially responsible business practices and holds significant potential to enhance human capital across Russia’s regions.</p></abstract><abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>При решении вопросов сбережения населения и развития человеческого капитала в Российской Федерации возрос интерес государства, бизнеса и общества к поиску совместных эффективных инструментов, направленных на достижение глобальных общественно значимых целей. В плоскости поиска таких инструментов лежит развитие в России корпоративной гражданственности в сфере демографии, что определяет необходимость поддержки предприятий, активно участвующих в решении проблем региона, со стороны органов власти. В данной работе анализируется информационная поддержка коммерческих организаций, соответствующих позиции корпоративной гражданственности в демографической сфере. Метод исследования — контент-анализ публикаций на официальных страницах ответственных за реализацию демографической политики и экономическое развитие в регионе органов исполнительной власти субъектов РФ Северо-Западного, Уральского и Сибирского федеральных округов; корреляционный анализ публикационной активности органов власти и социально-экономических показателей регионов. Определено, что на официальных страницах органов власти практически не публикуются записи о деятельности предприятий в соответствии с показателями ЭКГ-рейтинга. Внешняя некоммерческая деятельность бизнеса, связанная с потенциальным привлечением сотрудников, освещается в 20 раз чаще внутренних мероприятий. Отмечается увеличение интереса региональной власти к участию бизнеса в решении социальных и демографических вопросов; частота публикаций с упоминанием социально ответственных организаций обусловлена выстроенным взаимодействием между властью и бизнесом. Чаще в продвижении предприятий, которые вносят вклад в решение демографических проблем, участвуют органы исполнительной власти субъекта РФ, курирующие экономическое развитие региона. Лидирующие позиции по продвижению деятельности компаний в соответствии с показателями ЭКГ-рейтинга занимают субъекты Сибирского федерального округа: Алтайский край, Кемеровская область, Новосибирская область. Информационная поддержка может оказывать благоприятное влияние на развитие социально ответственного бизнеса и имеет потенциал для наращивания человеческого капитала в регионе.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>corporate demographic policy</kwd><kwd>corporate citizenship</kwd><kwd>ECG rating</kwd><kwd>state publics</kwd><kwd>public administration</kwd><kwd>content analysis</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>корпоративная демографическая политика</kwd><kwd>корпоративная гражданственность</kwd><kwd>ЭКГ-рейтинг</kwd><kwd>публичное управление</kwd><kwd>контент-анализ</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body/><back><ack xml:lang="en"><p>: This work is supported by the grant of the Russian Science Foundation, project № 24-18-00854, https://rscf.ru/project/24-18-00854/.</p></ack><ack xml:lang="ru"><p>Исследование выполнено за счет гранта Российского научного фонда № 24-18-00854, https://rscf.ru/project/24-18-00854/.</p></ack><ref-list><ref id="ref1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Ананкин, С.
