Abstract: Abstract This study aims to analyze the effect of tax avoidance on ESG performance, with a specific focus on the role of women on boards. We investigate whether the presence of women on boards mediates the relationship between tax avoidance and ESG performance in mining companies listed on IDX from 2019 to 2021. Annual reports and the ESGI database are the sources of data. Path analysis is used as a tool to test the existing hypotheses. The results indicate that the existence of females on boards has a negative effect on ESG performance. This result indicates that the ESG performance of the company declines as the proportion of females on the board of directors increases, and vice versa. Concurrently, tax avoidance does not influence the ESG performance of mining companies.
