Abstract: Many academic works deal with environmental crisis in order to understand their impacts on market value and communication of firms. The literature considers in the same way the industrial accidents and the environmental crisis, without specify the characteristics of industrial accidents. The aim of this article is to propose a composite measure with five items of industrial accidents and environmental crisis. Four items are extracted from a database of the French Environmental Department. We add a fifth item to take into account the social pressure on the firms that are involved in industrial accidents. We mobilize the stakeholder's theory. The case of Total allows illustrating the relevancy of this composite measure.
