C-S1 | Stakeholder engagement |
|
PPC Group recognizes as stakeholders the entities or individuals that influence and are influenced, directly or indirectly, by its business activity. Its main objective is to create stable channels of communication in order to enhance continuous and seamless communication with each of the stakeholder categories. The Group interacts daily with a wide range of social groups due to its multi-level business activity, resulting in different ways of communication. Specifically, distinct channels have been established for each category of stakeholders, with the frequency of each communication depending on the type of relationship the Group has developed with each group. The result of this systematic effort is the establishment of a constructive cooperation with all stakeholders, which forms the basis for the evaluation and planning of the Group's activity, with the main tool being two-way dialogue and respect for the concerns and needs of each individual group. It is worth noting that in the context of the double materiality assessment carried out by the Group, stakeholders were invited to participate in the survey to assess the impact on sustainable development issues at the level of the parent company (PPC S.A.) and its subsidiaries (HEDNO, PPC Renewables), with the results of the survey contributing to the definition of the Group's material issues. More information on stakeholder engagement can be found in the Sustainable Development Report 2020 on the company's website. |
