This is the 7th annual Sustainability Report of MYTILINEOS Group, which is declared as “In accordance Core” for GRI (G4) Guidelines levels and as “Advanced” level Communication on Progress according to U.N. Global Compact criteria.
In preparing our 2014 Sustainability Report, we have voluntarily aligned our performance with international standards principles and guidelines such as:
- The GRI Sustainability Reporting guidelines, based on the Mining & Metals Sector Supplement (March 2010).
- The seven fundamental principles of Corporate Social Responsibility, as defined by the ISO 26000 Social Responsibility International Standard.
- The OECD Guidelines to multinational enterprises on responsible business conduct.
In addition, emphasis is placed on the Materiality Issues Identification process, which determined the key contents of the Sustainability Report. In 2014, the Group adapted this process to the methodology of the new GRI-G4 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines, allowing a more effective identification of these issues, as well as the description of their impacts and the latter's boundaries, taking also into account the expectations of the Group's key Stakeholders.
As a result of the Report adjustment to GRI G4 Guidelines, several indicators have changed in terms of the provided information. Also, the MYTILINEOS Group Corporate Responsibility Framework is available, for the first time, as it was formed gradually but steadily in recent years, while the outcomes of Stakeholders Engagement annual procedure, as a dominant practice of our CSR implementation, are presented in details.
