Materiality Identification Process

To identify materiality, we used the three steps listed below. We did so mainly through workshops held by the Corporate Sustainability Division, which works together with each of the Company’s departments, as well as through a review of documentation and interviews with outside experts. We considered a wide range of perspectives, including analysis of stakeholder interests and impacts on our Group.
