Materiality: identifying what is important
To identify the most important aspects of sustainability, for both the Group and our stakeholders, we conducted a materiality assessment. This process was undertaken following AccountAbility’s AA1000 SES standard in accordance with the following phases:
1. Identification
To determine the areas of greatest general interest, the relevant issues were identified through a sectoral benchmarking study.2. Prioritisation
The material aspects were selected from a double analysis (internal and external) which allowed us to identify the degree of importance both for us and for our stakeholders.3. Validation
The results were validated directly with the project managers.STAKEHOLDERS
