Sustainability at Swiss Steel Group
Sustainability is centrally embedded in our strategy and operations, and our guidelines emphasize our commitment to environmental protection, health, social responsibility, and ethical standards across our supply chain.
To align our sustainability strategy with stakeholder expectations, we conducted a materiality analysis. Sustainability topics are considered relevant if they either have significant impacts on our business success or if our economic activities have significant effects on the environment and society in relation to these topics. The materiality analysis was conducted in three steps:
- Identification of potentially relevant sustainability topics (based on reporting standards, regulations, and competitor reports).
- Stakeholder engagement (structured personal interviews with employees, customers, and suppliers).
- Analysis of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) related risks and opportunities. In identifying sustainability topics, we took a holistic approach, considering all aspects of sustainability (economic, environmental, social, and governance).
We have identified the following topics
Based on the score of each topic in the two dimensions, we distinguish three clusters.
