‘Data privacy and security’, ‘occupational health, safety and wellbeing’ and ‘human rights and modern slavery’ rated highly in the materiality assessment. However, our robust existing policies and procedures have driven consistent performance across these areas. We have disclosed performance against these topics within our report. Conversely, ‘carbon emissions’, ‘waste management’ and ‘supporting communities’ ranked lower, but are strategic priorities for our business, requiring ambitious action through our ESG strategy. Our priority topics were reviewed and approved by our Board of Management and Executive Board. The framework of our ESG strategy demonstrates the culmination of our ESG ambitions and sets the stage for the remainder of this report. Our commitment to our colleagues, customers, communities and the environment is unwavering and gives direction to everything we do. We are proud of our strategy. It represents who we are as a business and our ambition to make positive change in the areas that matter most.
