Sustainability Roadmap

Materiality Topics

In accordance with the AA1000 SES: 2015 Stakeholder Engagement Standard (SES) guidelines, SKS identified the primary stakeholders by assessing their dependency, responsibility, influence, tension, and diverse perspectives. Through daily interaction and communication with stakeholders, and referencing international sustainability norms and standards (GRI Guidelines, SASB, ISO 26000, TCFD, AA1000 Accountability Principles, SDGs), following sustainability issue surveys, feedback was gathered from seven categories of stakeholders on their concerns regarding 21 sustainability issues. After identifying and assessing their levels of concern and impact, the Company integrated these findings into its business strategy planning, incorporating senior management interviews and international trend adjustments. Further evaluations involved members of the Sustainability Development Committee, senior executives, and team members including managers, assistant managers, junior managers, and section managers. Eventually, 14 key sustainability issues spanning ESG aspects were selected and reported to the Board of Directors as part of the organization’s annual major sustainability issues. Corresponding management policies were developed according to GRI Guidelines, United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), etc., alongside setting short, medium, and long-term objectives. Progress is reviewed annually and disclosed in the Shin Kong Security ESG Report.
