IDENTIFY AND MAP STAKEHOLDERS 4.1

The materiality analysis was preceded by a reconsideration of stakeholder mapping methods for the purpose of clearer communication.

Stakeholder refers to individuals / groups / institutions that influence or are influenced by an organisation and its activities.

In the last edition of the Sustainability Report, Gruppo Mastrotto had identified and mapped its stakeholders according to a double criterion:

Influence

ability of the stakeholder to influence the achievement of the objectives of Gruppo Mastrotto.

Dependency

degree of dependence of the stakeholder on Gruppo Mastrotto in achieving its objectives.

A useful map had emerged to direct the attention and strategic choices of Gruppo Mastrotto in order to favour the achievement of company objectives, in compliance with the expectations and rights of significantly influenced stakeholders.

In this edition of the Sustainability Report, in view of greater consistency with the new GRI Universal Standards that focus on the economic, environmental and social impacts of a company, a more immediate representation was preferred that highlights the stakeholders that can be impacted by the company’s activity.

The representation is illustrated below:

Non-Governmental Organisations

Financial Institutions

Shareholders

Customers

Suppliers

Public Administration Industry Associations our stakeholders

Employees and their Families

Manager of Water Service and Purification

Educational System

Local Community Research/Training Bodies
