  • Provide a detailed description of the methodologies and assumptions applied in the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks, and opportunities as per Disclosure Requirement IRO-1.
  • Question Id: IRO-1_01

    We developed our double materiality assessment (DMA) methodology and process steps based on the 'IG1: Materiality Assessment Implementation Guidance' published by EFRAG in May 2024. In addition, we developed scoring tools to operationalise the parameters and criteria set out and to document the process steps, including rationales and supporting documentation for our scoring assessments. We have considered all the sub-sub-topics listed in ESRS 1 when identifying our impacts, risks, and opportunities (IROs). For impacts on people and the environment (inside-out), we considered both positive and negative impacts related to sustainability matters, which can be both actual and potential. In our financial assessment (outside-in), we assessed potential sustainability-related risks that could trigger a negative financial effect on our business and opportunities that could benefit our business positively. We considered activities within our own operations as well as from our business relationships and value chain. Our value chain assessment mainly focused on our first-tier suppliers, and beyond that, we relied on industry-wide value chain assessments, industry knowledge, and internal knowledge based on our engagement in various forums. We had particular focus on the upstream value chain focusing on sourcing of materials and exposure to certain geographies that might give rise to a heightened risk of adverse human and labour rights and of environmental impacts due to the nature of our industry.
