The parameters of our 2018 Corporate |
Sustainability Report have been established |
based on a strategic assessment of the |
issues that our stakeholders care most |
about, are of greatest relevance to our |
business strategy and align with our |
purpose to make the world cleaner, safer |
and healthier. This approach to materiality |
aligns with our corporate sustainability |
strategy to address some of the world’s |
most pressing and complex challenges |
through our own operations and the |
solutions that we provide to customers. |
For more information on our approach |
to sustainability and materiality |
assessment, please refer to pages 11–16 |
in our 2018 GRI Index. |
