Stakeholder engagement
We value our stakeholders’ opinions and feedback. Stakeholder engagement is fundamental to determining our direction, and identifying impacts and associated prevention and mitigation plans, not only as a business but also as a global corporate citizen. Some of our stakeholder categories are employees, customers, suppliers, local communities, regulators/ legislators, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). We regularly seek feedback from our stakeholders. This collaboration is key to making informed and meaningful business decisions. There are varying forms and frequency of engagement, Some examples are: biannual employee surveys, employee forums, customer face to face meetings, trade shows, technical support center calls, Analyst and press feedback, conference participation, partnerships, market research assessments, government and regulatory standards and briefings and global industry group and trade association participation.
