Stakeholders

Our business plans, new products, development plans of the organisation and our impact on local communities and environment have been confronted with the stakeholders’ expectations. Each year, the non-financial reporting process is consulted on an ongoing basis with the selected groups of stakeholders. Engaged are mainly our employees – the team editing the contents and consulting the major issues to be reported, the Management Board, key managerial staff, and external stakeholders, such as local governments with whom we arrange the engagement of the Capital Group in order to optimally respond to the real needs of the local communities.

The stakeholders affect the Capital Group development directions. This happens by changes in legal requirements, the needs of new employee generations, or challenges posed by the care for climate issues. Processes have been constantly adjusted to the challenges faced by organisations.

We strive for introducing climate-friendly solutions, caring for the business culture and strongly emphasising human rights in the contemporary world.

Our priority is regular communication with major stakeholders. Our environmental, social and management activities are reported:

• in the Non-financial Information Statement, as part of the Report of the Management Board on the operations of the Company and the Capital Group;
• in the integrated report;
• on external websites: grupakety.com/zrównoważony rozwój and www.dziecipodbeskidzia.pl;
• on social networking portals: the Facebook account of Grupa KĘTY S.A. and the ‘Grupa Kęty for the Children of the Podbeskidzie Region’ Foundation, and the Linkedin account;
• on the dedicated Youtube channel;
• in meetings, in the Intranet, in newsletters and on notice boards/displays serving the daily contacts with the employees.

Assessed in the survey was the Integrated Report of Grupa KĘTY S.A. for the year 2022, with questions asked in the particular ESG areas. Among the aspects indicated by the respondents as the most significant were: emissions and climate change, circular economy, staff safety, staff development, social engagement of the Company, ethics, respect for human rights, and respect for environmental protection policies. The ESG Strategy of the Capital Group with regard to the assumed goals was assessed positively (E – 75%, S – 69%, G – 62%).

The table below presents the stakeholders of the Capital Group of Grupa KĘTY S.A. with regard to the cooperation potential and impact. Such approach enables us to define the major groups of stakeholders, which means those who have the greatest impact on the creation of the Capital Group business value and focus on the key issues raised by them.
