Linking our Material Topics to the United Nation Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Based on the key sustainability topics of our materiality matrix, we have determined that the 8 (SDGs) we had identified
last year were still relevant and corresponds most to our present-day businesses; and where the Group can make positive
contributions to their realization. Inter alia, we contribute towards the achievement of the SDGs through:
• our direct business activities – the products we produce and the way we produce them;
• the use by host governments of the taxes we pay;
• the creation of economic and social value in the communities where we operate by creating local jobs, supporting local
supplier development and providing opportunities through training and other investments; and
• the efforts undertaken to reduce our environmental footprint.
