Reporting

With its sustainability report, the MCH Group wishes to strengthen its dialogue with its key stakeholder groups, since the latter have a decisive influence on the company's economic, ecological and social performance and are also affected by it.

In defining the contents of the report, the MCH Group proceeds as follows:

  • 1. Definition of the aspects: In preparing the report, the aspects to be covered are determined in consultation with representatives of the internal and external stakeholder groups. The focus here is on the relevance of the aspects for the stakeholder groups.
  • 2. Prioritisation: Key criteria adopted in the prioritisation of topics are the significance of their economic, ecological and social impacts both inside and outside the company and their influence on the assessments and decisions of the stakeholders.
  • 3. Validation: The inputs of the stakeholder groups are taken into account for defining and implementing the report content. The Executive Board and the Board of Directors of MCH Group Ltd. approve the sustainability report prior to its publication in each case.
  • 4. Review: After publication of the report, the content is reviewed together with the stakeholder groups involved, and the results of the review are channelled into the preparations for the next report.

Since the stakeholder groups are not only interested in the company’s economic performance but also have a particular interest in energy consumption and emissions reporting, as well as in the details of company management (corporate governance, code of conduct, compliance), corresponding weight is given to these aspects in the 2017 sustainability report.
