Prysmian Group Overview

Prysmian Group – 12 – OPEN, TRANSPARENT DIALOGUE FOR LONG-TERM VALUE Ongoing dialogue with stakeholders - shareholders, employees, clients, suppliers, institutions, and the communities in which the Company operates - is a pillar of Prysmian Group’s sustainability strategy. As a public company, Prysmian Group has always based its communication policy on the highest levels of integrity, clarity and transparency to ensure constant opportunities for interaction with internal and external stakeholders. In fact, dialogue is indispensable to understanding their needs, interests and expectations, anticipating changes and emerging trends, thus permitting the Group to continue with its sustainable development goals and create shared, constant value over the long term . Communication with stakeholders is also aimed at ensuring better management of the Company’s risks and reputation; at informing, raising awareness amongst and engaging all the Company’s stakeholders on the various significant issues for both the Group and the communities in which it operates; and at bringing to light the needs, critical issues and expectations of stakeholders in order to integrate them into the company strategy. The stakeholder engagement activities undertaken by the Group in 2019 included several specific initiatives relating to sustainability issues, and in particular: Working to be Sustainable. Together!: a multi-stakeholder event that involved approximately 70 participants from all over Europe, which, in addition to being called upon to vote on the Group’s significant issues, discussed the risks, opportunities and actions relating to four fundamental areas for the Company: the environment, ethics and integrity, social responsibility and innovation; Stakeholder Survey: a questionnaire addressed to over 600 external stakeholders including clients, suppliers, universities and research centres, investors and trade unions. To supplement these activities, specific internal stakeholder engagement measures were also implemented with the aim of assessing and prioritising the relevant sustainability issues for the Group. These activities, designed to survey the views of the Group’s employees, resulted in the positive engagement of approximately 400managers at the global level. In formulating and implementing its stakeholder engagement process, Prysmian Group constantly follows the guidelines of the international standard AA1000SES - most recent version updated in 2015 - developed by AccountAbility (Institute of Social and Ethical Accountability).
