Complementing the materiality assessment described further above, the Company reviewed in 2022 the list of its priority sustainability risks as shown above to help prioritise its actions. This process complements, and is fully integrated into, the Company’s ERM process. It is based on contributions and inputs consolidated from a wide range of stakeholders and

resources. This includes desktop research, interviews with key internal stakeholders and verification with internal and external stakeholders. The human rights risks identified were complemented and cross-analysed with product life cycle assessments – including sectoral inputs – and the Company’s top health and safety risks.
