Stakeholder Identification
Stakeholders influence Sesoda itself or groups affected by Sesoda, in order to communicate with stakeholders in a timely manner, control the sustainability issues that stakeholders care about us, and integrate them into Sesoda's sustainable development strategy, and establish a smooth relationship with stakeholders. We use an open and transparent attitude to communicate with stakeholders in accordance with the GRI Standards of Sustainable Reporting. The process includes exposing the types of major stakeholders, communication channels, and information about major stakeholders.
First of all, Sesoda convened the CSR meeting of the year to identify the main stakeholders and list the sustainability issues that the main stakeholders are concerned about, based on this as a reference basis for the disclosure of the report.
