Corporate Responsibility
I
n MYTILINEOS Group, our non-negotiable com-
mitment to sustainable development translates
into decisions and actions that contribute to the
efforts to strengthen the Greek economy, support
the Greek society, protect the environment and
promote best business practices in the work en-
vironment.
The Group remains steadfast in its pledge to up-
hold the ethics and the principles that guarantee
its unbroken alliance with Society, with its Employ-
ees and with the Environment, especially so in the
adverse economic juncture that country is facing,
which makes the contribution of businesses as so-
cial partners all the more imperative.
This pledge strengthens even more the long and
successful contribution and active presence of MY-
TILINEOS Group, which began more than 20 years
ago and which for 2012 was certified for yet anoth-
er year by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the
international CSR assessment organisation, for
compliance with its Level B GRI-G3 requirements.
It is indicative that during 2012, despite the ad-
verse domestic environment, MYTILINEOS Group
generated a “social product” with a total value of
€233 million, comprising investments, employee
benefits, dividends, sponsorships and payment of
taxes.
At the same time, and in line with its commitment
to transparency, the Group has been one of the
very few Greek businesses to hold annual “open
dialogue” forums with their stakeholders, held in
the local communities where the Group’s activities
are based. During 2012, such Open Dialogue Fo-
rums were organised with high attendance levels
for the third year running by METKA S.A. and ALU-
MINIUM S.A., and for the second year by PROTER-
GIA S.A.
Finally, in 2012 MYTILINEOS Group participated in
Bloomberg’s global Environment, Social, and Gov-
ernance (ESG) data service, which covers compa-
nies reporting on their Environment, Society and
Governance performance, and was ranked No 1 for
its overall performance among all Greek compa-
nies included.
