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 the 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
MYTILINEOS Group, which began more than 20
years ago and which for 2012 was certified for
yet another year by the Global Reporting Initiative
(GRI), the international CSR assessment organi-
zation, for
compliance with its Level B GRI-G3,
requirements
.
It is indicative that during 2013, despite the ad-
verse domestic environment, MYTILINEOS Group
generated a
“social product” with a total value
of €211 million
, comprising of investments, em-
ployee benefits, dividends, sponsorships and pay-
ment 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 activi-
ties are based. During 2013, such Open Dialogue
Forums were organized with high attendance lev-
els for the fourth year running by METKA S.A. and
ALUMINIUM S.A., and for the third year by PRO-
TERGIA S.A.
Finally, in
2013 MYTILINEOS Group participated
in Bloomberg’s global Environment, Society and
Governance (ESG) data service
, which covers
companies reporting on their Environment, So-
ciety and Governance performance, where it was
ranked
No 1 for its overall performance among
all Greek companies included and No 9 globally.
