CSR Governance Structures in MYTILINEOS Group
The CSR Governance System of MYTILINEOS Group consists of the CSR Committee, which functions at the level of the Group's Board of Directors, and of the
CSR Teams established in the individual Group Companies, whose duties were presented in detail in the Sustainability Report 2010. In parallel, the Group’s
Professional Ethics Code plays an important part in ensuring the commitment of the Group and of its subsidiaries to the requirements of Responsible Corporate
Citizenship. The Code covers the rules of acceptable conduct regarding the Management’s conduct towards its employees and the rules that govern the conduct
of employees between themselves and towards third parties, especially towards the Stakeholder groups.

Each Group company, using as starting point the guidelines of the Corporate Centre, functions
independently and approaches CSR through the particular economic, environmental and social
characteristics of its specific business activity sector and local community. The CSR Committee focuses
on checking the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) of the core CSR areas in order to measure the
corresponding progress made.
