Rules and processes. Reaching the goal systematically The development of a sustainability organisation at Schöck is in full swing. In 2022, a sustainability strategy that is compatible with the corporate strategy was developed on the basis of analyses, interviews, workshops and questionnaires. In addition to the development of the actual sustainability aspects, proposals for a mission statement, communication and organisation were also derived. The concept was further refined during the year in line with the requirements of the Executive Board. A basis for this already exists and will be further expanded and documented in 2023 to serve as a prerequisite for effective sustainability management. All departments involved will be given time to align their own area with the new requirements and to define suitable measures. Schöck's sustainability manager is in close contact with the specialist departments in order to evaluate the practicability of the sustainability strategy. He meets regularly with the Executive Board and reports on the implementation of the sustainability strategy in the company. From 2024, the Schöck Executive Board will define the focus topics and objectives of the sustainability strategy once a year. The division managers, plant managers, heads of the specialist departments and the sustainability manager will provide the Executive Board with advice and support. The departments are given a great scope for action in the choice of measures. Every six months, an interim status is determined and presented to the Executive Board so that adjustments can be made in good time. At the end of the year, the sustainability manager reports to the Executive Board on the status of implementation, development of the performance indicators and the degree of target fulfilment in the departments involved. The internal and external sustainability communication is already being implemented through the marketing today. Reports on successfully implemented sustainability measures are continuously provided during the year. After the end of a reporting period, the marketing prepares and publishes a sustainability report. 38 Company Sustainability management Fields of activity GRI content index
