Sustainability Report 2017 Key processes

Materiality analysis

Through our materiality process and stakeholder engagement, we identify the most relevant topics to Electrolux. Our materiality analysis has resulted in our sustainability approach For the Better.

Our sustainability approach is designed to address the topics of greatest importance to Electrolux and our stakeholders. These topics are expressed as nine Promises, supported by 2020 goals and key performance indicators (KPIs).The relevance of an issue is determined by three criteria:

  • The relevance of each materiality issue is determined by three criteria

  • The degree of impact caused by our activities throughout the value chain
  • How much the issue impacts our business strategy
  • How the issue might affect stakeholder relationships with Electrolux

Our most important stakeholders are customers, consumers, shareholders and employees. Their priorities and how they reflect our sustainability approach are outlined in the ‘Stakeholders inform our approach’ section.

The correlation between the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Electrolux sustainability framework shows that the Group’s materiality analysis reflects societal priorities.
