Materiality
SCG reviews enterprise materiality on a yearly basis through the SCG Sustainable Development Committee, taking into consideration both internal and external impacts.
Double and Dynamic Materiality Assessment Process
Based on the GRI Standards (GRI 3: Material Topics 2021), The double-materiality concept Application and issues and Integrated Reporting Framework

Analyze megatrend and organization’s context
• Analyze significant megatrends that may impact the entire value chain.
• Review ESG issues relevant to the industry by participating in ESG assessments conducted by leading ESG raters, such as Sustainalytics, CDP, MSCI, FTSE4Good, and S&P Global CSA.
• Gather feedback and suggestions from stakeholders through various channels.
• Exchange strategic ideas and perspectives through collaboration with all sectors to drive and advance sustainability initiatives in order to achieve tangible results, such as through World Economic Forum (WEF).

Identify sustainability risks and opportunities across the value chain
Assess both the external impacts on the organization (financial materiality) and the impacts of the organization’s activities on society and the environment (impact materiality) across various dimensions in line with international frameworks, such as:
- Climate change risks, in accordance with Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

Assess the significance of the impacts
• Gather opinions and recommendations from the SCG Sustainable Development Committee to understand the impacts of material challenges across all dimensions.
• Gather recommendations on the transition to a low-carbon society to assess impacts on external stakeholders through presession panels for ESG Symposium 2024.
• Evaluate and screen material issues in the short, medium, and long term.
• Integrate assessment into the Enterprise Risk Management process to systematically establish risk and impact management measures.
• Gather opinions and recommendations from the SCG Sustainable Development Committee to understand the impacts of material challenges across all dimensions.

Determine and propose materiality
• Determine materiality for the establishment of enterprise risk management and business
strategies.
• Propose the materiality to the SCG Sustainable Development Committee for approval and integration into business strategy planning and establish both short- and long-term key performance indicators that integrate ESG achievement targets for the President & CEO and top executives.
• Disclose relevant information to stakeholders to enhance transparency and understanding.
