GUIDING PRINCIPLES
BEHIND THE
SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
This Social Responsibility and Sustainability Report
2018 provides reliable and balanced information
on PRISA’s endeavors to meet the challenges
raised by social responsibility.
In keeping with the guidelines as set out by the
Global Reporting InitiativeTM, the contents of this
report reflect the following principles:
MATERIALITY
The information should cover aspects that reflect
the Group’s significant social, environmental and
economic impacts, or those that would substantively
influence the assessments and decisions
of stakeholders.
STAKEHOLDER INCLUSIVENESS
Stakeholders are entities or individuals that can reasonably
be expected to identify or be linked with
PRISA’s activities. The company should endeavor to
satisfy the demands and concerns of these groups
through the improvement and maintenance of the
quality of its products and activities. The reasonable
expectations and interests of stakeholders are
a basic point of reference for many of the decisions
taken when drafting this report. (For further information,
see Chapter 4, Sustainability at PRISA: Dialogue
and communication with our stakeholders).
SUSTAINABILITY CONTEXT
The report should present the organization’s performance
in the wider context of sustainability, and
reflect how it contributes via its actions to matters
of an environmental, social and economic nature.
COMPLETENESS
The Report’s coverage of the material topics and
Indicators and the definition of the report boundary
should be sufficient to reflect significant economic,
environmental, and social impacts over the course
of 2017.
BALANCE
The Report should reflect both positive and negative
aspects of organizational performance in order
to provide an informed assessment of overall
performance.
COMPARABILITY
The information is presented in such a way so that
the stakeholders can analyze the evolution of organizational
performance, and can do so with respect
to other organizations.
ACCURACY
The report should present information on management
approach, and on economic, environmental,
and social indicators in a way that is sufficiently
accurate and detailed so that stakeholders may
assess organizational performance.
TIMELINESS
This report provides continuity to those presented
in previous years.
CLARITY
The report should present information in a way that
is sufficiently understandable by the organization’s
range of stakeholders so that these may access
information and adequately comprehend it.
RELIABILITY
For this Sustainability Report, the organization has
gathered, analyzed and disclosed information and
processes used in the preparation of the report in
a way that they can be subject to examination and
that establishes the quality and materiality of the
information.
