Dialog to meet increased sustainability requirements
Being responsive to the expectations of stakeholders and the world around us is vital if we are to continue to develop and improve Alligo’s operations and sustainability work. The Group’s most important stakeholders are customers, suppliers, employees, shareholders, investors, society and authorities.
Alligo’s stakeholder analysis 2023
Alligo engages with our stakeholders in a variety of ways and forums. Through this dialogue, we identify the issues that stakeholders consider most important for Alligo to work on.
The stakeholder dialogue is validated annually and is an important part of determining which sustainability issues are most material to the business.
