2 DEFINITIONS, TERMINOLOGY AND ACRONYMS
For the purposes of the current Policy on the subject, the company means by:
Good Governance: the system by which companies and other organizations are directed, monitored, and encouraged, involving relationships among shareholders, the board of directors,
executive management, oversight and control bodies, and other stakeholders.
Value Chain: the set of activities carried out by an organization, from its relationships with suppliers, through the production and sales stages, to final distribution.
Engagement: dialogue between the company and one or more stakeholders, which may take place in various ways and take different forms. It always seeks interaction and aims to provide a opportunity for stakeholders’ views to be heard, with two-way communication being its defining characteristic.
Stakeholders: organizations and/or individuals that have one or more interests in the company or that are or may be affected by any of its decisions or activities. And that, therefore, have a relationship with the company, whether formal or informal, regardless of whether they are aware of such relationship.
Socio-Environmental Risks: occurrences inherent to the Company’s activities that cause undesirable impacts and need to be managed systematically by determining their likelihood of occurrence and measuring and quantifying their social, environmental, and economic impacts.
Transparency: the willingness to disclose everything that may affect the interests of stakeholders, who, when better informed, are in a better position to assess the risks assumed.
Shared Value: the premise that, for long-term business success, generating value for society is just as important as generating value for shareholders.
