such as GRI guidelines, ISO26000, SDG's, and corporative surveys. Social issues in the business segments arealso extracted. These processes include the results of the communication with stakeholders through the dialog
with external experts, regional exchange meetings, survey results to the report, and others. Additionally,various stakeholders are considered and involved in the process. The extracted issues are input into themateriality identified process. The ESG division consists of staff members whose skills are ensured as a resultof substantial training and experience. SGS Japan Inc. confirmed the above processes through the assurance.
Materiality

business activities, and materiality assessment is conducted through various assessment processes identifying
business management and social issues’ solution. Identified issues are reflected in the Sustainable Value Plan(SVP)2030 depending on the materiality and certainty.

ResponsivenessThe organization has disclosed a series of process to identify the issues and the corresponding status to theidentified issues through various media such as sustainability report and website.
The organization implements two-way communications with stakeholders. The results from the communications
are considered as the input information to identify the issues. The disclosed information is not only limited to thatwhich is highly important for the organizations, but also includes a wide range of information that is disclosed byconsidering the GRI standards or corporative surveys. Since 2019, the Sustainability Report has been edited
separately into two editions, “Management Performance” and “SVP Stories” to provide relevant informationaccording to the needs of the stakeholders.
Efforts to use the unified indexes for information disclosure to as great a degree as possible are made. As aresult, there is a certain amount of undisclosed information due to the difficulties in unifying the indexes in theglobal company with various business segments and organizational scale. The relevant divisions monitor
progress toward target achievement of the issues reflected in the medium-term CSR plan under their own
responsibility.As an example of addressing the issues, we confirmed to promote waste reduction and recycling
thorough the advanced waste sorting process . SGS Japan Inc. confirmed the above processes through theassurance.

detailed case examples. This report also includes the impact on the environmental and social. Among thesustainability performances identified as verification targets, VOC emissions and social data (excluding data ofdisabilities and work accident) have not been disclosed regarding their impact on the ecosystem and social, so
there is room for improvement in future disclosures. Consequently, SGS Japan Inc. confirmed through theverification that the Organization supports the principle of impact.
