JCN Newswire (English)
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today issued the "Honda SUSTAINABILITY
REPORT 2017" (Sustainability Report) summarizing Honda's approach
to sustainability as well as initiatives Honda has undertaken based
on key challenges identified in non-financial areas.
In this year's Sustainability Report, Honda placed the 2030 Vision
and the materiality matrix as the first two contents of the
Sustainability Management section that immediately follows the Top
Message. With this order of contents, Honda is expressing its
determination to fulfill its 2030 Vision and strongly work toward
solving key issues under the leadership of its top executive.
The 2030 Vision represents Honda's vision to continue growing
together with society in a sustainable manner. Toward the
fulfillment of the 2030 Vision, Honda will strive to transform and
advance the value of its existing businesses in the midst of the
rapid change happening to the business environment so that Honda
can continue contributing toward solving various societal issues.
In addition, Honda will strive to create unprecedented value in not
only its existing fields, but also new fields and provide such new
value to society.
The materiality matrix is a two-dimensional framework that
visualizes areas Honda needs to focus on from two perspectives,
namely the importance to stakeholders and importance to Honda. By
developing and utilizing a materiality matrix based on the 2030
Vision, all potential issues were considered and covered. The key
issues identified will be reflected in company-wide strategies and
incorporated into business activities. With that, Honda strives to
fulfill the 2030 Vision.
As with last year, striving to further increase the quality and
quantity of the information it discloses, Honda prepared this
year's Sustainability Report in accordance with the "Comprehensive"
option of the GRI(1) (Global Reporting Initiative) G4
Sustainability Reporting Guidelines.
The G4 Guidelines also define the GRI Content Index, which is a
reporting template that offers a quick overview of reported
sustainability information. GRI verified that the GRI Content Index
of the Honda SUSTAINABLE REPORT 2017 is accurate.
Through its Sustainability Report, Honda will continue reporting to
its stakeholders about how the corporate activities of the Honda
Group are connected to society in various ways. Moreover, Honda
will incorporate stakeholder feedback to Honda's
sustainability-focused management for the future to increase its
corporate value and to better contribute to the realization of a
sustainable society. With that, Honda will strive to be a company
society wants to exist.
(1) GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) is a global institution and a
collaborating center of UNEP (United Nations Environment
Programme), that develops globally applicable guidelines for
sustainability reporting.
