ESRS S3 Affected communities

We are conscious of our corporate responsibility and accord great significance to the impacts of our business activities on affected communities – both in our own operations and those in our value chain. Affected communities are among the relevant stakeholders for thyssenkrupp and include neighbors, local communities and indigenous peoples. By way of forward-looking risk management and consistent sustainable practices, we minimize potential negative impacts on affected communities and establish the basis for a trust-based and long-term relationship with them.

The broadly defined term of stakeholders and their perspectives are explained in the section headed “ESRS 2 General disclosures.”
