Materiality Analysis
Establishing Priorities
A materiality analysis defines the environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics that matter most to an organization and its key stakeholders. It helps the organization refine its sustainability framework and identify short- and long-term sustainability commitments and targets.
In 2022, Aptiv refreshed our materiality assessment to ensure that our sustainability strategy continues to align well with the ESG topics that are most important to our business and our stakeholders. This process of regular engagement provides valuable insights that are used to refine our efforts as our sustainability strategy evolves. Building on the lessons from our 2019 analysis, we leveraged input from independent experts to conduct the analysis and surveyed both internal and external stakeholders.
Our analysis follows current Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines, and we will continue to use and enhance this process regularly to evaluate our impact on the economy, environment and people. Based on the prioritization of these topics and our alignment with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, we have set targets against each of these topics, and progress is reported annually.
