Materiality Analysis

We follow the GRI Standards to establish a systematic materiality analysis method. Through a three-stage process, i.e., identification and selection, deciding priority, and confirmation and review, we identify our own material sustainability topics, and set long-term sustainability goals in response to these topics.

STEP01 Identification and selection

Identification of 7 major categories of stakeholders

We adopted the AA 1000 Stakeholder Engagement Standard (SES), and held the CSR consultation meetings to identify seven major categories of stakeholders, including: employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers, the government, communities, and the media. In addition, we gathered and analyzed the concerned issues and identified the communication channels to include the stakeholders' concerns into the daily work and annual plans of our corporate social responsibility.

Selection of 20 ESG topics

To display the complete sustainability context, we gathered 20 ESG topics through various channels, including: communication processes of stakeholders, international guidelines/regulations/trends (GRI Standards, SBSC, SDGs), industry-specific topics (RBA, SASB), sustainable investment evaluations (DJSI, CDP, MSCI Sustainability Indexes, FTSE4GOOD Emerging Index), and internal goals of organizations.

STEP02 Deciding priority

Distribution of 775 questionnaires to investigate level of concern

In addition to the interactions with stakeholders through daily operation, before publishing the report, we conducted questionnaires among the identified seven major categories of stakeholders. At last, we collected a total of 775 valid questionnaires, analyzing the topics concerning each category of stakeholders.

Collection of 27 questionnaires to weigh impact on operations

While information was being disclosed, the impact of each ESG topic on the organizational operation should be considered. We incorporated five major factors, including revenue, customer satisfaction, cohesion of employees, brand image, and cost, into our consideration, and asked our management team and employees to help evaluate the impact that each topic might have on the operation. At last, we collected a total of 27 questionnaires and analyzed the key topics under different operational factors.

STEP03 Confirmation and review

Confirmation of 15 material themes

Based on the analysis results in the Stage 2, we understood the distribution of sustainability topics in the materiality matrix. Our management team discussed these topics and finally decided 15 material topics, completing the Nanya materiality matrix of 2021. The following procedure was to further decide the boundary of information disclosure and the planning of management policies.

Corresponding to 18 GRI topics
2 specific topics of Nanya

According to the 15 material topics, our employees internally decided the stages that each topic might have significant impact on within the Nanya's value chain. These 15 material topics corresponded to the 18 topics in the GRI Standards and two specific topics belonging to Nanya, making a total of 20 main themes to be the basis for report compilation.
