Materiality Determination Process

Under conceptual development of the Report 2016, the materiality analysis was carried out in November 2016 in accordance with new GRI Standards, including GRI principles. Representatives of the Company and its key stakeholders were invited to evaluate both the GRI and TVEL Fuel Company-specific topics, which complies with GRI Standards recommendations. Materiality matrix was prepared based on the survey result. When developing the concept of the Report for 2018, the stakeholders were asked to confirm the relevance of the material aspects selected in 2016, or propose changes. As a result of this questionnaire, the matrix of significant aspects did not change.

The matrix has been prepared in axes of “The significance of the Company’s impact on economics, environment and society” (average assessment made by managers of the Fuel Company, who took part in survey) and “Influence on stakeholder assessments and decisions” (external stakeholders’ assessments). The most essential issues are highlighted in dark blue.
