Sustainability Policy / Sustainability Promotion System Materiality (Important Issues)
Materiality Identification Process
In 2020, SHR has identified our materiality in accordance with the following process, with the aim of promoting more concrete initiatives for sustainability through our business activities. Even after the identification of materiality, the environment surrounding stakeholders and SHR is ever-changing. By reviewing the materiality in accordance with these trends and pursuing the sustainability of SHR in a manner that meets the demands of society, we will fulfill our responsibility toward the mutual sustainable growth of both society and SHR.
Materiality
SHR believes that sustainable growth in our business activities is built on a solid foundation of a sustainable society, and recognizes that in order to continue providing "Prime Properties", which SHR focuses on as an investment strategy, it is necessary to carry out initiatives based on the guidelines of solving issues to build a sustainable society through business activities. Based on this recognition, SHR has identified eight materialities (important issues) and set targets (KPIs) as indicators to resolve each of them. In light of the SDGs adopted by the United Nations in 2015, we will pursue mutual sustainability of both society and SHR by promoting efforts to resolve these material issues.
