Betrokkenheid van belanghebbenden
Samenwerken, luisteren en toonaangevend zijn met onze belanghebbenden
Onze wereldwijde ESG-doelen in het verleden, het heden en de toekomst zijn en blijven gebaseerd op de input van onze belanghebbenden, zodat we weten wat echt belangrijk is voor ons bedrijf. We spelen kort op de bal om verder te gaan op onze weg naar een duurzamere toekomst en om waarde te kunnen bieden aan iedereen die bij ons betrokken is. Deze inspanningen hebben geleid tot onze aanpak om financiën en duurzaamheid met elkaar te verweven, een proces waarbij we belangrijke onderwerpen bepalen en prioriteren op basis van de impact, risico's en kansen voor ons bedrijf.
De onderstaande belanghebbende partijen zijn groepen die belangrijk zijn voor ESG-processen en die mogelijk worden beïnvloed door onze verplichtingen en ontwikkelingen in duurzaamheid.
Onze inspanningen om onze belanghebbenden te betrekken en onze aanpak om financiën en duurzaamheid met elkaar te verweven blijven onze koers bepalen, binnen onze bestaande doelen, terwijl we ons bewust blijven van veranderende aandachtspunten voor ons bedrijf en onze belanghebbenden. In de loop van ons traject zullen we nog meer inzetten op de betrokkenheid van onze belanghebbenden en hun input meenemen in onze toekomstige verweven aanpak van financiën en duurzaamheid, zodat we ook in de toekomst aandacht kunnen blijven geven aan onze waardeketen.
A few of the ways we have engaged with key stakeholders on ESG issues:
Customers
Understanding the material issues to our customers is key to building an ESG program that helps meet their sustainability needs. We are listening to and anticipating our customers’ needs by sharing Scope 3 emissions to aid supply chain transparency and introducing more sustainable products and services.
Examples of engagement:
- Customer-focused technical expertise
- Passive research, including surveys and desktop research
- Ongoing customer ESG collaborative efforts
- Active key account surveys on sustainability priorities

Suppliers
As an extension of our suppliers’ sales force, it is vital that we understand the sustainability characteristics of the materials we distribute as we develop a leading industry position in sustainable solutions. We work closely with suppliers and service providers to understand their own sustainability journey and, when appropriate, bring them onto our journey.
Examples of engagement:
- Passive research on supplier sustainability priorities
- Supplier transparency and sustainability collaboration, such as responses to sustainability questionnaires and assessment platforms

Employees
Our people are at the heart of our sustainability success. Our priorities are largely reflective of the issues our employees care about most and demonstrate that we are an organization where people matter. Additionally, our employees drive the key projects and programs that deliver ESG value for our business and stakeholders.

Our proactive investor engagement helps to address priorities on the horizon, such as the management of climate-related risks and DEI-related disclosures.
Examples of engagement:
- Proactive engagement with our top shareholders
- Support of shareholder sustainability priorities
- Assessment of key investor ESG platforms for priorities
- Reports and disclosures in line with key investor feedback
Univar Solutions Executive Leadership and Board
The strong two-way engagement between the Executive Committee and the Board on our ESG priorities and progress is central to generating and maintaining the momentum needed to drive the significant change needed to achieve our ambitious ESG goals.
Examples of engagement:

- Long-term executive compensation that is tied to the achievement of certain ESG goals

Industrial Associations
Teams across our business are actively participating in councils, steering groups and other decision-making bodies within industry associations, helping to keep us up to date with the latest industry developments. This participation helps us to advance ESG changes in our industry.
