Stakeholder Identification
MERRY maintains effective communication with stakeholders through practical and stable methods during its operations and participates in various public associations to be a sustainable partner and corporate citizen. The company website features an external communication mailbox to establish transparent and diverse communication channels with all stakeholders. To identify key stakeholders significantly related to operations, the Sustainable Development Promotion Team uses the AA1000 Stakeholder Engagement Standard (AA1000 SES) developed by Accountability, focusing on dependency, influence, interest, responsibility, and diverse perspectives. In 2023, MERRY distributed questionnaires to company executives and received 30 valid responses, identifying 9 main stakeholder categories and 5 key stakeholder groups: investors, employees, suppliers, customers, and government agencies. Corresponding and effective communication channels and platforms are established based on the attributes and needs of each stakeholder group. The results of stakeholder engagement and major issue impact assessments are reviewed by the president and reported to the board along with the sustainability report.
