pakistan tobacco company - Social reporting
Social reporting is a relatively new discipline that, put simply, is the process of listening and responding to stakeholders. We are pleased to have evolved this process for the third cycle of reporting here in Pakistan, as we have moved to an issues based dialogue.
In reaching consensus on many of the issues that surround our operations, social reporting has proven to be an effective mechanism to objectively and robustly address society's needs while embedding the idea of engagement into all areas of business.
The process provides a structured approach for us to:
- Understand more about the expectations of our stakeholders.
- Enable our stakeholders to listen to each other.
- Ensure that these expectations are given due consideration in the company's decision making.
- Demonstrate with actions that we are responsive to reasonable stakeholder expectations and concerns.
We have chosen to follow the most rigorous international standard, AA1000, set by the Institute of Social and Ethical Accountability. In addition, in order to ensure full compliance with AA1000 and verify the entire reporting process, we have selected Bureau Veritas Quality International as our social and ethical auditor.
