SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
The sustainability report collects the strategies, objectives, initiatives and projects, as well as the quantitative performance of our sustainable action.
During 2021 we wanted to strengthen our commitment by creating a single ESG framework, capable of generating long-term shared value for all our stakeholders.
The evolution of Reporting
We have been providing reports on our commitment to sustainability since 2009 and have adopted the standards developed by the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative), the most widespread in the world, since 2014. Our sustainability report is submitted to a limited review, which is an audit conducted by an independent third party.
Starting with the 2019 Financial Statements, we have developed a model based on 4 strategic pillars - consumers, people, communities, and the planet - and we have integrated it with the Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs, of the UN 2030 Agenda.
Consumer
The cornerstone of our sustainability is the promotion of a culture of gambling as a fun activity far removed from any excesses.
This commitment takes the form of a Responsible Gambling programme certified according to the highest international standards (EL and WLA) and which takes the form of a plan of information, prevention, education and assistance initiatives. Our goal is to educate and inform consumers, but above all to prevent problem gambling behaviour and support vulnerable gamers.
By setting our new purpose, we have reviewed the strategic activities related to this crucial issue with a structured programme that integrates with all business areas and all channels so as to promote a sustainable business model based on the involvement of the entire internal structure, on training at the points of sale, on information to gamers and on their involvement.
People
People are the heart of the company’s key resources for the evolution of Sisal on a forward-looking basis in the international context in which we operate.
At Sisal, we support our colleagues in achieving their goals and we continue to promote an inclusive work environment and cultivate a culture of diversity and gender equality.
We constantly invest in our people’s professional growth, skills development and welfare. We are also committed to promoting talent, self-learning and employability, in addition to a correct balance between work and private life.
Community
We are committed to constantly and continuously engaging with the community, to support and promote innovation, sharing and social integration. Our commitment to local communities is perfectly in line with the goal of generating widespread well-being for all stakeholders and at the same time ensuring sustainable long-term growth.
Thanks to a new investment approach in communities, we are committed to defining a model capable of adapting to contingent needs every year.
The action plan promoted concerns two key areas: social solidarity, with projects such as Will and fundraising, and innovation and talent, with project GoBeyond.
Planet
At Sisal, we believe that everyone is called to play their part in preserving the natural ecosystem and building a sustainable future.
We promote behaviour inspired by a correct and balanced resource management among our colleagues and suppliers and we constantly monitor and improve processes and products by developing energy-saving initiatives, reducing emissions and pollution and minimizing the use of paper.
Sisal’s commitment to the environment is embodied in the sustainability of processes and structures. Within the working environment, we adopt solutions and strategies that aim to use renewable energy, develop sustainable mobility and reduce consumption and waste.
