ABOUT THIS REPORT

This is ASTA Brasil’s second Sustainability Report and it follows the frameworks of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) / European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).

This report also incorporates the Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics, based on the four Ps, namely:

Prosperity

Prosperity refers to the company’s financial and economic success, but also to its positive impact on both the local and global economy. This includes not only generating profit, but also creating jobs, paying taxes and investing in innovation and technology. Prosperity is essential for the company’s long-term sustainability and its ability to create value for stakeholders.

Planet

The planet is the foundation of human existence and business operations. Environmental sustainability is essential to ensure that companies operate responsibly and minimize their negative impact on the environment. This includes greenhouse gas emissions reduction, conserving natural resources, managing waste and promoting sustainable practices throughout the value chain.

People

People are at the heart of any company, and their well-being and development are key to success. This includes not only employees, but also customers, suppliers and local communities. The company must prioritize human dignity, equity and individual development by ensuring safe and healthy working conditions, opportunities for professional growth and development, as well as fair and respectful treatment.

Principles of Governance

Governance is essential to ensure that companies operate ethically and responsibly. This includes corporate governance, transparency, accountability and compliance with laws and regulations. Companies must prioritize integrity and ethics in all their operations, ensuring that their actions are transparent and responsible.
