STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
INTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS
Innovation and continuous improvement have been integral to the success of our Company since its founding nearly 100 years ago. Our people drive our business, which is why we engage with all our key internal stakeholders through multiple mechanisms:
- Global Employees: Feedback is continually captured through our Employee Communications Inbox and Materion Ethics and Integrity Hotline. In 2021, our employees participated in a company-wide engagement survey, and in 2022, people managers across the company were engaged in our response. In 2023, Materion will hold a follow-up survey.
- Company Leadership: Our senior leadership team regularly reviews progress towards our ESG efforts alongside other key business priorities.
- Board of Directors: Our Board receives regular updates on progress towards our ESG efforts.
