– Inclusiveness: This principle analyzes whether the company has identified and understood the relevant aspects of its sustainable performance and presents sufficient
information in terms of quality and quantity. For more information, please refer to the “Material Issues” section in this chapter.
– Materiality: The information must be the information required by the stakeholders. In other words, it ensures disclosure of all those material aspects whose omission or
distortion could influence its stakeholders’ decisions or actions. For more information, please refer to the GRI-G4 Indicators Table.
– Responsiveness: This report includes the information relating to Ferrovial’s response to stakeholder expectations.
