The Report will be followed by a Sustainability Plan, which aims at the progressive integration of ESG issues in every aspect of the Company’s activities, identifying the sustainability objectives, strategies and actions to be implemented in the medium and long term, in line with the its industrial plan, which the Company undertakes to implement and communicate to the stakeholders.
