Identifying Key Stakeholders
AP Memory references the AA1000 SES stakeholder engagement standards, focusing on the five dimensions of "Responsibility, Influence, Tension, Diverse Perspectives, and Dependence," to identify key stakeholders. In 2023, following the processes from 2021 and 2022, 11 ESG project leaders and members participated in the identification and discussion, confirming the key stakeholder categories as customers, employees, suppliers, and shareholders. The scoring results for the five dimensions were reviewed, and no significant changes were found in the existing stakeholder identification. Therefore, the four key stakeholder categories—customers,
employees, suppliers, and shareholders—will continue to be used.
