At SWN, we focus our corporate responsibility (CR) efforts and reporting on priorities that are important to our stakeholders.
To identify these important CR priorities, we interview and consider the views of internal and external stakeholders, with respect to both SWN-specific activities and energy development generally. Based on this assessment, which we update annually, we identify key topics that can be grouped into the following six categories:
- economic performance
- governance
- health and safety
- environment
- communities
- workforce
We use this methodology as a basis for selecting which Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) indicators to report, and we believe our process for determining report content meets the GRI principle requirements for defining report content, sustainability context, materiality, completeness and stakeholder inclusiveness.
