GRI Content Index

HHLA’s reporting adheres to the guidelines stipulated in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). The Annual Report makes use of the G4 reporting standard in line with the option “comprehensive” and meets the requirements of the Global Reporting Initiative’s GRI Content Index Service. The Combined Management Report, Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes as well as the Annual Financial Statements of Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG were subject to an independent review by Ernst & Young.

Content

The GRI Content Index provides an overview of the general and specific standard disclosures. The general standard disclosures provide a strategic overview of the company’s sustainable organisation and reporting and address indicators regarding corporate governance and stakeholder involvement. The specific standard disclosures are divided into three categories: economic, environmental and social. The different managerial approaches to the respective categories are explained alongside the applicable GRI indicator.

Application

The GRI Content Index indicates at which points in the Annual Report the corresponding standard to the respective GRI indicator can be found and provides a direct link to these points. Furthermore, the Index also points to pages on the HHLA website which contain information pertaining to GRI. These external links are marked with an symbol. In cases where no information about the GRI indicator is available, this will be explained.

The description of each indicator is a condensed version. The literally description according to the GRI Implementation Manual can be found under the symbol.
