Accounted above is the results of the materiality analysis and the matters prioritized by the company regarding our stakeholders and what we as an organization can contribute to effect, control and where we can be of most use. The sustainability work of I.A. Hedin Bil is mainly focused on the parts where we can make the largest impact, and that is in the daily routines- and environmental aspects at our workplaces. We also see the importance of a sustainable workforce that is granted good terms of labour, competence development and a good, safe and healthy work environment. Our workshops have several laws and rules regarding environment that is to be followed. Car manufacturers also make demands that their resellers and mechanics attend their classes to learn new models. The content of these classes cannot be affected by us. The development within the vehicle business continues and the production of chargeable vehicles such as electric cars, electric hybrids and hybrids is on a rise. Hedin Bil will be selling whatever the clients demand and that the manufacturers decide. Regarding our own facilities there is more to be done. Despite successful efforts there is still facilities to be streamlined, use of electricity, heat and water to be reduced and material recycling to be increased to create a more sustainable operation from several points of view. New sites that is erected will be done so with a more environmentally conscious mindset from the start. This could mean more costly investments, but with future savings regarding costs and resources. 12
