Identifying Stakeholders and Key Indicators

Canfor and Canfor Pulp maintain an open door policy so we can be sure we consider the interests of key stakeholders in all of our operations.

It is critically important to maintain open communication with First Nations and other parties interested in or potentially impacted by our forest management or manufacturing activities, which include local communities, other forest users, customers, environmental groups, all levels of government, certification organizations, employees, contractors, researchers and suppliers.

We define our stakeholders to be any person or group who is affected by our operations, or conversely has the ability to affect our business. First Nations with traditional territories in our operating areas have special rights and interests, and we work collaboratively with them to address these.

Our major stakeholder groups are provided in the table below. We selected the topics and indicators for this report by examining what is important to these key organizations and individuals, as described in the table.
