About our report
Our ESG report provides an in-depth assessment of our environmental, social and governance performance for the reporting year 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021. It assesses our ability to manage our ESG impacts to create or preserve value for our people and other stakeholders and guard against value destruction. The report is aimed at all stakeholders with an interest in how we manage our direct and indirect environmental impact, how we manage our people and ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of our employees and customers, how we contribute to community upliftment and how we govern our ESG impacts and ensure ethical business conduct.
Scope and boundary
The ESG report covers the businesses over which the Group had operational control during the reporting period, as well as our ESG risks and opportunities and the related issues that matter most to our stakeholders.

Frameworks
The ESG report has been prepared with consideration given to the principles of the Value Reporting Foundation's (formerly the International Integrated Reporting Council) International <IR> Framework (December 2019), the principles of King IV and South Africa's national development priorities. The GRI's Standards have guided the identification of the Group's key ESG indicators. In 2022, we will align our ESG activities to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and their universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all by 2030.
Materiality determination
Our material priorities are those factors most likely to influence the conclusions of our stakeholders when assessing how we create, preserve or may erode value over time within our operating context. They are the factors considered to be within the control of Motus' leadership and which we have identified for close and careful management over the short, medium and longer term, to deepen the Group's resilience, relevance and responsibility in pursuing sustainable value for our stakeholders. They reflect our plans to manage the risks and opportunities associated with the Group's strategy and meet the expectations of our stakeholders. How effectively we manage our material priorities is likely to influence the conclusions of our stakeholders in relation to the capital inputs they provide, and the outcomes they expect in return.
Our material priorities inform the content included in this year's integrated and ESG reports.
