To implement corporate social responsibility, promote economic, social, and environmental sustainability, ABC-ATEC established the "CSR Committee" in 2020. Subsequently, in line with the Financial Supervisory Commission's 2021 update of the "Corporate Governance 3.0 -Sustainable Development Roadmap, "the"Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report"was renamed as the"Sustainability Report"or"ESG Report" in 2021. Consequently, ABC-ATEC 's "CSR Committee" was also renamed as the "ESG Committee" on September 30, 2022, with the Chairman of the Board serving as the "Chairman of the ESG Committee," members of the management team as Vice Chairmen of the Committee, and the Chairman's Office as the executive secretary. Six major working groups were established under the committee, with each group consisting of department heads serving as committee members and representatives assigned to serve as executive committee members. These teams are responsible for planning, data collection, goal setting, and other deliberations on various ESG issues. At least once a year, the progress of sustainability initiatives is reported to the Board of Directors.The "ESG Committee" serves as a cross-departmental communication platform for vertical integration and horizontal collaboration. It addresses economic, environmental, and social issues arising from operational activities, with the Board of Directors authorizing the management team to handle these matters. The committee reports its progress to the Board annually, covering the following agenda items:
- Identification of material sustainability issues.
- Establishment of short-, medium-, and long-term goals for sustainability issues.
- Presentation of sustainability implementation results and future work plans.
The committee continually reviews the progress to ensure the implementation of sustainable business practices. The most recent report to the Board on ESG implementation is scheduled for January 23, 2024.
