- Supplier environmental performance is integrated into the procurement decision-making process, and a robust system is established to ensure compliance with environmental standards across the entire supply chain through regular evaluations and strengthened collaboration.
Monitoring of Environmental Performance
- Environmental data such as greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption, and waste generation are measured and analyzed annually to monitor environmental performance.
- The progress towards environmental goals is evaluated, and corrective actions are taken when necessary to ensure continuous improvement in environmental performance.
Implementation of Related Policies and Strengthening of Information Disclosure
