The highest sustainable governance unit of TSC is the ESG Committee, established in May 2022. It serves as the decision-making and supervisory unit for our sustainable development efforts, dedicated to promoting environmental conservation and fulfilling social responsibilities. The committee has also formulated an ESG Committee Charter to ensure that the Company fulfills its responsibilities in safeguarding the rights and interests of the Company, employees, shareholders, and stakeholders.
Under the ESG Committee are the ESG Office and the Corporate Social Responsibility Functional Team that ensure the promotion and implementation of corporate sustainable development-related work. The ESG Committee is responsible for formulating the Company’s sustainable development policies, strategies, and implementation plans for corporate sustainable governance, integrity operation, and environmental and social goals. It is also responsible for reviewing, tracking, and revising the implementation and effectiveness of the Company’s sustainable development, and reporting to the chairman at least twice a year.
The ESG Committee consists of three members. In 2023, three meetings were held, during which the ESG Office reported to the committee members on the performance of various sustainability projects. This included the publication of the 2022 Sustainability Report (in both Chinese and English), stakeholder engagement projects, progress and tracking of greenhouse gas inventories for each site, and the green energy roadmap proposal. All proposals were unanimously approved by the attending committee members.
