We have robust internal processes and an effective internal control environment that facilitate the identification and management of risks and regular communication with the Board of Directors, and the Sustainability Steering Committee. Board of Directors are the highest governing body and play a critical role in approving sustainability and risk management framework, and in deliberating on reports from the SSC on sustainability matters on a quarterly basis. SSC is chaired by our Group Managing Director ("GMD") and comprises of our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), and General Managers of respective businesses. SSC acts as an advisor and bridge between the Board of Directors and the operating companies ("OC") that are supported by their respective Sustainability Working Committees ("SWC"). SSC is responsible for identifying and reviewing the material sustainability matters of the Group and their management, targets, and performance before reporting to the Board of Directors. Each SWC is chaired by the respective General Managers and comprises of the members from the OCs, managing the relevant areas of labor standards and human rights, training and education, supply chain, anti-corruption, community development, occupational health and safety, and environmental impact (energy, emissions, waste, water). SWCs integrate sustainability into the business strategy on a daily basis and also facilitate our sustainability-related work with government and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), universities, technology and industry partners. These collaborations enable us to implement sustainability best practices in areas such as operations, product innovation, employee engagement, supply chain and advocacy. SSC and SWC also work together to identify gaps in our disclosure and to develop the short-term and long-term approach to address these gaps, as well as in assessing best practices of industry peers.
