Sustainable Development Committee

To integrate the concept of sustainability into the enterprise operation while responding to the sustainability trend, Apacer transformed its CSR Committee into the Sustainable Development Committee in 2021, with the Chairman still serving as the Committee Chief and the President serving as the Chief Executive Officer of the Committee. Following the development prospect and goals of the company, the Apacer ESG policies were formulated along with short, mid, and longterm goals, implementation strategies, and management systems.


There are two teams established under the Sustainable Development Committee, one of which is the ESG Implementation Team, commanding five sub-groups, namely "Corporate Governance", "Employee Care","Customer and Supplier Care","Environmental Care,"and"Community Care," and the managers of related departments act as the heads of the teams, formulating implementation projects and organizing action teams according to the short,mid and long-term goals of each group, combining the daily operation of the department and sustainable development. The Risk
Management Team is responsible for regularly inspecting various risks faced by the enterprise, controlling and putting forward improvement plans under the supervision of the managers of the six centers and three divisions of the enterprise.
