Samsung Electro-Mechanics announced on the 6th that it has been included in the global ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) evaluation index 'FTSE4Good' for 15 consecutive years since 2011.
According to Samsung Electro-Mechanics, 15 consecutive years is the longest inclusion record in the domestic electronic components industry. This index is a specialized ESG evaluation index created in collaboration with the Financial Times of the United Kingdom and the London Stock Exchange.
Every year, it evaluates over 300 items across 14 sectors related to ESG for corporations worldwide, and if any sector falls below a certain score, inclusion is not possible.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics received excellent scores in all areas of ESG, particularly being highly rated in water resources management, supply chain management, and the corporate governance sector.
Jang Deok-hyun, president of Samsung Electro-Mechanics, said, "Our responsible decisions create valuable growth," adding, "We will internalize sustainable management through minimizing environmental impacts, spreading a corporate culture of mutual respect, and managing safe business sites to become a trusted corporation."
