Sustainability Governance Framework
In 2024, Everlight restructured the former CSR Committee into the Sustainability Development Office, serving as the Company’s highest-level coordination unit for ESG strategies and sustainability governance. The Office is represented by the Head of the Legal Division, appointed by the Chairman, reporting to the President, and presenting major resolutions, strategies, and annual action plans to the Board of Directors at least once a year.
Task Forces for Implementation
To strengthen sustainability execution, Everlight has established three specialized task forces under the Sustainability Development Office:
- ESG Task Force: Chaired by the President, integrating cross-departmental members from Finance, Accounting, Legal, Intellectual Property, Audit, Human Resources, General Affairs, Sales, Quality Assurance, Information Technology, and R&D. The Task Force identifies material sustainability issues in accordance with international standards (GRI, SASB, TCFD) and stakeholder engagement outcomes, formulates management guidelines, and ensures continuous improvement.
- Sustainability Report Task Force: Responsible for coordinating report preparation and cross-departmental collaboration.
- Risk Management Task Force: Operates under the Board-approved Risk Management Policy, systematically identifying and managing operational and climate-related risks, and reporting results to the Board.
Sustainable Practices in Operations
Everlight is committed to embedding sustainability into daily operations. Following international standards such as GRI, SASB, and TCFD, the Company incorporates stakeholder concerns into its management approach. Each factory site appoints representatives to oversee labor rights, ethics, environmental health and safety, and supply chain responsibility. These practices cover employee care, ethical governance, environmental stewardship, and responsible supply chain management.
Commitment to the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA)
Everlight actively supports the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) Code of Conduct, ensuring compliance with its five categories: Labor, Ethics, Environment, Health & Safety, and Management Systems. The Company regularly holds communication meetings with employees and suppliers, strengthens environmental and safety awareness, and conducts on-site supplier audits to ensure effective implementation. Through these efforts, Everlight builds a responsible supply chain and continuously improves its sustainability performance.
