SAMSUNG SDI remains committed to the philosophy that “ESG management lies at the core of our business growth strategy and offers a differentiating competitive edge.” We focus on environmentally friendly management practices such as climate change response and resource circulation. We also identify and carry out various initiatives to fulfil our corporate social responsibility, including boosting supply chain sustainability, ensuring employee and product safety, and fostering a culture of diversity and inclusion. Through these efforts, we aim to enhance stakeholder engagement and pursue sustainable growth based on trust by transparently disclosing information related to sustainability management.
The Board of Directors at SAMSUNG SDI serves as the highest decision-making body for sustainable management and operates the Sustainability Management Committee. This Committee carries out key sustainability-related responsibilities, including reviewing and approving double materiality assessment results, monitoring company-wide ESG performance, and managing sustainability issues that may significantly affect shareholder value. In addition, SAMSUNG SDI has strengthened executive-level commitment through the Sustainability Management Council, a C-level consultative body led by the CEO. The Sustainability Management Office, reporting directly to the CFO, develops long-term ESG strategies and oversees the integrated management of material sustainability issues. The Sustainability Management Office supports the operation of both the Sustainability Management Council and the Sustainability Management Committee, ensuring that key ESG matters are discussed and resolved in a timely manner by executive leadership and the Board. ESG units have been established across each business division, enabling companywide ESG implementation in close collaboration with the Sustainability Management Office.
