Our Mid- to Long-term Sustainability Management Strategy
Hyundai Steel has organized a mid- to long-term strategy for sustainability management comprising three key directions, four implementation strategies and 16 areas. We are actively engaged in executing and managing specific tasks for each priority areas. Based on this 'Mid- to Long-term Sustainability Management Strategy,' we will continue our commitment in meeting our targets to advance as a sustainable company.
Internalizing Strategic Goals for Sustainability Management
Hyundai Steel incorporates sustainability management targets into senior management performance evaluations such that they comprise at least 5% of the evaluation items. Starting in 2020, we analyzed impacts and risks to key business areas such as human rights, safety, the environment, governance and the supply chain, taking into account both domestic and global ESG trends and worked with expert advisers to identify high-priority items. Furthermore, we established an ESG governance system that sets out annual targets and strategies to implement over the next five years or less. Looking ahead, we plan to manage targets and tasks for sustainability management by incorporating key ESG items, such as ESG ratings, into employee performance targets.
