- When selecting new suppliers, we ask them to complete a self-assessment form that includes social and environmental aspects, allowing us to analyze the supplier's background information.
- The metals used by our suppliers must comply with conflict-free mineral principles, and suppliers must provide reports on hazardous substances, safety data sheets, or conflict-free mineral declarations.
- In addition to requiring suppliers to obtain valid certificates for ISO environmental and other management systems, we also assess suppliers through ESG questionnaires, on-site audits, and other methods to ensure that their operations comply with ABC’s supplier management policy.
- In response to the varying impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in different countries, we have diversified our procurement sources to avoid over-reliance on specific countries or single suppliers.
