OUR APPROACH Environmental Protection Shapes Our Culture We encourage our employees to be stewards of our environment on two levels: operational and personal. Employees continuously look for ways to improve operational efficiencies, minimise water use and waste generation, and reduce GHG emissions. Our employees also participate in group-wide Eco-Initiatives which we initiated in 2021 and our continued efforts in 2022 across our global units have produced results. For example, Miltope’s, U.S. environmental protection awareness campaign led to employees being conscious of turning off lights 88% of the time with a 69% improvement from pre-campaign levels. These efforts across many of our business units collectively cultivates an eco-conscious culture and helps shape our habits at workplaces as well as the communities we live in. An organisation’s business activity has the potential to negatively impact the environment by misusing natural resources, emitting GHG irresponsibly and polluting the physical environment. At ST Engineering, we recognise the impact of environmental degradation and climate change, and strive to conduct our business responsibly without compromising the needs of future generations. OUR COMMITMENT We are committed to a pathway towards net zero and target to halve our absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030 compared to a 2010 base year. We strive to conserve resources such as water and energy, minimise waste and pollution, and be part of the circular economy. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION OUR GOALS Our 2022 Goals Continue to reduce absolute GHG emissions and expand initiatives globally, especially in renewable energy use Continue to reduce waste generation from operations and maintain waste recycling at 50% or better Our Achievements We identified areas to further increase our operational efficiency and reduce our emissions In our Singapore operations, we continued to expand our onsite solar photovoltaics (PVs) installations. We also commissioned a renewable energy study for our U.S. operations We achieved a waste recycling rate of 75% Our 2023 Goals Implement a sustainability reporting platform to improve the accuracy, traceability and transparency of our environmental data across our global units Optimise our building facilities to reduce our operational emissions ENVIRONMENTAL Our employees from our Land Systems business partnered with South West Community gardeners and received the Gold award in the Singapore Gardeners’ Cup 2022. The team spent weeks to plan, prepare and build their garden themed “The Dance of Dragonflies” using recycled materials such as aluminium cans, ring pulls, used wood and stones.
