Supply Chain Management
Supplier Sustainability Management
Supply chain sustainability in environmental social governance is a key element of our overall focus on corporate social responsibility. USI plays a vital role in transforming our society into a green and low carbon economy. We regard sustainability and corporate citizenship as the growth opportunity and commit to providing eco-efficient and responsible service to our customers to achieve satisfactory performance in environmental, social and governance (ESG). USI shall lead and create practices in innovation and sustainability to make a positive impact on our sector, business, stakeholders and society.
As a responsible corporate citizen, USI has taken proactive measures to ensure the highest standards of professional and ethical business conduct. We believe that the sustainable development of our enterprise and the realization of its social responsibilities are vital to our long-term strategies and success.
USI establish the Green & Environment, Health, and Safety Management Department to assure products and operating systems comply with international environmental regulations. We continue to drive performance improvements in our supply chain. We made many activities toward meeting our Green Policy, and continued to collaborate with our suppliers around capability-building and reducing environmental impact.
To properly assess the sustainability risk of suppliers and ensure they comply with USI's Supplier Code of Conduct, USI suppliers are required to sign a commitment to follow the Code and respond to USI's sustainability risk assessment questionnaire, which covers five aspects: labor rights, health and safety, environmental protection, sustainability and risk management, and supply chain management. These supplier risk assessments ensure their risks can be effectively reduced and controlled. On-site audits are conducted for suppliers that may have higher risks to gain a deeper understanding of their sustainability development status, implement effective supplier management, reduce risks, improve the overall efficiency of the supply chain, and strengthen the sustainable development of the supply chain.
