The company has demanded its suppliers commit to this code, contributing to awareness and improvement regarding the human rights, child and forced labor, governance compliance, and sustainable supply chain practices among. Furthermore, since 2022, Hyosung TNC has requested its suppliers respond to self-assessment questionnaires or assessments from reputable external evaluation organizations related to ESG elements. The responses are used as foundational data for Hyosung T&C's sustainable supply chain risk assessment. For small- and medium-sized suppliers, the company offers support to enhance their ESG capabilities in coordination with the Win-Win Growth Program. 

    Hyosung TNC has established scenario training and response manuals to systematically address emergencies that may impact the delivery schedules of all products supplied to our customers. Based on these preparations, we conduct drills to assess the impact and scale of emergencies, identify their causes, and implement recovery and mitigation measures. These drills also help us identify issues and improvement areas at each response stage and validate the effectiveness of our response scenarios. Additionally, since 2023, we have incorporated ESG criteria into legally binding purchase agreements to enhance our operations.
