La empresa atribuye la calificación B+ a los avances relacionados con su Declaración de Gestión de Derechos Humanos, la caja de envío ecológica y el establecimiento de un Comité interno ESG

SEUL, Corea del Sur, 23 de noviembre de 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Seegene Inc. (KQ096530), una empresa surcoreana líder que ofrece una solución total para el diagnóstico molecular por PCR, anunció el 10 de noviembre que recibió una calificación general de 'B+' en la evaluación ESG de 2023 realizada por el Instituto Coreano de Gobernanza Corporativa y Sostenibilidad (KCGS).

KCGS, una de las principales agencias de evaluación ESG de Corea del Sur, califica anualmente el nivel de gestión sostenible, en las categorías ambiental, social y de gobernanza, de las empresas que cotizan en bolsa a nivel nacional. La agencia califica a las empresas según la siguiente escala: S, A+, A, B+, B, C y D.

Seegene logró una calificación general de 'B+', que supone una mejora de dos grados en comparación con su calificación 'C' de 2022. En concreto, la compañía mejoró un nivel en la categoría medioambiental (de 'B' a 'B+'), mantuvo un 'B+' en la categoría social y mejoró tres niveles en la categoría de gobernanza (de 'D' a 'B+'). La compañía atribuyó su logro al avance de sus iniciativas de gestión sostenible que sentaron las bases para la gestión activa del riesgo no financiero.

En 2022, Seegene formó el Comité ESG que depende directamente de la Junta Directiva y desarrolló cuatro direcciones estratégicas principales: construir un sistema ecológico; fortalecer la gestión de productos; mejorar el valor para las partes interesadas y establecer una gobernanza sostenible. Para ejecutar dichos objetivos, la empresa formó un equipo ESG dedicado a mejorar continuamente en cada área.

Además, Seegene publica un Informe de Gestión de Sostenibilidad desde 2022.

Examinando de cerca cada categoría de la calificación, en 'Medio ambiente', la compañía respondió activamente al cambio climático y fortaleció sus esfuerzos de gestión. Para abordar las regulaciones ambientales globales, Seegene desarrolló una caja de envío ecológica hecha de materiales 100 % reciclables, lo que ha contribuido a una reducción del 12 % en los costes de transporte y las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. Seegene presentó su caja de envío ecológica para patente nacional en noviembre de 2022 y presentó una solicitud internacional en virtud del Tratado de Cooperación en materia de Patentes (PCT) en octubre de 2023.

Seegene reforzó la categoría "Social" al anunciar su Declaración de Gestión de Derechos Humanos y establecer un Sistema de Gestión de Seguridad de la Información. La empresa ha estado fomentando la igualdad de oportunidades laborales, incluidas las personas con discapacidad.

En cuanto a la 'Gobernanza', se formó el Comité ESG para supervisar las principales cuestiones y riesgos internos y externos de ESG. Permitió a la empresa generar confianza con todas las partes interesadas y garantizar la supervisión y las operaciones comerciales responsables. En particular, Seegene garantiza una mayor transparencia y respeto por los derechos de los accionistas.

"Seguiremos mejorando nuestra gestión ESG respondiendo activamente al cambio climático, la gestión de los derechos humanos y la gestión de la cadena de suministro, al tiempo que mejoramos el valor para los accionistas", afirmó David Lee, vicepresidente de relaciones con inversores de Seegene.
