To provide safe, reliable, high-quality and sustainable green chemical products, Everlight Chemical works with its raw material supply chain partners to jointly fulfill the responsibility for sustainable development, with business integrity as the foundation for partnerships. We promote green procurement practices and implement a supplier management policy to oversee suppliers’ performance in corporate social responsibilities. We expect our supplier partners to follow applicable labor and human rights regulations, implement proper environmental health and safety practices, ensure product quality and timely delivery, offer competitive prices and provide quality services, all of which would facilitate win-win collaborations.

No. of Suppliers that Completed the Survey/Form | 99 | 25 | 27 | 32 | 16 |
Compliance Rate | 100% (Note 1) | 100% | Improved wastewater generation: 96% (Note 2.1) Improved wastewater discharge: 93% (Note 2.2) | Occupational safety and health regulations: 94% (Note 2.3) Labor laws: 100% (Note 2.4) | 100% (Note 1) |
(2.1) Improvement on wastewater generated per ton of finished product: Out of 27 suppliers, one showed declined performance. The increase in water consumption and wastewater volume was due to improvements in product quality, but the wastewater was treated and recycled, resulting in improved wastewater discharge performance compared to the previous year.
(2.2) Improvement on wastewater discharge performance: Out of 27 suppliers, two showed declined performance. One supplier had increased wastewater discharge due to excess rainwater and residential water use. The other had increased wastewater discharge due to increased production capacity, but their performance on reducing wastewater generation improved.
(2.3) Compliance with occupational safety and health regulations and (2.4) labor laws is calculated separately. A supplier is rated “non-compliant” as long as there was an incidence of violation or non-compliance with applicable regulations. In 2022, two suppliers were found with records of violating occupational safety and health regulations, resulting in an overall compliance rate of (32-2)/32 = 94%.

On-Site Contractors
2. In the fourth quarter of 2022, each plant conducted its first satisfaction survey for contractors, covering 89 contractors in total. The overall contractor satisfaction score was 96.8 points. The “Ethics and Integrity of Purchasing Personnel” item in the survey received a high average score of 9.9 points, while the “Review Process prior to Operations” item scored a slightly lower score of 9.6 points. We will continue to communicate and collaborate with contractors to address their concerns and make improvements accordingly.
