Identification of Material Topics
To ensure that
the information disclosed in this Sustainability Report aligns better with
international sustainable development trends, TSC referred to the materiality
identification process of GRI Standards (2021), A sustainability materiality
analysis framework is established, consisting of six steps: Understanding the
organizational context, Materiality identification, Impact identification,
Significance assessment, Identification of material topics, and Definition of
material topic boundaries.
The Identification and Value Chain Boundary of Material Topics
Utilization of
GRI Standards and incorporation of GRI Industry Standards into sustainability
topic references. Through the process of framework for the analysis of the significance of sustainability
topics, a total of 15 material
topics were identified this year. We adopted different methods to identify
material topics in order to focus more on the management of material topics,
and to take into account the limited allocation of corporate resources and manpower. Compared with the material
topics of the previous year, 14 major themes are reduced.Note
Based on the
material topic assessment conducted for this year’s Sustainability Report, with the value
chain being used as the element for the boundary analysis, we have summarized
the contents in five chapters that include 「Implementing
sustainable management」、「Leveraging natural capital」、「Creating social value」、「Taking care of
taiwan sugar corporation partners」、「Building climate
resilience」explaining TSC’s
active management in the aspects of economy, product liability, environment,
social participation, human rights, and employee care.TSC will continue to
strengthen sustainable management and disclose relevant information in the
corporate sustainability report.
Note: Compared with the material topics of the
previous year, the material topics that decreased in the current
year are as follows: Water and Effluents, Energy, Animal Health
and Welfare, Social Engagement, Supplier Environmental Assessment, Supplier
Social Assessment, Natural Ecosystem Conversion, Air pollutant emissions,
Waste, Pesticides use, Employee Diversity and Equal Opportunity, Freedom of
Association and Collective Bargaining, Forced or Compulsory Labor and Land and
Resource Rights, with a total of 14 topics.
After analysis
of the material topics in the 2025 Sustainability Report and with the value
chain being used as the element for the boundary analysis, from upstream (e.g.,
suppliers/contractors) and Taiwan Sugar Corporation itself through to
downstream (e.g., customers), we have summarized the contents in five chapters
that include 「Implementing
sustainable management」、「Leveraging natural capital」、「Creating social value」、「Taking care of taiwan sugar corporation partners」、「Building climate
resilience」explaining TSC’s active management in the aspects of economy,
product liability, environment, social participation, human rights, and
employee care.TSC will continue to strengthen sustainable management and
disclose relevant information in the corporate sustainability report.
