To demonstrate our commitment to environmental responsibility, IRPC has established a “Quality, Security, Safety, Occupational Health, Environment and Energy Management Policy” (QSSHE), aiming to shape innovation material and energy solution in harmony with life by adopting sustainability framework. The policy focuses on compliance with laws and regulations, the adoption of Operational Excellence Management System (OEMS) incorporating the 7Rs and Green Turnaround principles, systematic risk management through As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) and Management of Change (MOC), optimizing resource use by increasing efficiency and promoting a circular economy, supporting research and development as well as disseminating, engaging, and communicating the QSSHE policy, programs and performance to all stakeholders.
The QSSHE Policy applies to all IRPC businesses across the value chain, including production, products, services, distribution, and logistics, as well as IRPC’s 100%-owned subsidiaries and joint ventures. Newly acquired businesses or sites must comply with IRPC’s Policy within 24 months after acquisition, or sooner. Furthermore, IRPC expects business partners, such as associate companies or other investments, non-managed operations for which we do not have operating responsibility, contractors, suppliers, and other licensees, and outsourcing partners with whom we have a significant involvement, to comply with the IRPC QSSHE policy.
The oversight of the Company’s environmental governance is under the purview of the Corporate Governance and Sustainability Committee, with the strict implementation of this policy supported by executives and employees at all levels.
