In order to ensure steady, resilient growth over the long- term, we continue to implement a host of human resource, responsible care and governance initiatives all of which are indispensable to our business. We share policies and targets across the entire Group in an effort to establish and maintain safe and stable operations (these also make up part of the basic policies for our Polymers and Chemicals businesses). These policies and target also ensure that health, safety and environmental care is maintained throughout the product lifecycle, and that the quality of products and services that we deliver is maintained and improved upon.

EMPLOYMENT [401-1, 401-2, 401-3, 405-2] Employee retention remains one of the critical factors in determining the success of continuous sustainable practices. In FY 2019, we registered a total employee turnover rate of 11.6% with some 39 employees leaving the Company. At the same time, 30 new recruits joined the Company. Moving forward, we remain committed to maintaining a low employee turnover rate for the coming years.
