Inclusive Society - SCG Sustainability

SCG is actively driving business growth in tandem with social development under the “Inclusive Green Growth” approach aiming to move business while fostering the creation of a balanced, inclusive, and resilient society.

The goal is to build a society where all sectors can participate in and benefit from the transition to a low-carbon economy in an equitable manner, forming the foundation for long-term competitiveness and sustainable growth. To drive this strategy, SCG employs four primary mechanisms:

1. Comprehensive policies and governance on labor, human rights, and supply chain management

SCG is committed to enhancing the quality of life of employees, supply chain partners, communities, and society through strong governance in human rights, health and safety, and future skills development. The Company has established clear governance structures to oversee, drive, and monitor performance across these key areas as follows:

Employees

Human rights due diligence processes are conducted annually to proactively identify and mitigate potential risks that may impact the Company’s reputation and operating costs. In addition, grievance mechanisms and appropriate remediation measures are established to address potential impacts effectively and fairly.
Health and safety Enhance safety management system through the Workplace Safety Committee and Transportation Safety Committee under the SCG Safety Framework, the Goods Transportation Safety Standard, and the “Life-Saving Rules,” covering both operations and transportation. Digital technologies are leveraged to improve effectiveness, such as the Health Management System for systematic employee health care, the Logistics Control Center and LMS to monitor transportation and ADAS/DMS to provide alerts and reduce risky driving behaviors. In addition, a Safety Dashboard is implemented to track safety performance in real time, fostering a proactive safety culture.
Employee Capability Development and Skill Acceleration By embedding ESG concepts into the Employee Journey to ensure the readiness for the low carbon transition and evolving stringent environmental regulations. Capability development is delivered through SCG Flagship Programs, including the Net Zero Accelerator Program (NZP) for executives and the ESG Leadership Program for mid-level management, which cultivates sustainability-driven leadership, ensuring business decisions align with a low-carbon pathway. In 2025, 48 executives participated in the second batch of NZP, while 70 mid-level managers joined the third batch of the ESG Leadership Program, an advanced continuation

of the Young Talent Manager (YTM) program, which has been conducted for 16 batches. Additionally, the ZERO TO ONE Internal Startup has been initiated through the HATCH WALK FLY program, empowering employees to become innovators and creators of new revenue-generating businesses, such as Wake Up Waste Platform, which provides managing and trading recyclable waste and compactor truck services to enhance transportation efficiency.

Communities and society SCG continues to strengthen the industrial ecosystem through the Go Together Project and Net Zero Accelerator Program (NZAP) for the second consecutive year. These initiatives aim to transfer practical knowledge and experience in energy management, waste reduction, and the application of technology in production. Collaboration has been expanded through key networks, including the Federation of Thai Industries, the Department of Industrial Promotion, and the Office of Small and Medium Enterprises Promotion (OSMEP), to broaden access for entrepreneurs nationwide. In 2025, 1,203 enterprises participated in the Go Together program, while 106 SMEs joined NZAP, reflecting tangible progress in enhancing SME capabilities toward a low-carbon economy in a systematic and scalable manner.
