Governance for Sustainable Development
To embed sustainability in our company's development and further realize corporate social responsibility, Wistron appointed the Board of Directors as the highest decision-making body to promote sustainable development. In 2019, the Board of Directors established the ESG Committee, which was renamed the ESG and Information Security Committee in 2025, when the Board decided to incorporate information security governance. The Committee reports the outcomes and future work plans of sustainable development and information security management to the Board of Directors at least twice a year. The Board of Directors oversees the implementation and effectiveness of various sustainability projects, giving prior approval to major projects before roll-out.
ESG and Information Security Committee
The ESG and Information Security Committee reports to the Board of Directors. All committee members are directors and include at least one independent director. The committee members elect one member among themselves to serve as the convener and chairperson of the committee. The committee meets at least twice a year and is responsible for reviewing the Company’s overall sustainable development directions, strategies, and objectives, as well as inspecting relevant management policies and specific action plans, monitoring sustainability information disclosure, and approving the sustainability report. In 2025, the Committee reported on sustainability progress to the Board five times. The ESG Executive Committee also operates under the ESG and Information Security Committee. It meets monthly and is composed of the President & CEO and the Chief Sustainability Officer. The Information Security Executive Committee meets at least quarterly and is composed of the President & CEO, the Chief Operating Architecture Officer & Chief Technology Officer, and the Chief Digital Officer & Chief Information Security Officer. These two committees are responsible for overseeing and managing the performance of ESG and information security projects, respectively.
Sustainability Office
Wistron established the Sustainability Office in 2021 to spearhead and manage sustainable development across the company. A Chief Sustainability Officer was appointed in 2025 to roll outsustainability strategies, projects, as well as initiatives passed by the board of directors and the ESG and Information Security Committee. This includes sustainability disclosures, annual sustainability reports, identification of relevant sustainability topics, formulation of initiatives, budget allocation for the organization's sustainable development, and progress monitoring to ensure that our daily operations comply with sustainability strategies.
Six Sustainability Strategies Working Groups
Wistron integrates sustainability into daily operations and systematically incorporates past ESG performance actions to envision greater sustainable value creation for the future. This has led to six brand-new sustainability strategies, known as the ESG 6-Pillar, that will drive Wistron's advancement in the next decade. It starts from the vision and is drawn up from top to bottom to define short-term (1-3 years), mid-term (4-5 years) and long-term (6-10 years) goals. Senior executives serve as Pillar Owners and guide each working group to roll out corresponding plans from the bottom up, ensuring a solid structural foundation for these strategies. The President & CEO, also chair of the ESG Executive Committee, oversees progress across the sustainable strategies each month and reports achievements to the ESG and Information Security Committee at least once every six months.
