BenQ is committed to establishing a long-term collaboration model with suppliers, grow together with them, and establish a complete set of targets and plans according to schedule, all of which will be completed gradually according to the plan for each stage so that we can improve upon our sustainable supply chain.
Suppliers whose CSR documents are due to expire are required to sign the Supplier’s Social Responsibility and Business Ethics Agreement. In 2023, already 30% of our first-tier suppliers signed the Supplier’s Social Responsibility and Business Ethics Agreement; it is expected that all first-tier suppliers will sign by 2024.
We are planning to have on-site audits of suppliers include items related to social responsibility. We will inquire about local procurement at factories, ask suppliers to provide the amount used to purchase production equipment, and confirm the percentage of local procurement. We will inquire about the ESG goals of first-tier suppliers, and have them work with BenQ on reaching shared goals.
The goal is to complete on-site audits of all partner suppliers. We will require key suppliers to undergo code of conduct audits by a third-party organization certified by the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA).

Explanation for non-achievement: Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions in 2023 increased by 25.21% compared to 2020. This was due to the impact of the pandemic from 2020 to 2022, during which there were 3 to 4 months of work-from-home (WFH) each year, and a full return to office work in 2023, resulting in the increase of total electricity usage and in turn impacting the amount of carbon emissions.
