Doosan Infracore won certification for its inclusion in the industrial engineering category of the DJSI Asia Pacific, for two consecutive years, at the “2012 Dow Jones Sustainable Management Index International Conference” held at Shilla Hotel, in Seoul, on October 9.
DJSJ is a global assessment index that comprehensively evaluates not only financial achievements but also environmental and social aspects. The index enjoys global credibility in the assessment of sustainable business and socially responsibly investment(SRI).
Doosan Infracore won high scores in the economic and social categories, including anti-corruption policies, emerging market strategy, and recruitment and development of human resources, among the items assessed, and thus received a higher score in evaluation than last year.
Doosan Infracore has been striving to preemptively identify and improve issues of sustainable management through its proprietary sustainable management evaluative tools and activities involving its stakeholders. The Company opened a new organization to take charge of sustainable management in the China region this year and has applied the same sustainable management system as that used in Korea. Based on these achievements, Doosan Infracore plans to expand the sustainable management system to include North America and Europe in the future.
DJSI consists of the World, Asia Pacific, and Korea by level. A total of 154 companies in the Asia-Pacific region, including 33 Korean firms, such as Doosan Infracore, made the list of the 2012 DJSI Asia Pacific.
Meanwhile, Doosan Infracore was selected as the best company in the ESG (environment, society, and corporate governance) evaluation conducted by the Korea Corporate Governance Institute last June. The Company also acquired the highest grade of AAA in the evaluation of sustainability conducted by Eco Frontier and the highest grade of AA in the Sustinvest survey of socially responsible management performance.
