[Financial News] Taihan Cable & Solution Co., Ltd. received an overall A rating in the Korea Institute of Corporate Governance and Sustainability (KCGS)’s 2026 ESG assessment. It has maintained the same rating every year since 2021, when it joined the Hoban Group and became the only company in the cable industry to earn an overall A rating.
According to Taihan Cable & Solution Co., Ltd. on the 11th, it received ratings of A in environmental (E), A+ in social (S), and B+ in governance (G) in this assessment. The social rating rose from A last year to A+, while the environmental and governance ratings were unchanged from the previous year. This year, improvements in the social category stood out even as the company maintained its overall rating.
Taihan Cable & Solution Co., Ltd. believes that quantifying its safety- and human rights-related targets and revising its human rights declaration and supplier code of conduct, among other measures, contributed positively to its social category assessment.
The company is strengthening its systems in response to global customers’ and business partners’ requirements for ESG management across their supply chains. In line with its carbon-neutrality roadmap, it is expanding its use of renewable energy and operates family-friendly programs tailored to different life stages, including pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare. It has also strengthened its compliance management framework, including by obtaining certification under ISO 37301, the international standard for compliance management systems.
A Taihan Cable & Solution Co., Ltd. representative said, “Earning an overall A rating for six consecutive years is the result of our continued efforts to embed ESG management throughout our corporate culture,” and added, “We will continue our efforts to fulfill our environmental and social responsibilities and enhance management transparency, raise our trustworthiness and competitiveness in global markets, and further solidify the foundation for sustainable growth.”
