POSCO INTERNATIONAL (CEO: Joo Si-Bo) published its 2021 Corporate Citizenship Report on July 29, which notably contains the slogan "Who Acts Wins". This Corporate Citizenship Report shows the general business management status of the company and emphasizes that ESG business administration is necessary and must be of high priority for corporate survival.

The POSCO INTERNATIONAL report offered noticeably enhanced readability and convenience for general readers and all personnel involved. The Corporate Citizenship Report consists of four sections with the headings of ▲Core Business, ▲Environmental, ▲Social, and ▲Governance, as well as a separate Factbook analyzing the company's ESG information, with a recently growing emphasis on socially responsible investments. This is to actively help the decision-making process of all people involved.

In terms of design and functionality, the report was published in landscape instead of portrait for better web readability.

This report also emphasizes POSCO INTERNATIONAL's implementation of human rights business administration to help its personnel, both domestic and international, to work in an environment of safety and respect, despite the instabilities caused by current international events. The company resumed its human rights impact assessments of its overseas business sites, which had been halted due to COVID-19, and disclosed the onsite survey results and management plans, making public its intentions for a more robust human rights administration.

Moreover, the ESG Issue Paper that gives the company's official position on ESG issues was strengthened after the positive reception of last year's paper. It summarizes POSCO INTERNATIONAL's positions on the demands of external groups and international events including the Myanmar crisis and the Indonesian palm enterprise's environmental and social issues, business status and management plans to support transparent communication with everyone involved.

CEO Joo Si-Bo promised POSCO INTERNATIONAL's active participation in securing a sustainable future, commenting "it is important to disclose and communicate the company's ESG business management status transparently through the Corporate Citizenship Report."
