About The Report

Yongnam Holdings Limited ("Yongnam", the "Company" or the "Group") is pleased to present its Sustainability Report 2020 for the financial year ended 31 December 2020 ("FY2020"). This sustainability report is in compliance with the requirements of SGX-ST Listing Rules 711A and 711B, and in accordance to the Global Reporting Initiative ("GRI") Standards: Core option. The GRI Standards were selected for their universal application and standardised approach for businesses to report on critical sustainability issues. The report will be published on an annual cycle.

Our report covers the management approach and performance of material ESG factors of the Group in Singapore and operations of our subsidiary, Yongnam Engineering & Construction Pte Ltd, including local construction projects and our in-house production facilities1. For any given project, the main contractor ("our Client") is ultimately responsible for the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) performance of the project while in others, Yongnam might be the main contractor. Nonetheless, where Yongnam is a subcontractor working at the project site, Yongnam is responsible for the employees under our charge on-site, as well as any subsequent sub-contractors whose work is controlled by Yongnam. Any incident or accident involving these workers will be reported back to the headquarters.

While we have not sought assurance for this report, we will strive towards doing so as our reporting matures overtime. For any queries and feedback related to this sustainability report, please contact: info@yongnamgroup.com.

1 Production for Singapore as a percentage of total production was 70% in FY2020.
