Integrate ESG concepts into Hong Kong corporate cleaning to add value to your cleaning choices

The full Chinese name of ESG is "Environment", "Social" and "Governance" . This term was first proposed by the UN Global Compact in 2004 and is considered an important indicator for evaluating the operating conditions of a company and a key factor in winning the trust of customers and investors. In the ESG framework, environmental protection involves issues such as climate change response, pollution control, waste management and the use of renewable energy; social responsibility covers the development of human resources, product safety responsibilities and the protection of stakeholders' rights and interests; and corporate governance involves important issues such as business ethics, competitive behavior, financial stability and transparency. While pursuing profits, companies should not ignore their responsibility to the environment. Cleaning services that incorporate ESG concepts are not only an investment in the company itself, but also a contribution to society and the environment.

How to do ESG well?
