FGV Sustainability Report 2019

20 FGV HOLDINGS BERHAD The Group Management Committee is chaired by the GCEO. He also acts as the advisor to the Sustainability Synergy Committee. The GSD reports directly to the GCEO, driving higher accountability and quick decision-making in areas concerning corporate respect for human rights and social responsibility as well as environmental sustainability, which include commitment to the ‘No Deforestation, No Peat, No Exploitation’ (NDPE) Policy. Given this newly-established reporting structure, the GCEO plays a significant and direct role in overseeing and advising on the overall conduct of the Group’s sustainability efforts and programmes. The Head of GSD directs and oversees the day-to-day work of the GSD and advises the Group on matters pertaining to sustainability, which include aspects relating to human rights and environmental protection. The Head of the GSD also serves as the Chairperson of the Sustainability Synergy Committee, with committee members from various Business Sectors. SUSTAINABILITY AT FGV GRI 102-11 SUSTAINABILITY MANAGEMENT Our Group Sustainability Division (GSD) has the overall responsibility for developing, implementing and monitoring sustainability strategies and performance. In early 2019, GSD’s mandate was expanded to cover the entire Group’s operations – prior to that, GSD only covered FGV’s Plantation Sector. We appointed new leadership in GSD consisting of personnel with a cumulative experience of 45 years in the fields of human rights, law reform and development. Additionally, GSD now reports directly to the Group CEO of FGV, reflecting our renewed focus on embedding and mainstreaming sustainability across the Group. To ensure better communication and more effective implementation of sustainability initiatives across the Group, our Sustainability Synergy Committee (SSC) was established in 2019. Comprising heads or representatives of the various sectors and divisions within the FGV Group, the SSC is tasked with facilitating the mainstreaming of sustainability principles and practices throughout FGV and ensuring the effective implementation of FGV’s sustainability initiatives and programmes across its operations. We continue to apply a precautionary approach to how we manage our sustainability risks, ensuring we fully understand the issues at hand and developing appropriate action plans.
