Foxconn, for the most part, reached its previous set of 32 long-term ESG goals issued in 2022 ahead of schedule, putting it on track to achieve its 2050 net zero emission target, while fulfulling social and governance commitments, including enhancing workplace wellness, improving sustainable supply chains and strengthening cybersecurity and board accountability.

Looking ahead, AI will be embedded in sustainable technology innovation goals, such as doubling the number of Foxconn's Lighthouse-standard factories and exponentially discovering IP-worthy applications to share with the industry.

For the first time, the Group will coordinate its corporate policies and supplier standards with 15 major international frameworks, including TCFD, SASB, and IFRS S1/S2. The company is committed to maintaining a top 10% ranking across five leading ESG rating agencies, including MSCI and Sustainalytics.

In bringing up the supply chain, the new goals include initiating a 100% sustainability audit of Foxconn's Tier-1 suppliers and promoting "short-chain, low-carbon manufacturing," aiming for over 80% local sourcing of institutional materials to strengthen operational resilience in global regional economies.

The health and safety of employees is a top priority for Foxconn. In this key area, goals require 100% coverage of human rights risk assessments at global production sites by 2030. For high-risk issues identified during assessments, remedial and mitigation measures will be implemented immediately. The company will continuously strengthen internal management and labor dispatch practices, and systematically promote annual audits to ensure compliance with the Group's Code of Conduct and accountability standards. Global high-risk contractors will all need to meet ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System certification.
