Due diligence on human rights risks

To ensure effective implementation of human rights policy and assess its effectiveness in management, E Ink has promoted human rights risk due diligence by identifying, evaluating, and improving upon specific human rights issues that might arise in our business operations in order to safeguard the workers' human rights. After referring to specific guidelines and standards published by the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), the UN Global Compact (UNGC), the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and relevant sustainability-related evaluations for the material human rights issues, we have regularly conducted a full risk inventory by assessing each risk in accordance to its chance of occurrence and severity of impact to identify the location of human rights risks. We then proposed corresponding mitigation and compensation measures to alleviate the impacts of human rights issues on our operations while creating a happy and joyful workplace.
