Management Approach
Jaymart Group Holdings Public Company Limited places great importance on addressing the energy crisis and its potential impacts by emphasizing efficient and sustainable energy management. The company aims to reduce the consumption of non-renewable energy and decrease dependence on external energy sources. This commitment aligns with the goals of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which seeks to combat global climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions resulting from human activities and excessive energy use.
The company recognizes the importance of waste management, not only within its business group but also extending to surrounding communities, to mitigate any negative impacts caused by corporate activities. Waste management has been integrated into the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) framework to ensure the company operates responsibly toward all stakeholders while reducing issues stemming from improper waste handling.
To minimize impacts on nature, the environment, and global warming, the company has initiated various projects, such as joining the "Care the Whale" network in collaboration with the Stock Exchange of Thailand to promote sustainable waste management. Furthermore, the company encourages employees to reduce waste generation at its source, practice waste segregation before disposal, and manage waste according to its type. This is coupled with supporting recycling and upcycling processes to increase resource value and reduce losses.
The company recognizes that improper waste disposal can have severe environmental consequences. Thus, it actively engages employees and executives in ongoing waste management initiatives to control and minimize impacts. Special attention is given to hazardous waste, such as electronic waste (e-waste), generated from business operations, which the company manages responsibly and in an environmentally friendly manner.
Moreover, the company seeks to create business opportunities through partnerships with like-minded collaborators by focusing on environmentally friendly products and services to deliver greater value to customers. This commitment not only enhances the company’s image as a socially and environmentally responsible organization but also builds customer trust in the brand and strengthens long-term customer confidence.
The company is dedicated to advancing strategies and innovations for more effective electronic waste management by studying and adopting best practices from both domestic and international sources. This ensures that the company’s business operations contribute positively and meaningfully to society and the environment.
Therefore, JMART Group Holdings Public Company Limited is committed to conducting business responsibly toward society and the environment. The company is aware of the impacts arising from electronic waste and products that have reached the end of their useful life, which cannot naturally decompose and may contain harmful chemicals. The company has thus established an electronic waste and end-of-life product management policy in line with international standards and aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), covering the following operational guidelines:
-
1Collaborating with partners and external organizations to serve as a center for collecting and managing electronic waste.
-
2Expanding electronic waste collection points to cover the company's operational areas nationwide.
-
3Sorting and consolidating electronic waste for delivery to organizations with expertise in electronic waste management.
