Human Rights training and monitoring

In 2024, we continued to implement our Human Rights Policy and promote respect for human rights among employees and business partners as follows.

• We organised a workshop on Human Rights Due Diligence and Human Rights Risk & Impact Assessment, collaborating with external experts. This workshop provided an opportunity for employees across all departments, both domestic and international, to participate in identifying key issues, concerns, and related case studies. Participants also assessed the level of risk and opportunity at all levels of the organisation, including our own operations, subsidiaries, joint ventures, suppliers and contractors. The results were recorded in the Human Rights Risk Register, an essential tool for continuous monitoring and management of risks. This process is reviewed every 3 years to ensure alignment with evolving environments and risks, aiming to improve efficiency and readiness. The summary of results as follows;
  • 4 key human rights risk areas were identified, and 100 percent of relevant internal units were notified. Existing mitigation measures were reviewed and further improved to ensure effective risk management, as follows:
    1. Occupational health and safety (OHS) of employees and contractors - Enforced workplace safety protocols, health screenings, safety training, and incident reporting mechanisms.
    2. Cybersecurity and personal data protection - Delivered awareness training, strengthened data access controls, and implemented data privacy policies.
    3. Community standard of living - Strengthened local leader engagement, encouraged joint mitigation efforts with communities, and regularly monitored impacts.
    4. Working conditions of contractors’ employees - Conducted ESG and human rights risk assessments, worker interviews, and training on human rights and safety for contractors.
• We conducted training on “Creating Awareness on Human Rights: From Concept to Practice”, in collaboration with external experts, to help employees understand the meaning and significance of human rights within the business context and the potential impacts. The training emphasised the role of employees in promoting and respecting human rights. Employees learned from real-world case studies in the energy sector, focusing on the importance of human rights risk assessments to be applied effectively in their daily work. A total of 486 employees participated, and their understanding of human rights increased by 81.3 percent after the training.
• 100 percent of our employees participated in the training and passed the assessment on the Code of Conduct, which covers respect for human rights and non-discrimination.
• 100 percent of new suppliers acknowledged and accepted the Suppliers’ Code of Conduct and Guidelines for Sustainability, which covers commitments to human rights and non-discrimination.

In 2024, we did not receive any reports or complaints about human rights violations in our business operations; therefore, no remedial action has been taken. B.Grimm Power will continue to proactively assess and monitor human rights risks and impacts regularly, demonstrating its commitment to human rights for all stakeholders and ensuring the suitability of mitigation measures across the value chain.

Result of The Human Rights Risk and Impact Assessment

In 2024, B.Grimm Power identified 4 salient human rights issues through a comprehensive HRRIA across our value chain. These issues, rated as Extreme risks, reflect areas of highest concern and are disclosed together with relevant mitigation measures. It is important to note that a classification of "Extreme risk" does not necessarily indicate that a human rights violation has occurred. Rather, it reflects the potential severity and likelihood of impact based on forward-looking assessment.
