[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Hyung-gil] NH Nonghyup Life announced on the 8th that it has obtained ISO14001 certification, the highest level of the environmental management system of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), to practice environmental management.

ISO14001 is an international standard certification for environmental management systems established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is awarded to companies that have established procedures and organizations such as management processes for implementing environmental management and continuously strive to improve.

Nonghyup Life is actively promoting eco-friendly management, including expanding eco-friendly investments such as solar power and fuel cells, establishing a paperless work environment, and conducting ESG employee campaigns. To save energy, it has fully replaced LED lighting in the headquarters building and is operating a lighting control system. It has also practiced environmental management by completely replacing work vehicles with eco-friendly vehicles by 2024.

In addition, in October, following the NH Financial Group's declaration of support for TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures), Nonghyup Life completed the measurement of carbon emissions to implement the TCFD recommendations. A group-level TCFD implementation disclosure report, including the establishment of carbon emission reduction targets, will also be published.

Kim In-tae, CEO of Nonghyup Life, said, "As issues related to environmental management continue to increase, all employees of Nonghyup Life will work together to practice sustainable environmental management that meets global standards, using this certification as an opportunity."
