SK Gas Joins 'Zero Waste Day' on Blue Sky Day

Campaign to Reduce Waste in Daily Life
Practicing ESG Management through Voluntary Participation of Members

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Seoyoon] SK Gas announced on the 7th that it will conduct a 'Zero Waste Day' through the voluntary participation of its members in celebration of 'Blue Sky Day.'

This campaign was planned to widely raise awareness of the importance of air quality in line with the purpose of 'Blue Sky Day,' enhance understanding and interest in climate change, and continuously encourage the practice of 'New Corporate Spirit,' which has been ongoing since last month.

'New Corporate Spirit' is a concept proclaimed by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry last May, emphasizing the role of companies and encouraging participation to transform themselves in order to solve new crises and challenges such as digital transformation, climate change, and population decline together, thereby creating a sustainable community. To practice the New Corporate Spirit, SK Gas internalized ESG management by conducting an eco-friendly campaign during the vacation season throughout August with voluntary participation from its members.

The SK Gas 'Zero Waste Day' being held this time involves members engaging in various activities to reduce waste for one day. In the company cafe, members purchase drinks using personal tumblers, and in the cafeteria, they practice zero food waste. Paperless activities limiting printing and the use of recycled products are also carried out to minimize discarded paper and promote recycling. All activities will be photographed and posted on Instagram with hashtags such as #ertkorea and #ERTZero to actively participate in the 'ERT Joint Challenge.'

An SK Gas official stated, "Following the 'Eco-friendly Campaign during Vacation Season' held in August, SK Gas is striving to practice ESG management by having members participate in continuous eco-friendly campaigns including this 'Zero Waste Day.' We will continue to lead environmental protection activities in daily life and expand ESG management to become a 'Net Zero Solution Provider'."
