Again, product safety and consumer protection are part of ESG. In fact, they are core components of the “Social” pillar of ESG.
Employee safety and occupational health are also major ESG considerations, especially in industries that involve manufacturing, construction, extractives, energy, logistics, and heavy industrial operations.
An important governance component of ESG includes executive compensation and board independence, alongside gender diversity, anti-corruption policies, whistleblower mechanisms, cybersecurity governance, data privacy, and ethical business conduct.
There are also ESG issues around human rights, labor practices, community relations, supply chain traceability, responsible sourcing, modern slavery risks, and even AI governance.
So when companies are asked to report their ESG activities, it doesn’t simply mean “talk about the environment.” It means companies are expected to disclose how they manage environmental risks, treat people, govern themselves responsibly, and create sustainable long-term value.

@SophiaAlenkhe@yehhmisi Keep trying but reflect on what you could have done differently. There are still opportunities out there but positioning is key. Don't waver, don't stop upskilling, your own will come. Just don't stop.
