However, SK hynix devoted 37% of SK group\u2019s total indirect contribution to economy which accounts approximately 20.8000 trillion won.<\/p>\n<p>Social performance of business activity increased 29% from a year ago due to the improvement in \u2018life quality of employees\u2019 and the expansion of support for partner companies. Last year, SK hynix implemented various benefits such as \u25b2Happy Friday \u25b2Increase in parental leave \u25b2Family friendly vacation system to balance work and life of employees.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the company\u2019s efforts to vitalize the domestic semiconductor ecosystem by fostering \u2018technological innovative companies\u2019 every year and strengthening technological cooperation to localize material and equipment contributed to social performance of business activity.<\/p>\n<p>In the area of environment, however, negative impact increased by 9%. \u201cAs semiconductor production increased last year with company\u2019s all-time high annual revenue, resource consumption and greenhouse gas emission naturally increased. But, such negative result was somewhat offset by development of low-power products, adoption of greenhouse gas reduction facilities and renewable energy migration including Green Premium System,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, SK hynix expanded the measurement scope of social value to supply chain for the first among SK group affiliates. This is due to company\u2019s judgement that creating SV and enhancing ESG management capabilities in the entire ecosystem beyond the company was essential to fulfill various ESG reinforcement demands from domestic and global stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a result of consulting with 13 partners* in various industries, including material, equipment, logistics and environmental service, a total of 1.4698 trillion won social value was created in 2022. With this year\u2019s evaluation, it is meaningful that partners have set up self-sustaining management system for SV and ESG data,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: italic; color: #555;\">*<strong>Included partners<\/strong>: DAEDUCK ELECTRONICS Co., Ltd \/Dong Woo Fine-Chem Co., Ltd.\/MiCoCeramics Ltd.\/Veolia Industrial Development Korea\/SIMMTECH Co., Ltd.\/WONIK Materials Co.,Ltd.\/WONIK HOLDINGS CO.,LTD.\/Eugene Technology Co.,Ltd.\/ KCTECH CO., LTD\/ KoMiCo Ltd.\/ Techwing, Inc.\/ PNS Logis Co.,Ltd.\/ Hana Micron INC.<\/p>\n<p>The partners above agreed that they would continue to put efforts onward to create more social values by upgrading the management system.<\/p>\n<p>Kim Youn-wook, Vice President for Corporate Sustainability Management at SK hynix, said, \u201cthe company will continue to work together with various stakeholders, including its partners, to have positive impact in the semiconductor ecosystem and the society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About SK hynix Inc.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SK hynix Inc., headquartered in Korea, is the world\u2019s top tier semiconductor supplier offering Dynamic Random Access Memory chips (\u201cDRAM\u201d), flash memory chips (\u201cNAND flash\u201d) and CMOS Image Sensors (\u201cCIS\u201d) for a wide range of distinguished customers globally.
