CONSERVATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT UEM Edgenta remained committed to environmental conservation in 2024 through several impactful initiatives aimed at restoring natural habitats and mitigating climate change. The company has also engaged in broader environmental conservation activities such as mangrove planting and beach clean-ups, fostering a culture of sustainability within the company and the wider community. As part of the #OneMillionTreesSG initiative by NParks Singapore, UEMS Singapore planted 10 trees to contribute to environmental restoration and enhance green spaces in the region. In addition, we organised a Mangrove Planting event in Taman Rekreasi Paya Bakau Kampung Sijangkang, Teluk Panglima Garang, where 20 saplings were planted to help restore the vital coastal ecosystem. Further promoting environmental stewardship, we launched the Adopt-a-Plant Programme, encouraging employees and local communities to participate in caring for plants, fostering a deeper connection to nature. A Beach Cleaning event was also held at Pantai Batu Laut, Tanjung Sepat, where volunteers worked together to clean up the coastline, reducing waste and protecting marine life. Fabric Recycling at Menara UEM In 2024, UEM Edgenta’s efforts towards sustainability were further demonstrated through the recycling of 717.7 kg of fabric at Menara UEM. This initiative highlights our commitment to reducing waste and promoting a circular economy within our operations. The Group Procurement and Contract Management (“GPCM”) department with the Healthcare division recycled 3,252 kg of condemned linen at Hospital Bahagia Ulu Kinta.
