Corporate Social Responsibility (cont’d)
In line with the increasing global awareness for environmental protection, we require all our business to operate in an
environmentally responsible manner. Our approach is to ensure strict adherence to environmental legislation governing
treatment of plant effluents and waste water, and maintain strict control to minimise the adverse impact on the
environment. Our facilities are accorded ISO 14001:2004 certification and we encourage all our operating subsidiaries
to adopt an environmental management system to manage their environmental performance.
Delivering outstanding performance requires exceptional people. At Frontken, we aim to create a culture of lifelong
learning, driven by a training and development programme to support continual self-improvement and help our people
achieve their potential. We sponsor students to compete in events to create a culture where students not only emulate
leaders in science, technology and engineering, but also realise the potential within them to someday be one of those
pioneers.
From a community prospective, we continue to support and promote education and training in the regions where we
operate, seeking to improve the future prospects of both future leaders of the world and our workforce, we extended
support to Singapore’s Institute of Technical Education by providing its students with skills and knowledge, as well as
exposure in global business trends and developments and different work practices cultural environments at our service
plants in Singapore and Malaysia. We also encourage employees’ involvement in efforts to help local communities.
