Environmental Management

While developing and promoting application of green products, Computime attaches great importance to the environmental management of its products' production processes. Not only do we produce green and energy- saving products, but also make every effort to reduce the environmental impacts arising from the production processes. Computime has put in place an environmental policy and a Quality & Environmental Health and Safety Manual. All production plants are certified with the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System. EHS team is set up in each plant to supervise the implementation of environmental policies.

Computime identifies environmental factors that have significant impacts or are expected to have significant impacts on its business activities. We have formulated the Environmental Factors Identification and Evaluation Management Procedures and Environmental Policy, Targets, Indicators and Environmental Management Program Procedures to stipulate specific steps to be taken for implementing relevant control measures. Each department carries out identification and evaluation at least once a year. Relevant departments are responsible to establish target indicators and management methods for the following year on the key environmental factors and regularly review the achievement of the targets.

Resources Consumption and Conservation

The composition of our energy usage includes electricity and natural gas used in plants, offices and staff dormitories, as well as fuels consumed by company vehicles. The EHS team is responsible for implementing energy management work, regularly inspecting and maintaining energy-using equipment to ensure the equipment is in good condition. Through our internal publication Computime EHS Newsletter, we have informed our employees of work requirements related to environmental protection.

During the Year, the total energy consumption was 33,864 MWh, of which electricity consumption amounted to 32,535 MWh, accounting for 96.1% of energy consumption. The energy consumption intensity was 10.38 MWh per million Hong Kong dollars revenue, 8.58% increase compared to that of FY2019.

We focus on improving the efficiency of use of resources in our daily operations by adhering to one of key priorities in our environmental policy - "Conserve resources, reduce energy consumption, and promote resource recovery and recycling".

• Switch off electrical and electronic appliances when they are not in use

• Set air conditioning temperature at not less than 26 degrees in summer and not more than 20 degrees in winter

• Switch off the lightings when daylight is sufficient during day time

To manage energy consumption in the course of operation efficiently, we engaged a professional consultant which is a third party to assist the Company to build an energy management system. During the Year, we have taken a number of completed and on-goingenergy-saving measures, including the application of heat pumps, air compressor exhaust heat recovery, replacement of LED lightings and other retrofits. Among them, the air compressor exhaust heat recovery project in our Dongguan plant was completed during the Year. The air compressor exhaust heat is used to heat up dormitory water, reducing energy consumption of the heat pump when producing hot water for domestic use. It is expected to reduce the heat pump electricity consumption by 54,000 kWh per year. Its production line is undergoing a ceiling installation project which will reduce one-third of space after completion and hence will reduce electricity consumption of air conditioners.

  • Natural gas data from our overseas offices are collected starting from FY2020.

12 COMPUTIME GROUP LIMITED

Environmental Protection (continued)

During the Year, Scope 1 direct greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions were 350 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e), and Scope 2 indirect greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions were 27,064 tCO2e. The total greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions were 27,414 tCO2e, with an intensity of 8.40 tCO2e per million Hong Kong dollars revenue.

Major part of water consumption is attributable to plants and staff dormitories. Water usage from production includes air-conditioning cooling water, exhaust gas processing water, etc. We conduct daily inspections on water pipes, faucets and valves, and promote water-saving philosophy to our employees. A water-saving project was implemented during the Year, in which a new water treatment system was installed to reuse production water as cooling water for the plant's centralised air conditioning, reducing consumption of fresh water.

The total water consumption of Computime for the Year was 351,063 cubic meters, with intensity of 107.6 cubic meters per million Hong Kong dollars revenue, a 20.46% increase compared to that of FY2019. There was no issue in sourcing water that is fit for purpose.

We encourage employees to practise green office initiatives, including setting up printers for double-sided printing, reducing printing volume and single-sided paper printing, reusing envelopes, and avoiding the use of disposable products.

Emissions Control

Computime regularly reviews environmental impacts during the production process, striving to reduce emissions of air pollutants, wastewater, waste and noise. We have formulated the Environmental Protection Monitoring Procedures to ensure that all pollutants to be discharged externally are regularly monitored for compliance with laws, regulations and Company standards. Environmental engineers in the EHS team are responsible for formulating and implementing the Environmental Emission Monitoring Plan, which includes internal, external and government department monitoring. The person-in-charge of the Monitoring Plan is required to review and update the Monitoring Plan and points of monitoring at least once a year, or whenever there are major changes in production processes or launch of new regulations.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE REPORT 2019/2020

Environmental Protection (continued)

An online monitoring system has been installed at the plant's exhaust gas outlet, to facilitate daily monitoring of operation of the exhaust gas treatment facilities. During the Year, we continued to push air pollution reduction and have completed the installation of 5 sets of boiler exhaust gas treatment systems. An ultraviolet ("UV") photolysis facility is also added to the organic pollutant treatment system to further reduce emissions of organic pollutants. During the Year, our air emissions included toluene from our plants' production, amounting to 590 kg, as well as sulphur oxide, nitrogen oxide and particulate matter from vehicle exhaust, which amounted to 1.80 kg, 85.61 kg, and 6.58 kg, respectively.

Regarding wastewater discharge, Computime has set up wastewater treatment facilities in the plants. All industrial wastewater is treated and reused instead of being discharged externally. Domestic sewage is legally discharged into the municipal sewerage network.

We have set up a Solid Waste Management Procedure to manage and control processes of waste generation, storage, transportation, recycling, and disposal. Solid waste is categorised into hazardous waste, general waste and domestic waste, which are collected and handled separately. We have established a Hazardous Waste Management Committee to organise and formulate a hazardous waste management system, ensuring that hazardous waste is managed and disposed in a manner compliant with applicable laws.

Hazardous Waste

  • Waste listed in the National Hazardous Waste Inventory or identified as hazardous solid waste according to the national hazardous waste identification standards and identification methods
  • Use hazardous waste collection barrels or original packaging for storage, with hazardous waste labels displayed
  • Store hazardous waste in specific waste warehouses and record the inventory
  • Select qualified hazardous waste disposal companies and transporters to transfer and dispose of hazardous waste

General Waste

  • Solid waste not listed in the National Hazardous Waste Inventory or identified as non- hazardous solid waste according to the national hazardous waste identification standards and identification methods
  • Use garbage bins to collect general industrial waste
  • Classify and transfer waste according to categories of metal, wood, plastic, electronic appliances and paper
  • Entrust qualified suppliers to recycle the recyclables, and cleaning workers in the industrial area to clean up the non-recyclable waste

Domestic Waste

  • Solid waste generated in daily activities or activities that provide services for daily life, and solid waste that is deemed to be domestic waste by laws and administrative regulations
  • Use household garbage bins for collection
  • Cleaning workers in the industrial area to clean up and transport

Employee Rights and Welfare

Computime is committed to protecting employees' rights and has zero tolerance to unethical labour practices. Our Employee Handbook and Code of Conduct stipulates clearly regarding employees' rights, working conditions, training and development, benefits and remunerations, and health and safety. We respect the fundamental rights of employees such as freedom of association and the collective bargaining rights. Employees are empowered to delegate the authority to represent their interests in a responsible way. Opinions and concerns can be expressed through representatives in the labour union.

We acknowledge customers' expectations on managing working hours of employees. The working hours are now controlled at a level agreed by our key customers. Employees work overtime only if required and on a voluntary basis. Overtime work during rest days and holidays is compensated by overtime pay and compensation leave in accordance with local employment laws.

Computime respects each individual by creating an equal and diversified working environment free of any discrimination or harassment. We strictly forbid any forms of discrimination.

Employee Communication

Computime strives to maintain effective and open communication with its employees. We provide employees with timely information on business results, product performance, customer relations and employee achievements. Communication channels are designed to encourage open dialogue with employees to understand their concerns.

We facilitate bilateral communication in several ways, such as announcing company events and activities through the bulletin board and collecting employees' opinions through the suggestion box. Regular employee activities and meetings are organised, enabling employees to strengthen internal communication and achieve work-life balance. During the Year, Computime organised different types of employee activities including Mid-autumn Festival celebration, Christmas Party, talent show and table tennis competition.

We recognise the importance of labour unions for both employees and the management to express their concerns. Labour representatives are elected by union members at the factories. A committee is formed by the factory management to meet with labour representatives, addressing employees' concerns. Dedicated personnel have been assigned to follow up on the requests. During the Year, we replaced the beds in the dormitory and improved the quality of meals provided in response to employees' requests.

Prohibition of Child Labour and Forced Labour

Computime strictly prohibits the use of child and forced labour across its operations. We comply with relevant local and international laws and regulations for prevention of use of child labour of age under 16 and the prevention of any forced labour. To prevent the employment of child labour, we have put in place a standard working instruction that describes remedies to be implemented if use of child labour is discovered. During the recruitment process, all candidates must present their identification documents in compliance with the statutory age requirement.

The employment contract is voluntary and is signed by both the employer and the employee. Monthly inspection is conducted by the Human Resources department to check whether child labour exists in the Company. In addition, we request all suppliers and subcontractors to prohibit the use of child labour through explicit instructions or purchase agreements issued by the Procurement department, which also serves as one of the criteria for selection and evaluation of suppliers and subcontractors.

During the Year, Computime was not aware of any non-compliance of relevant laws and regulations6 that has a significant impact on Computime relating to compensation and dismissal, recruitment and promotion, working hours, rest periods, equal opportunity, diversity, anti-discrimination, and other benefits and welfare, and the prevention of any child and forced labour. There were no reported cases of child or forced labour in the Year.

Training and Development

Computime is committed to providing practical training and career development opportunities to its employees, necessary to equip them with necessary knowledge and skills, and for staying competitive in a constantly evolving business landscape. We have formulated an annual training plan according to the needs of Computime's development, employee job qualifications, questionnaires on training needs and the Personal Development Management System ("PDMS") for personal development planning.

During the Year, there were 32 work-related incidents and the number of lost days due to work injuries was 648. There were no work-related fatalities reported.

We strictly comply with relevant laws and regulations7 related to occupational health and safety. During the Year, we were not aware of any non-compliance of relevant laws and regulations that has a significant impact on Computime relating to the provision of a safe working environment and protection of employees from occupational hazards.

Safety Education and Training

The key to cultivating a safety culture is all about nurturing, educating and training individuals. Computime continues to strengthen safety training to improve employees' safety awareness, as well as to enhance their knowledge and skills regarding occupational health and safety. General safety regulations and operating procedures on industrial and fire safety, as well as fire handling procedures are clearly stated in the Employee Handbook. We conduct regular safety production education and training, ensuring employees are familiar with the safety production system and safety operation procedures. We provide new employees with health and safety induction training on work procedures and workplace hazards, along with workplace instruction on the use of personal protective equipment ("PPE"), emergency response and occupational health management.

During the Year, we arranged various safety training programmes for employees, covering topics such as traffic management, hand and power tool safety, hand and hearing protection, mechanical and electrical equipment safety, fire safety and emergency handling. We also enhance the communication of our OHS Policy and safety- related issues across the organisation through distributing Computime EHS Newsletter on topics including knowledge on chemical hazards, mechanical injury and fire safety.

Safety at Work

In the factories, most activities are exposed to health and safety risks of fire and chemicals. We have, therefore, developed Fire Protection Procedures and Chemical Storing and Handling Procedures to clearly define the responsibilities and ensure effective and proper handling. We strictly comply with fire management regulations, with fire extinguishing equipment and supervision by assigned personnel in place at all our operational sites. Daily inspection of chemical products stored in warehouses is conducted to ensure early detection in case of chemical leakage. Employees who need to be exposed to chemicals must receive chemical management and information training.

All safety related incidents must be reported, handled and investigated in a timely manner, according to the Incident Management Procedures. Rectification and preventive measures are taken to prevent recurrence of similar incidents. Employees who are engaged in mechanical operations, such as electric welding, operating electrical equipment and lifts, must be certified and get specific work licenses before they come on board.

Preventing Occupational Diseases

Employees must be equipped properly with the PPE provided before commencing work in production lines. We have established the Occupational Health Surveillance Management Procedures to prevent, control and eliminate occupational diseases. Regular and irregular health checks are arranged for employees to identify and eliminate any occupational health issues in advance. Employees who are exposed to hazardous factors are required to receive health assessments before they report for duty, during the employment and before they relinquish their responsibilities. Relevant documents such as health check records, treatment records and medical history are kept as occupational health surveillance files for future reference.

Emergency Management

During the Year, Computime further refined its emergency plan by implementing the Emergency Response and Management Procedures. Spearheaded by the Vice President of Manufacturing, the Emergency Rescue Organisation is responsible for ensuring rapid and effective control when emergencies occur. The emergency response evacuation steps and meeting points are clearly stated, with refinement of various types of emergency handling guidelines to ensure that emergency incidents, including fire, explosion and natural disasters such as typhoon and flooding, are handled in a timely and appropriate manner. We conduct evacuation drills at least twice a year for all operations, shifts and departments, which further strengthen our ability to address any emergency and preparation in daily operations.

Community Involvement

Committed to supporting the communities where it has operations, Computime actively takes on the responsibilities of a good corporate citizen and encourages its employees to participate and volunteer in charitable affairs. During the Year, Computime focused on education and community areas and contributed an approximate of HK$347,000, striving to create values to the community.

Children are the pillars of future society. Computime has always put children at the forefront in the provision of community service, with special focus on those from low income families and those with special educational needs ("SEN"). In upholding the motto "Volunteering - Go and Give, Gain and Grow", Computime has provided sponsorship and donation to three charitable institutions in FY2020. They are Heep Hong Society, Principal Chan Free Tutorial World and S.K.H. St. Christopher's Home.

Partnering with Heep Hong Society

For parents of SEN children under 6 years old, timely assessment and training for their children are always their top priorities. In view of this, Computime has supported the "Skills for Life" Bursary for children of Heep Hong's Supportive Learning Project since 2018. The Bursary subsidises SEN children from low income families, allowing them to receive timely and continued support, like developmental assessments by psychologist and participation in the "Read and Write Trooper Course" for children with suspected dyslexia. 62 children from low income families have benefited from our sponsorship.

Partnering with Principal Chan Free Tutorial World

We have high regards of Principal Chan (Mr. Hung Chan) in his aspiration to provide free tutorial services and other educational needs to the underprivileged children. It is never an easy task, but Principal Chan's sacrifice in stepping down as the principal of a secondary school has paid off. While giving out sponsorship to show our support, we have also promoted Principal Chan Free Tutorial World to all colleagues, including to new employees in HR orientation, to encourage them and their families and friends to register as volunteer tutors.

Partnering with S.K.H. St. Christopher's Home

Computime's sponsorship on Multiple Intelligence Program, conducted by HeartLink of S.K.H. St. Christopher's Home, consists of three scopes of service: developmental workshops, academic guidance and Christmas outdoor activity, targeting at children aged 6 to 12 from low-income families. The objective of the program was to provide a delightful environment where the underprivileged children can develop the logical-mathematical,verbal-linguistic, and interpersonal ability.
