DL continues to pursue efforts to turn climate change response initiatives into new business opportunities. In the petrochemical sector, DL is diversifying its business portfolio to center on eco-friendly materials. In the construction sector, it has become the first company in Korea to embark on standard design for Small Modular Reactors (SMR).

The group is also striving to create safer workplaces. Through risk assessment of business sites, DL identifies potential hazards and has reinforced on-site safety management systems using smart technology and an integrated control center.

DL Group has also conducted a double materiality assessment to manage issues that have a significant impact on sustainable management. In the environmental and governance areas, five key material issues were selected. In the environmental and social areas, workplace safety, climate change response, and sustainable supply chain management were identified as key topics. In the governance area, enhancing the corporate governance system as well as ethics and compliance management were selected as key issues.

DL Group stated, "Moving forward, we will continue to strengthen our overall competitiveness in sustainable management, including our response to climate change and health and safety. We plan to transparently disclose relevant achievements and information to stakeholders."
