Stakeholder Identification

Hsin Tung Yang references the AA1000 Stakeholder Engagement Standard (AA1000 SES) in its stakeholder engagement process. Through discussions among the six functional task forces under the Sustainable Development Committee, department managers, and employees, together with input from external experts, the Company conducted stakeholder identification and prioritization. As a result, eight key stakeholder groups were identified: customers and consumers, employees, government authorities, suppliers, shareholders and investors, local communities and public welfare organizations, inspection and certification bodies and trade associations, and the media.  

Channel Partner Management​

HSIN TUNG YANG has established the “Counter and Store Management Regulations,” which clearly define the principles governing personnel management, product management, sales management, and store management at retail counters. Penalties are also stipulated for violations. The audit mechanism covers three major areas and involves responsible units including area and station managers, duty supervisors, the Headquarters Audit Office, the Customer Satisfaction Team, the National Freeway Business Division, and the National Freeway Bureau. Through regular reviews, unscheduled inspections, and mystery shopper surveys, HSIN TUNG YANG ensures the service quality, operational performance, and overall operating quality of its channel partners.​
