Since 2025, Hsin Tung Yang has offered professional certification training for Corporate Sustainability Managers. Senior management took the lead, helping sustainability thinking spread across departments. As of September 2026, 26 employees had earned the Corporate Sustainability Manager certificate issued by the Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy (TAISE). They are now applying what they learned to food safety, product development, procurement, manufacturing, retail services, and talent management.

Why Does Hsin Tung Yang Invest in Sustainability Talent?

Sustainability is not the responsibility of a small group of specialists. From environmental management and food safety to product development, supply chain management, retail services, and employee well-being, ESG is closely connected to a company’s day-to-day operations.

Decisions made by every department can affect the environment, society, and corporate governance. That is why Hsin Tung Yang launched its Corporate Sustainability Manager training program in 2025—to make ESG a shared language that employees across departments can understand, discuss, and apply in their work.

How Is Sustainability Knowledge Applied in the Workplace?

Earning a certificate is not the finish line. It is the starting point for turning sustainability knowledge into meaningful business action.

Employees who have completed the training work in a range of professional fields. They are bringing what they learned into daily operations in the following ways:

• Food Safety: Integrating sustainability into food quality and risk management while improving transparency across ingredients, production processes, and product information. This makes it easier for consumers to understand where their food comes from and how its quality is managed.
• Product Development: Considering nutrition, clean-label formulations, environmental impact, and the dietary needs of different age groups from the early stages of product planning. This helps create products that balance taste, quality, and sustainability.
• Procurement: Looking beyond quality, cost, and supply stability to assess ingredient sourcing, environmental management, social responsibility, and supply chain risks. Hsin Tung Yang also encourages suppliers to strengthen their own sustainability practices.
• Manufacturing: Improving equipment and production efficiency through better management of energy, water, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste. These efforts help reduce resource use and environmental impact throughout the manufacturing process.
• Retail Services: Bringing sustainability into store operations, product communication, and customer service. Clear and accessible information helps consumers better understand product features and sustainability efforts so they can make more informed choices.
• Talent Management: Building a shared foundation of ESG knowledge through professional training and cross-departmental exchange. This improves communication and collaboration across different functions while gradually embedding sustainability into daily work and business decisions.

By involving employees across different functions, Hsin Tung Yang is turning ESG from specialist knowledge into a practical part of everyday business decision-making.

From Professional Training to a Company-Wide Sustainability Culture

Corporate sustainability requires both strong systems and the involvement of employees in every role.

Hsin Tung Yang will continue to develop sustainability talent, strengthen cross-departmental collaboration, and build ESG thinking into everyday operations. The goal is to ensure that every business decision gives greater consideration to the environment, society, and future generations.
