At Dempsey Corporation, governance is the framework that ensures our sustainability principles are put into practice with integrity, transparency, and accountability. In 2024, we published our first Annual ESG Report, formalizing our commitment to transparent disclosure across Environment, Social, and Governance pillars. This report outlines our policies, metrics, and progress toward clear goals, and reinforces our alignment with international standards such as the UN Global Compact and OECD Guidelines. Our ESG Committee, formed in late 2023,continues to provide oversight, coordinate audits, and ensure that sustainability practices are embedded across every level of the organization. We believe strong governance builds trust, drives ethical performance, and secures long-term value for all stakeholders.
