Go Green - Decoding EU’s Sustainable Business Strategies

自1970年代起，香港擁有優越地理位置及多聯式交通運輸網絡，作為全球重要的轉口貿易樞紐，長期以來憑藉高效的物流體系和自由港優勢，成為國際供應鏈的關鍵節點。然而，隨著歐盟、美國等市場的ESG（環境、社會、公司治理）法規趨嚴，香港的港口與物流業正面臨新的挑戰與轉型壓力。供應鏈企業需要重新尋求新的合作伙伴，供應鏈企業亦需要在內部制定新的政策及加強員工培訓，以迎接新的貿易挑戰及抓緊市場未來新的契機。否則，供應鏈企業將會面臨淘汰。

香港生產力促進局(生產力局)於2024年1月推出「ESG一站通」（ESG One)平台，透過整合評估工具、技術支援及培訓資源，為中小企業提供端到端可持續發展解決方案。配合新成立的「資源循環技術研究中心」，雙軌並行協助企業將 ESG 理念深度融入營運核心。

生產力局首席技術總監張梓昌今日透露，平台推出年半已吸引逾1200間企業，其中中小企佔比高達95%，並獲約190間機構支持。

張梓昌分析指出，當前中小企實踐 ESG 正面臨四大關鍵挑戰，分別為缺乏專業知識科技與資源、數據收集與報告困難、資金與成本壓力，以及對市場認知及曝光不足。

對此，他提出六點以全方位支持中小企的 ESG 轉型。六大核心支柱分別為 ESG 評估與藍圖規劃、數位信任與管治、專業 ESG 諮詢、綠色科技探索、資助計劃及人才培訓與商務機遇。

生產力局綠色生活與創新部總經理蔡劍虹進一步分享平台數據指出，在約1200間參與自我評估的中小企中，橫跨18個行業的企業於「商業道德」、「勞工權益」及「客戶責任」三大範疇表現突出。

其中，「商業道德」中有93%企業制定反貪腐政策，77%建立舉報人保護機制；「勞工實踐」中有91%企業設有勞動保障政策，84%提供基本員工醫療支援；「客戶責任」中亦有95%建立投訴處理系統，82%實施透明產品保固條款 。

針對中小企資源限制，張梓昌強調將採取「認知賦能」、「能力建構」、「技術落地」三階段支援策略，包括開辦 ESG 實務工作坊、提供國際標準認證培訓，以及協助企業申請綠色科技研發基金，全面降低轉型障礙。

內地正快速建立全面的可持續發展報告披露體系。在證監會指導下，滬深北三大交易所於2024年4月12日聯合發佈《上市公司可持續發展報告指引》（《指引》）。根據《指引》，特定上市公司需於2026年首次披露2025年度《可持續發展報告》。該《指引》標誌著內地資本市場正式邁入ESG強制披露時代，此舉不僅對大型上市公司提出更高合規要求，更將推動其上下游供應鏈全面升級。香港中小企作為供應鏈中的關鍵角色，可乘勢迎接全新機遇。憑藉香港在ESG資訊披露和監管方面的先發優勢，加上與內地語境具有高度的相似性，香港中小企可借鑑上市公司可持續發展報告及相關指引完善自身ESG措施，在上下游供應鏈合作中搶佔先機，實現可持續發展及市場拓展的雙贏局面，搶先「登陸」內地市場。
