RTHK: SMEs urged to boost their awareness of ESG"

RTHK: SMEs urged to boost their awareness of ESG"

13/06/2025 04:33

The Hong Kong Productivity Council on Wednesday said small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) need to be more aware of the environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards used to evaluate a company's sustainability.

The council's chief technology officer, Dr Lawrence Cheung, said some SMEs neglect the social and governance aspects of ESG.

"Even for the environmental side, a lot of them may not know what kind of standards are available around internationally," he said.

"So a lot of them may just feel that they can just put some simple environmental measures and that would achieve a certain level of ESG."

Cheung said the council will hold personnel training courses as most SMEs lack the expertise to introduce ESG measures.

"Particularly a lot of exporters which are SMEs, more and more their buyers are demanding some sort of ESG elements in their operations," he said.

A new AI tool will also be introduced to help SMEs assess their ESG measures and compare their efforts with others in the industry.

"If they have some ESG elements particularly on the governance side, it actually gives them a lot more confidence in the eyes of investors, customers as well as the buyers," Cheung said.

生產力促進局約一年半前成立「ESG一站通」平台,支援中小企實踐數碼轉型和ESG策略,並為業界提供免費ESG線上評估、專業諮詢及技術支援等,至今已有1200間公司會員。

生產力促進局首席技術總監張梓昌指,經過一段時間的運作,發現中小企缺乏專業知識、不熟悉ESG概念,部分亦不理解國際標準要求。他又指,有企業缺乏內部專才或團隊規劃策略,未能夠善用科技提升ESG表現,亦有中小企在數據收集和資金方面有困難。 

在「ESG一站通績效卡」的18個行業評估中,只有約半數公司有定期收集廢物數據,而有尋求第三方做碳排放審核的公司更少於20%;但逾95%企業在保護顧客和產品責任方面,都有良好表現。
