Globe Telecom Inc. has started the pilot test for the GSMA Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Metrics for Mobile in the Philippines.
The ESG reporting framework provides a mobile-specific lens that simplifies and harmonizes disclosures while complementing universal reporting standards.
It was developed by Global System for Mobile Communications (GSMA) in collaboration with its partners and a working group of 20 mobile operators representing 45 percent of the world’s mobile connections.
Yoly Crisanto, Globe Group chief sustainability and corporate communications officer, expressed the company’s support for GSMA in its call for the adoption of the framework to facilitate the monitoring and comparability of ESG performance across the industry.
“We are proud to be among the first members of GSMA who have pilot-tested the new ESG Metrics for Mobile in our 2022 Globe Integrated Report. This reporting framework, the first of its kind in the mobile sector, demonstrates our commitment to fostering sustainability and responsible business practices,” Crisanto said.
“By utilizing common industry Key Performance Indicators (KPI) that address critical aspects of our operations, we aim to increase consistency and transparency while contributing to the overall betterment of the mobile industry,” she added.
