ESG data table

Scroll to

- Please select -

CLP continually improves by managing, monitoring and reporting its ESG performance. These tables present a quantitative overview of the Group's 2022 financial and non-financial performance. The disclosures are selected from the GRI Standards, The Hong Kong Stock Exchange's ESG Reporting Guide, SASB Standards for Electric Utilities and ISSB's Exposure Draft of S2 Climate-related Disclosures, as well as other key performance data.

Detailed discussion of these metrics can be found in the corresponding Environmental impacts and Social impacts sections.

The 2022 data shaded in orange has been independently verified by PricewaterhouseCoopers. The assurance scope of past years' data can be found in previous Sustainability Reports.

  2. Labour supply refers to manpower supplied by contractor companies under labour supply agreements. Reporting is based on quarterly averages.
  3. Estimated service contractor full-time equivalent (FTE) is calculated based on the number of manhours incurred and region-specific average weekly working hours since 2019. Numbers in 2018 are re-stated to reflect region-specific working hours instead of weekly hours of 48 for all regions.

  2. Refers to the number of fatalities as a result of work-related injury.
  3. Starting from 2021, the unit is changed from the number of cases to the number of personnel.
  4. Refers to the number of fatal injuries per 200,000 work hours in the year.
  5. Rates are normalised to 200,000 work hours, which approximately equals to the number of hours worked by 100 people in one year.
  6. Starting from 2021, “Days Away From Work Injuries” replaces “Lost Time Injury”. Days Away From Work Injuries refers to the number of personnel who sustains work-related injury and is unfit to perform any work on any day after the occurrence of the injury. “Any day” is any calendar day which includes rest days, weekend days, leave days, public holidays or days after ceasing employment. It does not include the day the injury incident occurred. “Days Away From Work Injuries” excludes fatalities which were included in “Lost Time Injury”. Numbers prior to 2021 are the previously reported numbers for “Lost Time Injury”.
  7. Refers to the number of Days Away From Work Injuries and Fatalities per 200,000 work hours in the year.
  8. Refers to the number of personnel who sustains life threatening or life-altering work-related injury. It is a subset of Days Away From Work Injuries.

Numbers prior to 2021 are the previously reported numbers for “Occupational Disease”.
  11. Starting from 2021, “Lost Days” replaces “Days Lost”. “Lost Days” is the sum total of calendar days (consecutive or otherwise) after the days on which the work-related injuries and work-related ill health occurred. “Days Lost” accounts the working days instead of calendar days. Numbers prior to 2021 are the previously reported numbers for “Days Lost”.
  12. 19 out of 304 days were carried forward from one incident in 2020.
