ESG Policy

Playeum considers ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) factors in our activities such as by ensuring that they are environmentally friendly and sustainable, and maintaining high governance standards. 
 

• Environmental
  
  Inspired by the Singapore Green Plan 2030, we adopt sustainable practices across our organisation. We digitalise information and processes through electronic file management to reduce paper usage, prioritise the use of recycled materials in our programmes, and actively reuse, repurpose, and recycle wherever possible. Employees are also offered the flexibility to work from home, helping to reduce commuting and its environmental impact.
  
  In addition, staff are encouraged to conserve energy and resources by turning off lights and air-conditioning when leaving a room, unplugging devices when not in use, setting air-conditioning to 25°C or above, and minimising the use of disposable items during meals.

 

• Social
  
  We adopt a people-centric, strength-based approach in our collaborations, working closely with community partners to support the needs of vulnerable communities. Transparency and accountability are central to our operations, with information shared openly with stakeholders and the public through our annual report, newsletters, and social media channels.
  
  We also prioritise staff wellbeing by offering flexible work arrangements and organising staff events and team retreats, providing opportunities for bonding, self-care, and personal growth.
   

• Governance
  
  We are fully compliant with the Code of Governance for Charities and Institutions of a Public Character, as well as all relevant laws and regulations. Playeum also meets the disclosure requirements set by the Charity Council and the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), submitting all necessary information and documents in accordance with regulatory and statutory obligations.
