Stakeholders Engagement

VSO follows the five major principles of stakeholder engagement standards (dependence, responsibility, attention, influence, diverse perspectives) to identify stakeholders and gather/review the key issues that are concerned. These stakeholders include government/regulatory authorities, shareholders/investors, employees, customers, and suppliers. To ensure the implementation and achievement of significant issues, VSO periodically conducts discussions on economic, social, and environmental issues, assesses the progress of various departments toward their goals, formulate future directions, and consolidate relevant outcome data.
