"Supplier training: We take to heart our responsibility to educate our suppliers and make sure they are up to date with the latest international concerns. Acer holds the Supplier Conference for ESG each year. The conference is the time when we announce the global trend and targets that we expect our suppliers to meet, which is in line with international practice. At the conference, we communicate with our suppliers about the RBA Code of Conduct, major noncompliance of on-site audit and main global labor issues, such as the issue of conflict minerals. We will continue to communicate and cooperate with our suppliers in order to bring the collective strength of Acer's supply chain to bear on social and environmental issues. We are taking a more proactive stance and looking at the big picture as we investigate sustainable development issues that require our response."
