TOM Group released its fifth standalone Sustainability Report, outlining progress across governance, environmental, social and community metrics for the year ended 31 December 2025.
Governance and Strategy • A board-level Sustainability Committee met twice during the year and updated workforce diversity and artificial-intelligence policies. • Climate considerations are integrated into enterprise-risk management; external specialists supported a climate-scenario analysis covering short-, medium- and long-term horizons.
Environmental Performance • All three 2025 environmental goals were met: energy-efficiency upgrades, digital publishing expansion and recycled-content packaging. • Scope 3 screening was expanded to four categories; these emissions totalled 16,353 tCO₂e, representing 92 % of the group’s 17,687 tCO₂e footprint. • Scope 2 emissions dropped 69 % to 1,315 tCO₂e after divesting the Taiwan social-media business; data-centre power still accounts for 48 % of operational energy use. • Energy consumption declined 66 % year-on-year to 10,287.50 GJ. • Paper use fell 7 % to 4,658.90 tonnes, with digital titles now 46 % of releases, more than double the 20 % target.
Human Capital • The workforce stands at approximately 1,000 employees across Hong Kong, mainland China and Taiwan. • About 7,000 training hours were delivered, averaging 6.92 hours per employee; 100 % of staff and directors completed anti-corruption training. • Women constitute 72.2 % of staff, 55.3 % of management and 28.6 % of the board, all above market averages. • Eleven work-injury cases led to 35 lost days; no fatalities were recorded.
Community Engagement • Over 2,000 children’s books were donated in Hong Kong, and 11 advertising spaces were ceded to Taiwan charities. • Environmental awareness programmes included Earth Hour participation and recycled-red-packet drives.
Looking Ahead With 2025 targets achieved, TOM Group is drafting new goals covering 2026-2030 and will continue to refine Scope 3 measurement and energy-efficiency initiatives while monitoring carbon-pricing developments in key markets.
