DSD firmly believes that sound corporate governance is not only the bedrock of sustainable development, but also the foundation for achieving our vision, mission and values. Since our establishment, we have endeavoured to establish and maintain a good, solid and sensible framework of corporate governance in the interests of the public. We operate within a well-defined governance structure, continuously adapt and improve our sustainability management strategies in light of our experience, international developments and stakeholders’ expectations. In addition, we disclose our corporate governance principles and practices openly and fully to uphold our credibility and reputation.

Under the leadership of the senior management, DSD has established a sustainability management structure to address various topics specific to sustainable development, and to provide appropriate recommendations as well as supervise the related initiatives. We also actively adopt suitable international standards and management systems and invigorate our management approach with innovative ideas. Risks are properly managed and multiple channels are in place to enhance interaction with all stakeholders, and for us to address their feedback on our development, enable us to improve our sustainability performance continuously.
DSD has begun establishing and implementing management systems in line with international standards since 2002. To date, we have put in place an integrated management system made up of multiple systems that cover the aspects of quality, environment, and occupational safety and health. During the year, the ISO 9001 Quality Management System and ISO 14001 Environmental Management System were upgraded to the new standards of ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 successfully. An internal review will also be conducted on the OHSAS 18001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System with a mission to facilitate smooth transition to meet the requirements of the new standards of ISO 45001:2018 before the deadline in March 2021.
Since 2013, DSD has been implementing in stages an Asset Management System (AMS) to enhance management of our facilities. In July 2019, most of DSD-owned sewage treatment works (STWs), sewage pumping stations (SPSs), and stormwater pumping stations, passed the certification audit for ISO 55001 AMS standard, making us one of the first government departments to obtain such accreditation.
