Yum China has established a sustainability governance structure that extends from the Board of Directors to our operational teams. At the Board level, the Board and its Food Safety and Sustainability Committee consider matters related to sustainability at least annually in connection with our strategic plan. In 2024, the Food Safety and Sustainability Committee held two meetings to discuss food safety and sustainability-related matters.
At the management level, we have established a Sustainability Committee. The Sustainability Committee members meet quarterly to track the implementation of material initiatives, evaluate sustainability risks, and develop risk management
strategies and measures.
We are aiming to integrate ESG principles into our operational decision-making processes. Since 2021, ESG measures have been included in the key performance indicators to determine individual performance factors of our leadership team members. In addition, we have incorporated ESG targets into the performance metrics of the 2023 and 2024 annual Performance Share Unit (PSU) awards granted to our leadership team members.
