The Environmental and Safety Governance Program by the Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand (IEAT) adheres to 13 global standards. These encompass the management of green spaces, drainage systems, the promotion of local and community economies, water management, industrial waste reduction, air quality management, and the regulation of volatile organic compound emissions (applicable to plants with VOC substances). Additional criteria focus on employee safety and health, accident and disaster management, handling of complaints against plants, quality of life for plant employees, quality of life and community surrounding the plants, and overall plant management. To achieve these goals, IEAT has established a network of local organizations and communities to participate in the inspection and supervision of environmental and safety standards at each industrial estate, fostering sustainable coexistence between communities and industries.
