Social: When you hire an employee, what do you see in that person. When the focus has to be on ESG, you should look only at talent. Your company should give equal opportunity to everyone and you should hire employees without any discrimination of color, caste, religion, and region. Also, the employees should be promoted based on their talent. 

Governance: You should improve the governance of your company to bring transparency to the process. Your investors want to see you working.

Make sure that your company provides equal opportunities to all. Your human resource department can improve the social structure of your company. Or you can hire a consultant to advise your human resource department. 

Third thing is to optimize the governance of your business. Since the focus has to be on ESG, you should make your business transparent. You should let your investors see through your system so that they can have confidence in your company and system. Similarly, your employees want you to make the human resource management transparent. Also, clients want you to be transparent. With governance, you can improve your performance on ESG.
