Our Social Impact company policy refers to our responsibility toward our people and our environment. Our company’s existence is part of a bigger system of people, values, other organisations and the environment. The social responsibility of a business is to give back to the world just as it gives to us.

 

Scope

This policy applies to our company and its subsidiaries. It may also refer to suppliers and partners.

 

Policy elements

We want to be a responsible business that meets the highest standards of ethics and professionalism. Our company’s social responsibility falls under two categories: 

compliance and proactiveness.

 

Compliance refers to our company’s commitment to legality and willingness to observe community values. Proactiveness is every initiative to promote human rights, help communities and protect our natural environment.

​

Legality

Our company will:

• Respect the law

• Honour its internal policies

• Ensure that all its business operations are legitimate

• Keep every partnership and collaboration open and transparent

 

Business ethics

We’ll always conduct business with integrity and respect to human rights. We’ll promote:

• Safety and fair dealing

• Respect toward the consumer

• Anti-bribery and anti-corruption practices

 

Protecting the environment

Our company recognises the need to protect the natural environment. Keeping our environment clean and unpolluted is a benefit to all. We’ll always follow best practices when disposing waste.

​

Protecting people

We’ll ensure that we:

• Don’t risk the health and safety of our employees and community.

• Support diversity and inclusion.

 

Human rights

Our company is dedicated to protecting human rights. We are a committed equal opportunity employer and will abide by all fair labour practices. We’ll ensure that our activities do not directly or indirectly violate human rights in any country (e.g. forced labour).

 

Preserving the environment

Apart from legal obligations, our company will proactively protect the environment. Examples of relevant activities include:

• Recycling

• Conserving energy

• Using environmentally-friendly technologies

 

Supporting the community

Our company may initiate and support community investment and educational programs.
