CSR Policy

Corporate Social Responsibility Policy

Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Policy refers to our responsibility towards our environment and the wider
communities. Our company’s existence is not solitary. It’s part of a bigger system of people, values, other
organisations and nature. The social responsibility of a business is to give back to the world just as it gives to us.
Our CSR Policy outlines our efforts to give back to the world 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.

COMPLIANCE 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

EXAMPLES OF CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
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. Stewardship will also play an important role.

Protecting people
We’ll ensure that we:

  • Don’t risk the health and safety of our employees and community.
  • Avoid harming the lives of local and indigenous people.
  • 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).

PROACTIVENESS
Donations and charitable giving
Our company may preserve a budget to make monetary donations. We have set up our own Charitable Foundation to facilitate
this.

These donations will aim to:

Alleviate those in need in our own local communities.

  • Support education and community events.
  • Support the homeless.
  • Support those with terminal or life changing illness.
  • Support the emergency services.

Volunteering
Our company will encourage its employees to volunteer. They can volunteer through programs organised internally or
externally. Our company may sponsor volunteering events from other organisations.

Preserving the environment
Apart from legal obligations, our company will proactively protect the environment. We conduct our business so that the
environmental challenges are managed as an integral part of current and changing business strategies.

Examples of relevant activities include:

  • Recycling
  • Conserving energy
  • Using environmentally friendly technologies
  • Commitment to our ISO14001 accreditation

Supporting the community
Our company may initiate and support community investment and educational programs. It can provide support to non-profit
organisations or movements to promote cultural and economic development of global and local communities.
