In the current changing global business environment, Clarion GB Ltd. has recognized the requirement of companies to maintain high ethical standards and an increased sense of social responsibility.
In recognizing these changing environments, in October 1997, Clarion GB Ltd., set up their “Corporate Philosophy” to be the cornerstone of the company management. In brief, the Philosophy requires that business activities of the company must always maintain good relationships with the various stakeholders of Clarion, such as customers, shareholders, business partners and employees. In addition, the Philosophy requires that Clarion establish a global Corporate Governance System.
This means that each individual employee shall not merely maintain public order, but must conduct him or herself with good faith, having our Corporate Philosophy in mind. Employees must also have a sincere sense of value and ethical standards required of him or her not only as a good member of Clarion, but also of society.
On July 1, 2003, Clarion GB Ltd., established a Compliance Program to put our “Corporate Philosophy”, which has been the basic concept for our activities for a long time, into practice. At the same time, Clarion established this Guiding Principles of Conducts and Behaviours (herein after called “the Principle”) as a means to describe and carry out the basic foundations for our responsibility to the society and corporate morals. The following document, Guiding Principles of Conduct and Behaviours, will apply to all employees of Clarion GB Limited.
