Responsible Care is a specific voluntary commitment of the global chemical industry to continue improving their performance in regard to the environment, health and safety. At CCPG, we deeply believe that we must do our utmost to implement and respect human rights and workplace dignity. We regard this as a shared responsibility between ourselves and our supply chain partners. We adhere to internationally recognized sustainability and human rights guidelines, including human rights standards and initiatives such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work of the International Labour Organization (ILO), and Responsible Business Alliance (RBA). In addition, we continue to comply with laws and regulations in the locations where our factories and offices operate. Furthermore, we have formulated a CCPG Human Rights Policy and established various internal standards and operating procedures in accordance with the policy. The spirit of human rights is deeply rooted in the Group’s core value in order to fulfill our basic commitment as an enterprise. We also request our supply chain partners to follow the same commitment.
The CCPG Human Rights Policy applies to all types of labor, business partners, suppliers and contractors in the locations where the Group operates.
