Respect for the Law
The company will respect the law in the countries and in the legal jurisdictions where it operates.
Honest and Ethical Business Conduct

No Tolerance for Harassment
The company is committed to providing a workplace free of bullying and harassment, whether sexual harassment or any other type of abuse. Bullying and harassment will not be tolerated.
Harassment may involve conduct of a sexual nature (sexual harassment). This can include any unwanted physical (e.g. touching), verbal (e.g. sexual remarks or propositions, suggesting the submission to or rejection of sexual advances will influence employment related decisions) or non-verbal conduct (e.g. unwelcome sexual advances or the display of pornographic or obscene material). The company will investigate any claims of harassment or abuse and will take remedial measures if necessary.

Customer Data
Customer data will be employed correctly. The company will treat and use customer data in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and with accepted business practices.
No Tolerance for Corruption
Bribery, kickbacks and corrupt practices will not be tolerated on any level.
Contribution to the Community
We will strive to make a positive contribution to the markets and communities which we serve.
