Respect for Human Rights

Policy

Based on the laws and regulations of each country and region, we respect basic human rights in accordance with international norms

Why is it important?

In recent years, a number of human rights issues have emerged in business, including child labor or forced labor at suppliers and the leakage of personal information of customers and employees. For this reason, there is growing interest among the international community in how business activities affect human rights. Business activities that respect human rights represent one vital element of a company’s social responsibilities.

Daikin's Approach

Daikin has established a human rights policy that requires respect for fundamental human rights across its entire value chain based on an understanding of all international norms on human rights along with the laws and regulations of each country and region.
The Group Conduct Guidelines set forth provisions on respect for diverse values and views on work and provisions that prohibit discrimination based on race, ethnicity, and gender, along with ban child labor and forced labor.
