Japan: Sumitomo Osaka Cement has prepared a corporate human rights policy that recognises that respect for human rights is the foundation of competent management and a key part of the company’s awareness of social norms and corporate ethics. The policy acknowledges that the group’s business activities might have a direct or indirect negative impact on human rights through its business activities, and aims to reduce this. It aligns with the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the International Bill of Human Rights and the International Labor Organization Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. The company will distribute the policy internally and share it with its business partners.
