The company places importance on respecting and protecting the human rights of all stakeholder groups throughout the value chain, adhering to international standards such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and fundamental principles of the International Labour Organization (ILO). We conduct business responsibly, transparently, and without discrimination in human rights, both within the organization and in the supply chain.
The company is committed to treating employees equally and fairly, without discrimination, and does not tolerate forced labor, child labor, or human trafficking.

Additionally, the company has implemented Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) processes to systematically identify, assess, and manage human rights risks, covering prevention, impact mitigation, and remediation, while providing safe and transparent complaint channels to ensure business operations align with human rights principles and international standards continuously.
Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) Framework
To ensure business operations align with human rights policies, the company has established Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) processes to identify, prevent, mitigate, and monitor impacts that may arise from business operations, both within the organization and throughout the value chain.
The company conducts ongoing analysis and assessment of human rights risks, with emphasis on vulnerable groups such as migrant workers, temporary workers, and workers in the supply chain, utilizing information from various sources, complaints, and surveys from relevant agencies to develop appropriate preventive measures.
| Level | Risk Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | Very High Risk | Risk causing critical negative impact to employees, violations of Thai law or core ILO conventions, such as corporal punishment, human trafficking, or discriminatory practices that could result in severe human rights damage and legal liability for the company. |
| 4 | High Risk | Risk causing severe negative impact on human rights, may not meet company international standards, unacceptable in the industry even if not violating Thai law, but likely to impact employee human rights. |
| 3 | Medium Risk | Risk causing moderate negative impact on human rights, may affect employee rights to some extent and could lead to reputational damage if not properly addressed. |
| 2 | Low Risk | Risk causing low negative impact on human rights, controllable through appropriate monitoring or processes. |
| 1 | Very Low Risk | Risk with minimal or no impact on human rights, with existing laws and best practices providing adequate protection. |
The company establishes measures to prevent and mitigate human rights impacts that may arise from business operations:
- Develop human rights policies and practices and apply them to partners and subsidiaries
- Encourage partners and third parties to accept human rights policies through the Supplier Code of Conduct
- Provide training and awareness building for employees on human rights standards
- Encourage partners and external parties to comply with labor and human rights standards throughout the value chain
The company has a system to monitor and evaluate human rights performance continuously to ensure that established measures can effectively reduce risks and impacts. Monitoring approaches include:
- Collecting information from internal controls and stakeholders
- Providing forums for complaints or suggestions related to human rights
- Using evaluation results to continuously improve policies and processes
Information from monitoring is used to support management decision-making and develop more effective human rights management.
