human rights policy
We thrive to remain true to our core values and business principle. We adhere to rules and ethics compliance and is everyone’s responsibility. We seek to remain transparency and open dialogue, respecting the rights and dignity of all people, and we expect the same from all our partners.
We support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights and we make sure that we are not complicit in any human rights abuses. Our respect towards human rights is embodied in our Human Rights Principles, Code of Conduct and Partner Code.
Policy Commitment
Our approach to human rights is guided by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP), which outlines governments’ duty to protect human rights and businesses’ responsibility to respect them. Moreover, it emphasises the provision of appropriate and effective remedies in cases where human rights are breached.
We uphold the rights outlined in the International Bill of Human Rights and the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Consistent with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP), Handling System integrates human rights into its due diligence processes. This includes assessing potential and actual human rights impacts throughout our value chain, with consultations involving relevant stakeholders such as our employees and our partners.
In our human rights impact assessment, we prioritise the professional development of our employees and foster open dialogue with stakeholders. We are dedicated to transparently reporting on our efforts to address and mitigate any impacts on human rights that we may have.
NG Terminal ensures that all interactions with relevant entities such as governments, regulatory bodies, and public authorities adhere to the human rights principles outlined in this document.
NG Terminal is dedicated to enhancing its internal understanding of human rights through training and communication. Our goal is to offer human rights training to management and all employees who may encounter human rights issues within our supply chain.
Through training and familiarisation with potential risk areas, our employees are more adept at identifying risks and actual impacts during the due diligence process. This enables us to pinpoint situations where violations are most likely to occur.
