Upholding the UN Global Compact’s Ten Principles
In 2008, OMRON declared its support for and signed up to the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), which are universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor standards, the environment, and anti-corruption. Accordingly, OMRON joined the Global Compact Japan Network (GC-JN), a local Global Compact network. Since then, OMRON has been working as an active member of the GC-JN. In 2011, OMRON dispatched its representative to GC-JN to serve as the chief secretariat and support the network’s administration.
OMRON will continue to uphold the UNGC’s ten principles and sincerely put them into practice in order to meet the expectations of stakeholders.
