It repudiates harassment of any kind and pledges non-tolerance of child and forced labor.

The SCREEN Group strives to act with fairness, honesty, and respect for human rights in its relationships will all stakeholders, including those working for customers and suppliers, local communities, and shareholders.

In addition to implementing internal training programs to prevent workplace harassment, we have made an internal hotline available to facilitate the reporting of and consultation regarding human rights abuses.
