Radwell International Human Rights Policy
1. Policy Statement
Radwell International and its global subsidiaries (collectively “Radwell International”) is committed to conducting its business with honesty, integrity, and respect for the human rights of all individuals. We believe that business can only flourish in societies where human rights are protected and respected. This policy outlines our commitment to upholding human rights in our relationships with our employees, suppliers, customers, and the communities in which we operate.
2. Our Commitment to International Principles
Our policy is guided by internationally recognized standards, including the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Labor Organization’s Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Where national law and international human rights standards differ, we will follow the higher standard; where they conflict, we will adhere to national law while seeking ways to honor the principles of internationally recognized human rights.
3. Key Commitments
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: We are committed to a work environment free from discrimination and harassment. We provide equal employment opportunities to all applicants and employees regardless of race, color, religion, gender, age, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or any other status protected by applicable law. The basis for recruitment, hiring, placement, training, and advancement is qualification, skill, experience, and performance.
Prohibition of Forced Labor and Human Trafficking: We prohibit and will not tolerate any form of forced, bonded, or involuntary labor, including debt servitude and human trafficking, within our operations or supply chain.
Prohibition of Child Labor: We are committed to the abolition of child labor. We prohibit the hiring of individuals under the legal minimum working age in the jurisdictions in which we operate, or under the age of 18, for any hazardous work. We support legitimate workplace apprenticeships, internships and other similar programs that comply with applicable laws and regulations.
Safe and Healthy Workplace: We are dedicated to providing a safe and healthy workplace. We operate in full compliance with applicable safety and health laws and are committed to minimizing the risk of accidents, injury, and exposure to health risks for all employees and contractors. This includes low negative environmental impact, no dangerous noise emissions, extreme heat or cold, and ample access to drinking water, sanitation, and safety and/or first aid stations. The Health & Safety Team will coordinate the policies and procedures to ensure and mitigate risk.
Workplace Security: We seek to prevent any acts or threats of violence in our workplaces. Individuals who engage in violence or threats of violence may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment, as well as possible criminal prosecution.
Data Protection and Privacy: Management, suppliers/vendors, and senior staff shall protect personal data and respect the right to privacy. This means that employees, personnel, and customers’ personal data should be collected, used, and processed responsibly and lawfully. The organization shall implement appropriate safeguards to protect personal data against unauthorized use and disclosure.
Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining: We respect our employees' right to join, form, or not to join a labor union without fear of reprisal, intimidation, or harassment. Where employees are represented by a legally recognized union, we are committed to establishing a constructive dialogue and bargaining in good faith.
Wages, Benefits, and Working Hours: We compensate employees competitively and comply with all applicable laws for wages, work hours, overtime, and benefits.
Supplier Conduct: We expect our suppliers and business partners to adhere to principles consistent with our own. Our Supplier Code of Conduct requires our suppliers and business partners to uphold the human rights of their workers and to operate in an ethical and responsible manner.
4. Implementation and Due Diligence
We are committed to identifying, preventing, and mitigating any adverse human rights impacts related to our business activities. We will conduct human rights due diligence to assess and address risks in our operations and supply chain. This includes integrating human rights considerations into our standard business processes, providing training for relevant employees, and continuously evaluating our approach.
5. Governance and Reporting Responsibility
Our leadership is responsible for the implementation of this policy. We are committed to creating workplaces where open and honest communication is valued. Any employee, supplier, or other stakeholder can report a human rights concern or potential violation through our established grievance channels, including options for anonymous reporting, without fear of retaliation. We are committed to investigating all reports promptly and taking appropriate corrective action. Annual review and audits will be conducted to ensure continued integrity, efficacy, and updates to the Human Rights Policy.
