United Nations Global Compact

United Nations Global Compact

We are one of the first businesses in Turkey to sign the UN Global Compact in the field of corporate sustainability. However, we had already put these principles into practice before signing the UN Global Compact. We carry out our activities in a responsible manner and in harmony with these ten principles in the areas of human rights, labour force, environment and anti-corruption.

Human Rights

  1. Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights; and
  2. Businesses should make sure that they are not complicit in human right abuses.

Labour

  1. Businesses should uphold the freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining;
  2. The elimination of all forms of forced and compulsory labour;
  3. The effective abolition of child labour; and
  4. The elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.

Environment

  1. The elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and occupation.
  2. Businesses should undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility; and
  3. Businesses should encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.

Anti-Corruption

  1. Businesses should work against corruption in all of its forms, including extortion and bribery.
