HTC's Code of Conduct is a guideline to provide high ethical
standards for all employees in conducting HTC business activities.
All employees of HTC Corp., including branches and subsidiary
companies, must follow these ethical standards regardless of the
employees' position, grade level,
and location. This Code includes three major sections: the
General Moral Imperative, Vendors/Suppliers and Customers
Relationship, and Conflict of Interests.
The General Moral Imperative section requires that HTC commits
to providing a safe and healthy work environment and equal
opportunities, and that it establishes a behavioral code for the
treatment of knowledge about the company's assets/properties/
information.
The Vendors/Suppliers and Customer Relationship section
requires that HTC commits to maintaining a fair, legal, and long-
term relationship with its vendors/suppliers and customers to the
benefit of all parties.
The Conflict of Interest section describes the behavioral rules for
employees in situations of divided interest.
This Code is superior to any other local regulations except certain
mandatory laws/acts issued by the local government. In such
cases, the Talent Management Division should submit the specific
local laws/acts to Corporate Talent Management Division in
order to waive this specific regulation of the Code in that location.
Otherwise, any violation of HTC Code of Conduct and applicable
policies may cause disciplinary action up to and including the
termination of employment. The employees are responsible for
understanding and complying with the HTC Code of Conduct, as
well as other applicable HTC policies/rules.
