CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Socially Responsible Supply Chain
uawei operates according to the social responsibility management
practices of the international standard of SA8000, integrating socially
responsible requirements into the verication, selection and management
of suppliers.
We have set up a supplier social responsibility verication program to carry
out systematic training of procurers and suppliers on SA8000, TL9000 and
ISO14000, to ensure that every link in our supply chain is in compliance with
published standards.
Huawei has drawn a clear green procurement roadmap to ensure our
suppliers meet all requirements of ecological design such as environmental
protection, energy saving and emissions reduction. Huawei prohibits the
purchase of materials containing poisonous or hazardous substances.
Across the world, we manage materials based on a unied platform
and select environmentally friendly materials to reduce dependence on
non-recyclables, to decrease the weight of products and to promote the
reusability of products.
Employee Growth and Security
ecognizing the loyalty of dedicated employees, Huawei has established
preferential policies in respect of career opportunities and compensation
packages. These benets, and others, are also incorporated into the
company’s human resources management principles, to ensure continued
employee contributions are responded to with meaningful rewards.
Huawei offers a Dual Career Development Path for all employees.
This program is comprised of a managerial and a professional path,
allowing every employee to choose an appropriate career goal for future
development. In order to create more growth opportunities for employees.
Huawei’s comprehensive training center (Huawei University) and various
training centers across the world provide training programs covering both
managerial and technical topics.
At Huawei, the Corporate Employee Security System consists of social
security and commercial insurance. The latter, which is not legally
compulsory, is fully funded by the company. In times of emergency,
employees can be transferred by chartered plane to the most appropriate
medical facility to receive medical treatment.
Huawei understands the importance of its employees’ well being, and pays
utmost attention to its employees’ physical and mental health. In addition
to providing open communication channels to respond to employee needs
