Reporting Center for Unethical Behavior

Report on corrupt activities, such as accepting bribes or lavish entertainment with POSCO FUTURE M employees.

Message

In 2003, POSCO FUTURE M announced our commitment to ethical business; since then, we have made multiple amendments to our Code of Ethics to enhance our practices.
Recently, we have redefined our core business principle: to integrate ethics into our business operations. The Code was revised to encourage responsible conduct and exemplary behavior among our staff. We acknowledge that integrity, fairness and trust are the three most valuable assets that make POSCO FUTURE M what it is today. These values will continue to support and guide us into the future.

We have set a vision to become a company that motivate the future movement with eco-friendly future materials. To fulfill this vision, we are expanding to global markets undeterred by challenging business conditions at home and abroad. This ambition compels us to meet the highest standards of business ethics.

By placing the utmost priority on ethics, we intend to join the ranks of the world’s most revered companies. As CEO, I will spare no resources to focus our attention and energy on what is needed to achieve that goal.

When ethics is pitted against profitability, our management philosophy compels us to choose the former over the latter. The moral high ground will govern our judgment and behavior as the guiding principle. Hence, we will adhere strictly to a zero-tolerance policy on bribery, embezzlement, misinformation and sexual misconduct.

Fellow employees,
We have a goal: to grow and prosper with all stakeholders. We want to become a partner of choice for customers, a preferred company for investors, and a vibrant workplace for employees. To achieve this vision, we must weave ethical behavior into the fabric of our corporate culture. We shall make every effort to establish the principle of integrity and transparency as the foundation of our ethical practices.
