Human Rights

Approach

To achieve sustainable growth through ASV (The Ajinomoto Group Creating Shared Value), the Ajinomoto Group drives initiatives for international consensus for the SDGs and other environmental, social, and governance matters. In so doing, we recognize that all our business activities are built on a respect for human rights. We support international human rights standards, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and follow-up, and the United Nations Global Compact. In addition, we established our own Ajinomoto Group Shared Policy on Human Rights, to ensure that all Group company directors and employees respect internationally recognized human rights. We comply with international human rights obligations and relevant laws and regulations in the countries in which we operate.
We have established expectations for suppliers to ensure we accomplish our corporate social responsibility and contribute to sustainable societies. These expectations are described in the Ajinomoto Group Shared Policy for Suppliers, and we ask suppliers to understand and act in accordance with this policy.
