The organization shares the value of international human rights rules including Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Labor Organization, The UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights and Equator Principles, and complies with regulations of Taiwan and all locations it operates in. After reviewing Taishin's operating model, we have identified employees, customers (including borrowers) and suppliers to be the most relevant stakeholders as far as human right is concerned. We have devised separate policies, statements and guidelines to serve as the ultimate guiding principle for human rights protection. In addition, we adopt communication, protection and supervision practices to secure the rights of all stakeholders, which provide the foundation of corporate ethics within Taishin.
