IRPC Annual Report 2023

Management Approach IRPC has formulated human rights strategies and action plans with the aim to prevent human rights complaints from IRPC’s operations and to encourage cooperation with various agencies in implementing human rights projects in accordance with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP). In fostering our commitment to human rights, IRPC appoints dedicated individuals responsible for determining clear directions to support the implementation of human rights policy throughout the organization, promoting earnest and continuous efforts in human rights operations, as well as fostering the expansion of collaborative networks throughout the entire supply chain. At IRPC, upholding human rights is an integral part of business operations and is a responsibility shared by personnel at all levels, from the Corporate Governance Committee, the CEO and President, senior executives, and employees in all units in the organization. Policy IRPC has developed our Human Rights Policy in accordance with significant human rights frameworks at the international level. Introduced in 2017 and revised in 2020, the Policy has been officially signed and endorsed by the Board of Directors. Directors, executives, and employees across IRPC Group companies are to uphold labor and human rights laws, while honoring labor rights, women’s rights, children’s rights, and human dignity, as well as the liberty and equality of those certified by or protected under Thai and international laws. The policy extends to all IRPC employees, subsidiaries, Joint Ventures (JVs), and business partners (suppliers, contractors, customers), considered as stakeholders. It also encompasses other stakeholders, including local communities, residents, and society, addressing vulnerable groups (children, person with disability, elderly, women, pregnant women, indigenous people, migrant people and LGBTQIA+), who may be affected by the company’s operations throughout the value chain, with the aim to protect and respect human rights and provide compensation for any violations.
