Corporate Governance
Kao Chemicals Europe conducts its business in a fair and honest manner, acting in accordance with laws and ethics and responding to society's expectations.
Kao Chemicals Europe devotes all its efforts to improving the effectiveness of corporate governance in line with its values and corporate philosophy "The Kao Way".
Human Rights
Human rights are fundamental rights and, for this reason, KCE strives to build a society in which no person suffers prejudice or discrimination. The Code of Conduct clearly stipulates the need to respect human rights and to ensure that all Group companies systematically and permanently guarantee the rights of children (and the right to decent work) and reject organized human crime in all its forms.
Integrity line
All employees are able to report and consult on compliance issues when necessary.
The main objective of the ethics channel is to provide staff with a communication tool to report conducts that contravene the company's code of conduct.
Contribution to the SDGs
Kao's ESG vision is based on the concept that the company's activities must be designed with the aim of contributing to the well-being of all people, trying to achieve sustainable growth and social development, all without renouncing protection of the planet.
