The Three Corporate Principles—Corporate Responsibility to Society, Integrity and Fairness and International Understanding through Trade - established early on in our company's history, have served as our core philosophy, inspiring MC to continually improve the way we address our economic, environmental, and social responsibilities around the world. The relevance and importance of these principles have only increased as we have entered the 21st century and it is vital that we continue to develop new sustainable business practices. To help guide us in these endeavors, our Environmental Charter, established in 1996, sets out guidelines for the pursuit of our goals. Mitsubishi Corporation supports the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and strives to promote human rights across our business operations. All our employees are our ambassadors, and it is vital that they understand and follow the principles and ethics of our company. In addition to the Environmental Charter, the Mitsubishi Corporation Code of Conduct sets out codes of behavior based on local laws and global standards such as environmental laws and regulations, the UDHR and the ILO Core Labor Standards. The Code has been distributed to all our staff around the world in English and Japanese (and in other local languages where requested). A safe and secure working environment is fundamental to business and is Mitsubishi Corporation's primary responsibility to its staff. To ensure that this responsibility is upheld, we continually seek to protect our personnel, property, information and corporate reputation from security threats. When and where high level security threats are identified in certain circumstances—for example, in times of social unrest or political turmoil—and where there is no acceptable alternative to manage risk, we may elect to employ armed guards. In such situations, all our security operations shall be in compliance with national legal requirements as well as international standards and will be in full support of the US/UK Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights.
