The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We set high standards for upholding key principles in what business we do, how we do it, and who we do it with.

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (The Code) reflects our deep commitment to ethical behavior, transparency, and responsibility. The CODE serves as the guiding principle for every decision we make, ensuring that our employees act with honesty, fairness, and respect in every interaction, whether with colleagues, partners, other employees or our esteemed customers.

Ethical conduct is not just a corporate policy; it is a promise we make to everyone. It is a reflection of our dedication to upholding the highest standards of professionalism while fostering a culture of accountability and trust. By holding ourselves to these principles, we strive to build a business that not only delivers excellence but also creates a positive and lasting impact on our community and society.

 

EVERY EMPLOYEE IS BOUND TO THE CODE AND MUST COMPLY STRICTLY WITH IT AT ALL TIMES.

 

Violation of The Code will not be tolerated and violators will face disciplinary action, which may include dismissal by SOTRANS GROUP. Where local laws are also breached, violators will be reported to the relevant authorities. In cases involving monetary losses, SOTRANS GROUP may pursue the recovery of such losses.
