Social Responsibility Program
Alliance One is committed to a broad and proactive program of social responsibility in all of our worldwide operations. We firmly believe that it is our corporate duty to contribute positively across a wide range of issues and have adopted policies to reflect our commitment.
Among other measures, Alliance One:
- Actively supports a variety of programs to eliminate child labor, contributes to numerous charitable causes and demands non-discriminatory employment practices throughout our operations;
- Utilizes and teaches sustainable agricultural practices and acts as a good steward of the environment, working to reduce our carbon footprint and to preserve and replenish natural resources;
- Recognizes our obligation to be a responsible corporate citizen in each country in which we conduct business and that such undertaking extends to a wide range of social, environmental and economic concerns; and
- Conscientiously directs each and every employee to faithfully adhere to the laws and regulations of the countries in which we operate, and maintains an active and comprehensive Compliance Program to support and emphasize the importance of our commitment.
The Alliance One Social Responsibility Policy reflects both the intent and substance of our commitment and confirms our Company’s pledge to conduct our business with integrity and in full compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We believe that these principles guide all of our operations on a day-by-day basis.
