All 大洋 employees are expected to uphold the values of honesty and integrity in all their activities. The ethical standards to be met are set out by our holding company in the Spectris plc Code of Business Ethics that have been integrated in and amended by the Corporate Values and Principles of the 大洋 group.

The Spectris plc Code of Business Ethics includes the basic principles oriented to international standards and conventions and to be adhered to by all employees of the group - including 大洋. A comprehensive training program for all employees and regular refresher trainings shall help to ensure that we follow those principals, act ethically correct and uphold our values when making decisions.

• Honesty & Integrity
• Reliability & Accuracy

... are the values that determine our activities as a company.

As an international company group spread over the globe it’s a particular obligation to advocate for consistent standards. Hence the stipulations of Spectris plc and our Corporate Values and Principles naturally also cover requirements regarding

• Environment, and
• Human Rights.

In addition the elements of Corporate Social Responsibility are integrated in our extensive system of principals, regulations and standards that we are practising since many years.

大洋 is also committed to Human Rights and decent working conditions in its supply chain. An audit programme based on SA8000 is applied to all significant suppliers located in lower cost manufacturing areas in order to provide assurance in this respect.
