Human Rights Management
LG Display has established 10 key human rights management policies that all employees must adhere to, drawing on global standards such as the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the standards of the ILO (International Labour Organization), and the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. These policies embody the commitment of senior management to realize the dignity and value of all stakeholders, based on a management philosophy that respects human dignity. Currently, these policies are in effect across all domestic and overseas business sites, and detailed guidelines have been established for each area to ensure their implementation for our employees and suppliers.
