Communication on Progress - 2012

Oct 16, 2013 6:00 AM ET

As a 2011 signatory to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), Huntsman pledged to uphold the UNGC's Ten Principles supporting human rights, fair labor practices, environmental protection and anti-corruption, and promised to make the Ten Principles part of our business strategy and daily operations.  In 2012, we published updated Business Conduct Guidelines (BCG) for all stakeholders -- associates, communities, customers, business associates and investors.  The BCG and its companion, the Huntsman Vendor Code of Conduct, specifically and clearly articulate Huntsman's values, particularly as they relate to human rights, fair labor practices, the environment and anti-corruption.  We are pleased to offer the newly issued Huntsman Business Conduct Guidelines as evidence of our proress in aligning our corporate policies and management systems with the UNGC's Ten Principles.
