Price Western Leather Company Ltd (“Price Western”) is committed to conducting its business according to the highest standards of honesty and fairness. This commitment to observing the highest ethical standards is designed not only to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations but also to earn and keep the continued trust of clients, personnel and business partners.<\/strong><\/p>

Overview & Guiding Principals<\/h3>

1) Price Western will not conduct business where the business environment is such that operating in an ethical, legal way is not possible. This applies to relationships with customers, suppliers, contractors, government representatives and partners. No amount of profitability is more important than the reputation and
goodwill of Price Western.
2) All employees must work together to maintain Price Western\u2019s reputation for integrity. All employees are expected to act in the best interest of Price Western and to promote and protect the good name and reputation of Price Western. The Policy provides a means to a better understanding of the principles and standards that must govern all of Price Western\u2019s business activities.
3) It always has been and continues to be the intent of Price Western that its employees maintain the highest ethical
standards in their conduct of Company affairs. Ethical behaviour is not always easy to define. However, fairness, honesty, respect and trust are the principal characteristics of ethical behaviour. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to an \u201cemployee\u201d within the Policy refers to any employee, director, officer or designated agent or representative of Price Western (including a consultant, advisor or independent contractor) who acts on behalf of Price Western. The essence of the Policy is that each employee will conduct Price Western\u2019s business with integrity, in compliance with applicable laws and in a manner that excludes considerations of personal advantage.
4) Price Western has and always shall practice and promote care for the environment throughout each and every aspect of its operations. Price Western holds ISO 14001 Environmental accreditation and operating guidelines and procedures recognised by this accreditation are the cornerstone of its Environmental Policy.<\/p>

Compliance with Laws, Rules & Regulations<\/h3>

5) Obeying the law, both in letter and in spirit, is the foundation on which Price Western\u2019s ethical standards are built. All employees must respect and obey all local and national laws and the laws of any countries in which Price Western does business. Employees are expected to know and adhere to the laws applicable to the scope of their employment and thus should seek advice from managers or other appropriate personnel if they have questions about such laws.
6) Price Western supports the conventions of the International Labour Organisation (ILO) in relation to employment, freedom of association, safe and hygienic working conditions, child labour, wages, working hours, discrimination and inhumane treatment.
7) Price Western also supports the broader rights and freedoms set out in the European Convention on Human Rights and the Human Rights Act 1998.<\/p>

Corporate Communications<\/h3>

8) Price Western is committed to conducting business in an open and honest manner. All communications, whether internal or external, should be accurate, complete and forthright. These communications may include, but are not limited to, general internal reports, media releases, marketing and sales brochures, regular company reports, government filings and illustrations.
9) Price Western will provide accurate information when promoting its products and services. False or misleading claims concerning Price Western\u2019s products and services or those of Price Western\u2019s competitors are unacceptable. These same principles must be adhered to when responding to enquiries from customers, fellow employees, the media, governmental regulatory agencies and shareholders. Responses to such inquiries must be made in accordance with Price Western\u2019s policies and procedures.<\/p>

Accounting Standards & Communication<\/h3>

10) All accounts and records shall be documented in a manner that:<\/p>

i) Clearly describes and identifies the true nature of business transactions, assets, liability or equity; and properly and timely classifies and records entries on the books of account in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
ii) No record, entry or document shall be false, distorted, misleading, misdirected, deliberately incomplete or suppressed.

Employment Practices<\/h3>

11) Employees constitute Price Western\u2019s most indispensable asset. Price Western recognizes that the inherent value of this asset is reflected in the ability, integrity, knowledge and talent of its employees. To recruit and retain employees that reflect these values, Price Western\u2019s guiding principle will be to:<\/p>

i) Aspire to provide an environment where employees will adhere to the Policy and conduct themselves with fairness, honesty, integrity and professionalism in the performance of their duties and all of their business relationships, treating each other with respect and professionalism;
ii) Aspire to provide equal opportunity for all in recruiting, hiring, developing, promoting and compensating without regard to age, colour, non-disqualifying disability, gender, national origin, race, marital status, veteran status, religion or any other basis that is protected under applicable law; and foster a professional, safe and discrimination-free work environment, where mutual respect is the absolute minimum of behaviour expected from everyone.<\/p><\/blockquote>


12) It is the Company\u2019s policy to hire, evaluate and promote employees on the basis of their ability, achievements, experience and performance.<\/p>

13) Ethnic, racial, religious, sexual or any other type of unlawful harassment is unacceptable. Inappropriate or unwelcome sexual behaviour, either physical or verbal in nature, that interferes with and obstructs performance in the workplace violates Price Western policy and may constitute harassment, which is against the law. In order to provide an environment that is conducive to productivity and personal growth, Price Western
prohibits illegal workplace harassment of any kind, whether the harasser or the victim is a co-worker, supervisor, agent, customer, guest or supplier. Price Western\u2019s policy also prohibits retaliation against anyone who has made a harassment complaint.<\/p>

14) The laws affecting employment practices are complex and constantly evolving. It is critical that each supervisor maintain awareness of current legal developments and Price Western\u2019s employment policies by seeking appropriate advice of those within Price Western who are responsible.<\/p>

Suppliers<\/h3>

15) All suppliers are required to comply with this policy as a minimum standard. In addition they must comply with all national and international laws, regulations and standards applicable in their country of business. Suppliers will also ensure that, as far a reasonably practicable, their suppliers will , in turn, comply with this policy. Any supplier whose behaviour is found to be demonstrably at odds with this policy will be de-listed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
