The goal of the Code of Conduct for MOTREX Partners is for partners who are important business partners of MOTREX to secure business sustainability
through corporate growth and social responsibility management based on this Code of Conduct.
All MOTREX partners should comply with this Code, and should also require all downstream supply chains that
provide them with assembly, parts, raw materials, and packaging to comply therewith.
If the actions recommended and required in this Code of Conduct are inconsistent with the laws of the relevant country,
the laws of the relevant country should prevail, and this Code of Conduct may change in the future in line with domestic
and international progress and trends of industry.
We hope that MOTREX and all of its partners will fulfill their social responsibilities, achieve sustainable and healthy performance,
and grow together by complying with this Code of Conduct through mutual efforts.

If the hazards cannot be adequately controlled using these means, workers should be provided with appropriate and well-maintained personal protective equipment.
Partners should identify, evaluate and manage employee exposure to chemical, biological and physical factors. Technical or administrative controls should be used to prevent excessive exposure of workers. If the hazard cannot be adequately controlled using these means, workers should be provided with appropriate personal protective equipment.

Partners should comply with MOTREX's environmental and quality management standards, and should identify compounds or other substances that pose a safety risk if released into the environment and manage the safe handling, movement, storage, use, recycling, reuse and treatment of these substances.
Partners should systematically identify, manage, reduce, and scrap/recycle solid waste and wastewater generated from industrial processes, sanitary facilities, etc. during operations.
Partners continuously monitor volatile organic compounds, aerosols, corrosive gases, dust, ozone depletion substances, and combustion by-products generated during the process by identifying their characteristics, and manage/treat them in accordance with local laws before discharging them.
All types of waste, including wastewater and energy, should be reduced or eliminated at the source of pollution or reduced or eliminated using methods such as production, maintenance, facility process changes, raw material substitution, conservation, and raw material recycling and reuse.
Partners should comply with all applicable laws, regulations and customer requirements regarding prohibitions or restrictions on certain substances, including recycling and disposal labeling.
When operating a business, partners' business activities should comply with all local laws and regulations, and MOTREX requires partners to maintain the highest level of ethical standards.
The highest standards of integrity should be required in all corporate business relationships. For partners, any form of corruption, extortion, embezzlement, bribery, kickbacks, or offering of gifts, including providing money or any other form of benefit to government officials for the purpose of influencing decision-making in violation of the law, is strictly prohibited. In addition, providing or accepting any means of obtaining unfair or inappropriate benefits is prohibited and monitoring and enforcement procedures are implemented to ensure voluntary compliance.

Partners prohibits the use of minerals and raw materials obtained through illegal, unethical or inappropriate manners that may result in serious human rights abuses, health or safety risks as well as environmental destruction such as depletion of water resources, waste, and pollution.
Partners should evaluate and identify the origin or source of minerals and raw materials distributed throughout the supply chain to confirm whether they were obtained through illegal mining (e.g., raw materials mined in the Congo), and ensure their legal mining.
Partners should identify, mitigate, and solve supply chain risks that exist during the mining and processing of minerals and raw materials. They should develop and implement policies on the origin and supply lines of minerals and raw materials from conflict and high-risk areas, and should comply with all applicable laws and international industry standards, including the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Business Conduct for responsible supply chains of conflict minerals and raw materials. Partners should not use minerals or raw materials that do not meet the requirements of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and should require their suppliers to do the same. They should ensure that their suppliers of minerals or raw materials comply with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and sustainability standards, and should be able to prove this as required by MOTREX.
Partners should adopt or establish a management system to ensure compliance with this Code as well as applicable laws, regulations and customer requirements, and should strive for continuous improvement.
Corporate policies on social and environmental responsibility that confirm partners' responsibility for voluntary compliance and continuous improvement express the partners' commitment to compliance and continuous improvement, and should be approved by management.
The company representative responsible for implementing the management system and related programs should be clearly identified, and top management should regularly review the status of the management system.
Applicable laws, regulations and customer requirements, including the requirements of this Code, should be identified, and a process should be established to monitor and reflect them in management procedures.
As a process to identify environmental, occupational safety and health, human rights and labor practices, and ethical risks related to partners' business operations, the relative importance of each risk should be determined, technical or administrative controls should be implemented in accordance with appropriate procedures to control the identified risks, and compliance with the Code should be confirmed on a regular basis.
