At the GLORY Group, we have promoted various activities based on our concept that implementation of our Corporate Philosophy itself is the CSR of GLORY. We revised our Corporate Action Guidelines in 2013 to express our stance for promoting our CSR activities. We also understand that the concept of our Corporate Action Guidelines and that of the UNGC shares the common value, and accordingly we decided to sign on to the UNGC.
Also, taking the opportunity of our participating in the UNGC, we will pursue to realize our Corporate Philosophy through implementing various activities based on our Corporate Action Guidelines, and will also take initiatives to fulfil our responsibilities as a corporate citizen by promoting activities related with various global issues.
