Our Social Compliance Policy

Our core commitment

As Plasti-med Plastik Medikal Ürünler San. ve Tic. Ltd. Şti., we are committed to protecting the rights of all our employees, ensuring fair working conditions and showing full compliance with occupational health and safety principles.

There is no gender, age, ethnic origin, religion, disability or any other discrimination in our workplace, and our priority is for our employees to work in a safe, fair and respectful environment.

We have absolutely no tolerance for human rights violations such as child labor, forced labor and discrimination. In all our business processes we act in accordance with national and international legal regulations and adhere to social compliance principles.

Working with an approach aimed at continuous improvement in social compliance, we are determined to carry out transparent and responsible cooperation with all our stakeholders. The views and feedback of our stakeholders are valued. Stakeholders are also expected to comply with legal and ethical rules.

Employment contract and working hours

Between our company and the person to be employed, we prepare an “Indefinite-Term Employment Contract” or, depending on the case, a “Fixed-Term Employment Contract” that complies with the workplace and the law and contains the conditions offered to the candidate. We have the employee who agrees to start work sign the contract and the necessary documents. We give a copy of the employment contract to the employee on request. Through orientation training, we convey to them all the rules of our company and those required by the job.

We set working hours in accordance with the applicable labor law and legal regulations. We carry out overtime only when necessary and on a voluntary basis. We compensate this work with pay or time off in line with legal rights. We make arrangements that protect work-life balance.

Our employees use their rest days and holidays within their legal rights.

Pay and personnel rights

In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations, in addition to their social rights, our employees are paid a fair salary sufficient to provide a decent life for themselves and their families, and overtime pay as prescribed by law, on time, regularly and in full at monthly intervals.

In our company, all personnel procedures for foreign national employees are carried out in accordance with the applicable legal legislation. Employment contracts are prepared in languages the employees can understand.

Occupational health, training and communication

We organize in-house and external training to minimize our employees’ occupational health and safety risks and to support their professional/personal development. In addition, the right to report any unfavorable working condition is guaranteed, and complaints are evaluated under the principle of confidentiality.

Open and continuous communication between employees and managers is encouraged. Within this scope, effective communication channels are created through which mutual feedback, suggestions and requests can be conveyed.

Right to respect and notification

The personality and dignity of all employees are respected. Psychological, physical and verbal harassment, mistreatment, inappropriate sexual advances or coercive practices are strictly not permitted. The use of alcohol and drugs in the workplace is prohibited; disciplinary provisions are applied to those who violate this.

Employees have the right to report any situation that violates social compliance requirements. These reports are evaluated within the principle of confidentiality, and employees who make good-faith reports are never retaliated against in any way.

Business ethics and ethical rules

Our company has absolutely no tolerance for situations contrary to business ethics, corruption, bribery, embezzlement or fraud. Employees cannot make any illegal payment or obtain any illegal benefit.

All gifts and hospitality must be within the scope of good-faith business relationships and kept at a reasonable level. Any gift or hospitality offered must be lawful, legitimate and compliant with company policies.

We respect our employees’ personal use of social media. Avoiding posts that breach the company’s confidentiality or harm its reputation, and compliance with laws and ethical rules in posts, are essential.

Employees avoid making decisions that place their personal interests above the company’s interests. Potential conflicts of interest are reported directly to management. Using company positions to obtain benefits for oneself or one’s close circle is strictly prohibited.

Our company adheres to the principles of fair competition in all its commercial activities. Competitor information is obtained through legal means and within ethical limits.

Environment and product quality

Environmental impacts arising from our activities are assessed and the necessary measures are taken. An environmentally responsible approach to production is adopted. Waste is managed in accordance with the law. Employees are made aware of these matters.

In all our products, based on customer satisfaction, we undertake to offer reliable and effective products that meet legal and sector quality requirements.
