Ethical Management
Daesung Fastener strives to earn the trust of all stakeholders through transparency, fairness, and integrity.
Ethics Principles
Transparency, fairness, integrity. Three simple but firm principles upheld for 36 years.
Transparency
Decisions, accounting, and transactions are openly disclosed and documented. Having nothing to hide is the strongest form of trust.
Fairness
Employees, partners, and customers are treated equally, with equal opportunity to do business. We do not abuse a position of advantage.
Integrity
We comply with laws and social norms, and reject improper requests, gifts, or favors. Even small principles are upheld without exception.
Code of Conduct
Standards of behavior and judgment for every employee.
Customer Trust First
Build trust by accurately understanding customer needs and meeting quality, price, and delivery commitments without exception.
Honest Dealings
Refuse all forms of misconduct — including gifts, entertainment, improper benefits, or false reporting.
Partnership with Suppliers
Reject unfair dealings based on superior position; respect the rights and intellectual property of partners.
Respect for People
Build a workplace free from discrimination, harassment, and sexual misconduct, prioritizing employee safety and growth.
Compliance & Social Responsibility
Comply with domestic and international laws and internal policies, fulfilling responsibilities for environmental protection and community contribution.
