Reward for Reporting Ethical Misconduct
With the goal to build a sound corporate culture by preventing ethical misconduct, we reward those who report ethical misconduct.
We receive information about POSCO INTERNATIONAL employees and their unfair business practice, unreasonable demands made using positions of power and other ethical misconduct. Filed reports are kept strictly confidential.
For qualifying reports, cases are processed as quickly as possible; their outcome can be tracked through the channel used to file the complaint. Upon the request of the reporter, results can be provided by e-mail.
