As we work in all parts of the world, Emerson lives its commitment to protect and promote human rights that are essential to a healthy and vital commercial environment and to a broader society. This entails specific attention to particularly challenging issues and activities including:
Commitment to Humane Treatment
We do not allow or condone any form of harsh or inhumane treatment, including sexual harassment, sexual abuse, corporal punishment, mental or physical coercion or verbal abuse, nor do we allow managers to threaten treatment of this nature.
Prohibition of Child Labor
Our policies oppose child labor and we do not use child labor in any facility or business. Emerson has established a standard minimum age for employment that complies with or exceeds local legal requirements. We support the use of legitimate workplace apprenticeship programs that conform with laws and regulations. Emerson also prohibits employees under age 18 from performing hazardous work.
