Board of directors mandate
Code of business conduct & ethics
Velan has always been dedicated to the principles of ethical and legal business conduct. Because of the continuing emphasis being given to ethical corporate conduct together with the increasing complexity of legal requirements, management believes it is appropriate to revise and distribute a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to all Employees of the Velan group of companies (the "Company").
Everything the Company does is the direct result of the decisions made or actions taken by the Company's Employees (the “Employees”). The conduct of our business, the manner in which we discharge our obligations to those with whom we deal, the effectiveness and the good reputation of the entire organization — all depend upon the quality of our personnel and their commitment to a high standard of ethical behaviour.
It is the responsibility of each Employee to respect and comply with this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Any breach of this Code may result in severe disciplinary measures.
