Introduction

Compliance Program, CP

For corporations, a compliance program is a set of norms and principles ensuring the autonomous observance of all laws and regulations pertaining to fair trade and makes it possible to eliminate in advance risks associated with violations of relevant laws and regulations. Since becoming the first company in the pharmaceutical industry to adopt a compliance program in 2007, Ildong Pharmaceutical has declared its commitment to ethical, transparent, and trusted management practices, received the Trusted Management Award six years running, and remained unwaveringly committed to earning and maintaining the trust of its customers.

3 Principles of Compliance

The company may not engage in any activity that is compensatory in nature or considered excessive in comparison to social norms and must disclose with absolute transparency all its activities.

    This is Vice President Cho Seok-je, and I am Ildong Pharmaceutical’s compliance manager.

    Ildong Pharmaceutical has for long time now been working hard to develop and supply superb pharmaceuticals under the vision of serving as an elite organization contributing to the health and happiness of humankind. However, just as important as manufacturing products of the highest quality is to us is respecting the law, doing business the ethical way, and walking the righteous path.

    As I am sure you are already aware, a compliance program is a set of norms and principles all members of the organization must uphold and practice in order to ensure full compliance with all relevant laws and regulations and is today an essential and irreplaceable component of a company’s survival and success.

    Ildong Pharmaceutical, in recognizing the importance of compliance, introduced our very own compliance program as a show of the company’s commitment to ethical management in July 2007 and have since remained focused on melding compliance into the very core of our corporate culture.

    The company’s organizational structure was amended in July 2014 to place the compliance unit directly under the control of the CEO and give it even greater independence. That same month, we also held a ceremony in which the CEO declared his personal commitment to compliance and all employees read out loud, signed, and submitted compliance pledges.

    We have also established new regulations and revised existing ones to present a clear code of compliance conduct to our employees and introduced monitoring and training programs to make the necessary changes and improvements to our standard operating procedures at risk of noncompliance.

    “Compliance is a requirement and not a choice,” our CEO once said, and we will continue to share this belief and strive to uphold the three compliance principles. We will rigorously hold those who violate the company’s code of conduct or any of the relevant laws or regulations fully accountable by taking punitive actions while rewarding those who practice, defend, and promote our rules and policies on compliance in order to incorporate compliance as an essential part of our culture.

    Ildong Pharmaceutical’s continued growth and success rest in the hands of individual employees, our recognition of the importance of ethics and compliance, and our willingness to make the right decision each and every time. Thank you.
    Sincerely,
