Code of Conduct
Aberle Automation (Thailand) Co., Ltd.
The Code of Conduct of Aberle Automation (Thailand) defines the ethical and professional standards that guide our daily operations.
It serves as the foundation of our integrity, transparency, and responsibility — both internally among employees and externally toward our business partners, suppliers, and the public.
We expect all employees and business partners to act in accordance with these principles. Suppliers and subcontractors are encouraged to adopt the same standards within their own operations.
Questions regarding this Code may be directed to the Corporate Compliance Officer at Aberle Head Office.
