Healthy and Harmonious Ecosystem

Huawei works with its customers, employees, local

communities, and upstream and downstream partners

wherever the company operates to deliver a fully

connected, intelligent world as we have promised.

In pursuit of this, we have embedded the company’s

core values, operational responsibilities, and social

responsibilities into our daily operations. We hold

ourselves to the highest standards. While sticking to

our core values of customer-centricity and dedication,

we care about our employees’ development and value

realization, contribute to the robust development

of local communities, and encourage suppliers to

fulfill their own responsibilities. Ultimately, we want

to promote healthy, harmonious, and sustainable

development within our industry.

Business Ethics

Trade compliance, cyber security, data and privacy

protection, environmental protection, and anti-bribery

are all common topics of discussion. This is because

these are the key areas we must get right in order to

foster a fair business environment and maintain order

throughout the business world. As far as companies

are concerned, these issues must be addressed if they

want to survive and thrive in the market.

We conduct business with integrity, adhere to
common business ethics, and observe all applicable
laws and regulations in the countries and regions
where we operate. This is a guiding principle for our
management team. Through ongoing investment,
Huawei has established a compliance management
system that covers our business and employees
worldwide. In line with the Group’s compliance
guidelines as well as local laws and law enforcement
practices, each Huawei subsidiary has identified and
evaluated its compliance risks, and developed and
implemented control measures to address them. We
have adopted a “one country, one policy” approach to
compliance management. Huawei values and works
hard to create a culture of integrity, and requires
all employees to comply with its Business Conduct
Guidelines. On this basis, each subsidiary has released
detailed employee behavior guidelines to ensure
employees incorporate compliance requirements into
everything they do.

Caring for Employees

Huawei operates in more than 170 countries and

regions. Outside of China, we prefer to hire local

professionals and work to build a diversified workforce.

All employees at Huawei, regardless of their gender,

race, ethnicity, or religious beliefs, are offered equal

opportunities to work, learn, and develop. We are

committed to creating a humane and efficient

workplace for employees, so they can enjoy a happy

and vibrant life while receiving reasonable rewards.

We value employee capability and career development,

helping them grow together with the company and

achieve shared success. Externally, we open up the

organization to outside talent, and explore ways to

unite the world’s best minds under a common purpose.

Internally, we fast-track the promotion of strong

performers and give them more growth opportunities.

We also provide differentiated development paths

for employees to inject vitality into the organization.

Building on our technologies, knowledge, experience,

and years of success in the ICT industry, we continue

to invest in and collaborate with educational and

training institutions, industry associations, and other

partners to build a platform that will enable healthy

development within the ICT talent ecosystem.
