Employees have an affirmative obligation to report known or suspected violations of ZOOK’s Ethics and Integrity Policy.
ZOOK is committed to creating and maintaining an environment in which all employees are treated with respect and differences are highly valued. At ZOOK we work to foster an inclusive environment that provides equal opportunity to our employees, customers, suppliers and the community. By creating a company culture that is free of harassment or discriminatory treatment of any form, every employee can have the opportunity to contribute fully to our business success.
At ZOOK, the health and safety of each individual is of primary importance. ZOOK is committed to practices that generate safe workplace actions, conditions and procedures, and we continually work to develop and maintain a safe and healthy operating environment. ZOOK is a responsible corporate citizen, protecting and conserving the natural environment. We comply with all accepted environmental standards, meeting and often exceeding applicable regulatory and legal requirements. We are continually improving our environmental performance, working to minimize the creation of solid and liquid waste and eliminating other practices that could have a harmful effect on the environment.
All employees are responsible for safeguarding ZOOK’s assets from misuse or misappropriation, whether those assets are intangible, such as business information and intellectual property, or tangible, such as equipment or supplies.
Employees are required to keep accurate records and provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosures in the periodic reports filed by ZOOK with regulators and in our public communications.
ZOOK is often entrusted with confidential or proprietary information by customers and other business interests. This information is safeguarded in the same manner as ZOOK’s information
By protecting confidential and proprietary information from unauthorized disclosure, we not only protect valuable company assets, we also help ensure compliance with insider trading laws. Misuse of ZOOK information, and a violation of the law, is insider trading; when an individual uses material nonpublic information acquired in the course of employment to buy or sell stock or other securities. It is unethical and unlawful to use such information or to disclose it to others who might use it in buying or selling such securities.
Employees must avoid conflicts between personal and ZOOK interests. If actual or apparent conflicts are unavoidable, legal guidance should be sought on the best course of action, with full disclosure of any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict.
All employees, including agents and representatives of ZOOK, will comply with all applicable laws in every country in which ZOOK does business. This policy prohibits the company; its employees, directors, and officers from making offers of, or payment to, directly or indirectly, any domestic or foreign official, political parties or candidates, to create an improper advantage to obtain preferential governmental treatment. Advisors (i.e. agents, consultants, or intermediaries engaged to assist in developing, expanding or maintaining ZOOK’s business) will be appointed, managed and compensated as determined appropriate at the time by ZOOK senior management.
