Supply chain management
Enhancing responsible
procurement
ACC is committed to a sustainable supply chain. We ensure that our suppliers are compliant with applicable laws and regulations and their performance on sustainability criteria is assessed, as a part of our Code of Conduct.
Our business code of conduct has additional supplier compliance criteria which require suppliers to comply with all applicable anti-corruption laws and regulations. There is a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of bribery, corruption, extortion and embezzlement. Suppliers must ensure fair and decent working conditions for their employees and employ children below the age of 18. Suppliers’ employees are required to be paid as per the local rates prevalent at their manufacturing location, or the minimum wage stipulated by national law, whichever is higher, and should be eligible to receive benefits from social security schemes as per accepted national legal and labour standards.
ROAD SAFETY
Road Safety is a focus area for ACC and involves
driver welfare measures like rest shelter, high quality
food, recreation facilities, etc. for their comfort and
well-being. To build stronger trust and belongingness
among ACC’s driver community, initiatives like
Vidyasaarathi scholarship and support for enrolment
into various government schemes for their children
have been undertaken. Moreover, the Company has
facilitated vaccination drives at our sites for the
driver community.

This recognition has encouraged our partners to up their performance and enhanced our goodwill with our suppliers.
