Introduction:
Delta Medical International recognises its responsibility to contribute positively to the world around us. This statement outlines our commitment to sustainable and ethical practices that benefit society and the environment and underlines to our dedication to integrating social, environmental, and economic considerations into every aspect of our business operations.
The business is driven by a commitment to excellence in healthcare innovation, guided by the belief that every patient deserves the highest quality of care. Our mission is to design and deliver medical solutions that improve patient outcomes and enhance the well-being of caregivers.
The company has a Code of Business Practice Policy that details how the business and its staff are expected to conduct themselves; much of that is summarised in this statement.
Business Ethics:
We are fully committed to conducting business with integrity and respect to all others. This includes:
- Safe and fair dealing with customers, staff and suppliers
- Respect towards our customers and the patients in their care
- Anti-bribery and anti-corruption practices
- Respect for human rights
- Protection of the environment
We will operate with integrity and transparency, ensuring that our products and business practices meet the highest ethical and regulatory standards. We are committed to sustainability, safety, and the well-being of our patients and the environment.
Corporate Responsibility:
The business will comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and ethical standards in all our business activities. We will provide training and resources whenever necessary to help employees and business partners understand and comply with these standards.
We maintain a zero-tolerance policy towards bribery and corruption. We will implement robust policies and procedures to prevent, detect, and respond to instances of bribery and corruption. We will also provide training and resources to help employees understand and comply with anti-corruption laws and regulations.
The NHS has a Policy for Standards of Business Conduct and Delta Medical International will always endeavour to consider and act in a way that helps to support all NHS staff in fulfilling the requirements of that policy.
Social Responsibility:
We are fully committed to equal opportunities and embrace diversity and inclusion at every level of our company.
We are fundamentally opposed to any practices that could constitute modern slavery or human trafficking and require the same of all our business partners.
We are fully committed to observing the human rights of everyone involved with the business, including staff, agents, customers, suppliers and the patients who are treated with our products.
We believe in giving back to the communities we serve. Through education, advocacy and outreach, we strive to make a positive impact on global healthcare providers and their staff, especially in neonatal, maternity and paediatric care.
Environmental Protection:
We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint through efficient use of resources, waste reduction, and recycling programs. Our initiatives include minimising packaging waste generation and re-use of materials wherever possible.
We strive to minimise energy consumption and reducing travelling wherever possible. We encourage the use of vehicles with low pollution characteristics. We only use transport partners with clear environmental responsibility policies and carbon neutral targets.
We aim to reduce the environmental impact of our products and services throughout their lifecycle, from design and manufacturing to disposal and recycling.
