At KAYAHAN, we consistently uphold the core values of equality and human dignity, recognizing that these are the cornerstones of a sustainable future. In an exciting development that reflects our dedication to these values, we are thrilled to announce the appointment of a Certified Human Rights Manager within KAYAHAN.
After completing his studies at Istanbul University, one of our esteemed colleagues was appointed Human Rights Manager. This appointment comes after the Supply Chain Duty of Due Care Act, which took effect in Germany at the beginning of 2023, mandating companies that export to Germany to have a designated Human Rights Manager. Our senior management embraced this requirement proactively, foreseeing its potential expansion throughout the European Union.
We remain steadfast in our ongoing efforts to create a sustainable future, which encompasses reducing our carbon footprint, adopting environmentally-friendly manufacturing techniques, and empowering women within our workforce.
