Our Policies
Business Responsibility policy
Our Business Responsibility Policy outlines our commitment to ethical practices, environmental sustainability, and social responsibility. It helps us build a positive corporate image, gain stakeholder trust, and ensure long-term viability. We provide accurate and balanced information about our products and services to healthcare professionals, customers, and the public. Our marketing, advertising, and sales practices prioritize the dissemination of truthful and evidence- based information.
Board Diversity policy
Promoting diversity in our board enhances decision-making, innovation, and reflects our commitment to inclusivity. It fosters a broader perspective and helps attract a wider talent pool. The policy includes goals for diversity representation, recruitment processes, and measures for board composition evaluation. We aim to have optimum composition in the Board in terms of diversity of thought, experience, knowledge, perspective, gender., ethnicity, country of origin, nationality, or cultural background.

This policy ensures fair compensation for employees, motivating and retaining talent. It helps align employee performance with organizational goals. JBCPL will be implementing a clawback provision as part of its remuneration policy, ensuring accountability, and aligning executive compensation with long-term performance and responsible corporate behaviour.

Suppliers Code of Conduct
This policy is designed to endorse conscientious sourcing, mitigate potential supply chain vulnerabilities, and endorse sustainable methodologies. The code encompasses a spectrum of vital criteria, encompassing environmental benchmarks for suppliers, procedures, products or services, the foundational human rights of suppliers, labor conditions and compensation, supplier health and safety protocols, environmental repercussions, anti-corruption measures, quality standards, and adherence to local legislation and regulations.

Our effective vigil mechanisms are a cornerstone of our commitment to transparency, integrity, and ethical conduct. They provide a platform for all our stakeholders, including employees, customers, partners, and suppliers, to report any concerns or instances of wrongdoing, ensuring a safe and confidential environment.
