Human Rights and Modern Slavery Policy

‍
Introduction

OneSchema serves clients and communities around the world, working to achieve our purpose of connecting the world through seamless data transfer, and help companies get back to focusing on the meaningful problems they aim to solve.

‍

In support of this mission, we aim to align our actions with globally recognized human rights standards, including the International Bill of Human Rights, the International Labour Organization (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. These principles are integral to our business practices. We are dedicated to preventing any involvement in human rights violations and to protecting the rights of our employees and everyone we engage with, both directly and indirectly.

‍

‍
Scope

Our Human Rights Policy applies to all OneSchema staff and contractors.

‍

‍
Principles

We commit to:

• Actively avoiding any actions that may cause or contribute to negative human rights impacts through our activities, and, if such impacts arise, addressing them promptly and appropriately.
• Working to prevent or reduce human rights risks that are directly connected to our operations, products, and services, particularly through our business relationships.
• Supporting or participating in legitimate processes to remedy any human rights impacts that we have caused or contributed to.
• Continuously exploring ways to enhance the promotion of human rights within our operations.

‍

Policy

This sets out our position with respect to human rights and modern slavery, and complements our Code of Conduct.

‍

Our commitments, outlined below, are grounded in the International Bill of Human Rights and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work:

• Child Labor: OneSchema strictly prohibits the use of child labor and complies fully with all relevant laws. However, we support legitimate apprenticeships, internships, and similar programs that adhere to applicable laws and regulations.
• Modern Slavery: OneSchema will not engage in forced, bonded, or involuntary labor. Workers are not required to provide deposits or identity documents and are free to leave after giving reasonable notice, with all owed wages paid. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward human trafficking.
• Health, Safety, and Hygiene: OneSchema is committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for all employees.
• Discipline: We do not tolerate physical abuse, disciplinary threats, sexual or other harassment, verbal abuse, or any form of intimidation. Our disciplinary and grievance procedures are clearly documented in our Code of Conduct and communicated to all employees. Serious disciplinary actions are recorded and addressed.
• Freedom of Association and Employee Representation: OneSchema recognizes the right of all employees to form and join organizations of their choice, provided this does not conflict with their professional responsibilities or regulatory obligations. We value employee feedback, respect their right to union membership, and fully comply with legal requirements to inform and consult employees.
• Working Hours: OneSchema ensures that working hours are reasonable and compliant with legal and industry standards.
• Equality of Treatment: OneSchema is dedicated to eliminating discrimination in recruitment, training, and working conditions based on race, color, gender, age, religion, political opinion, nationality, sexual orientation, disability, or social background. We actively promote equality of opportunity and fair treatment.
• Employment Terms: OneSchema provides clear and written contracts outlining the terms and conditions of employment, ensuring that all work aligns with recognized employment laws and practices.
• Remuneration: We ensure that wages and benefits meet at least national standards and provide employees with clear, written information on their pay and conditions. OneSchema prohibits wage deductions as disciplinary action and is committed to ensuring equal pay and benefits for men and women performing work of equal value.

‍

Grievance and remediation

When a human rights violation is identified, OneSchema will collaborate with all relevant parties to seek remedies, compensation, and justice for the affected individuals. We will also investigate the root cause to implement measures that prevent future occurrences.

‍

Our Chief of Staff and CEO are available to support any staff member who encounters unethical behavior that cannot be addressed through the usual consultation process. Individuals who raise genuine concerns in the public interest will be safeguarded from any form of retaliation.

‍

‍
Implementation

Sol Chen, OneSchema’s Chief of Staff, oversees the company’s Human Rights Policy. Our Human Resources team will review the policy annually to ensure its relevance and effectiveness, making improvements as needed.
