Diversity and Inclusion
At Shionogi, we all bring different strengths and perspectives to the table. This is part of what makes us such a strong Company. We comply with all laws designed to protect against the discrimination of indi- viduals based on our differences. We promote an open and inclusive workforce at all times.
Retention of Records
Our records management program enables us to pre- serve important information about the Company while complying with the laws that govern the preservation and disposal of records. It is important that we use care whenever creating, storing and disposing of records. This includes paying close attention when the Legal Department requests that we hold onto certain records that might be required for investigations or litigation.
