Respecting People @ Speeki
We Respect Human Rights
Respect for human rights is a fundamental value of Speeki.
Our company operates in multiple countries. Our customers, employees, shareholders and vendors represent virtually every race, national origin, religion, culture, political philosophy and language.
This diversity is the foundation of our business excellence and embodies Speeki’s respect for human rights and the dignity of all people. Where we have identified adverse human rights impacts resulting from or caused by our business activities, we are committed to providing for or cooperating in their fair and equitable remediation.
The Human Rights Policy applies to Speeki and its subsidiaries and is overseen by our Board of Directors.

We strive to maintain work environments that are free from discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, sex, colour, national or social origin, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression, political opinion or any other status protected by applicable law.
