Human Rights

Importance

(GRI 3-3a., GRI 3-3b.)

              Businesses faced heightened expectations regarding human rights, particularly through global developments in laws and operational standards. These include the European Union Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), which mandates businesses operating in the European Union to assess the social and human rights impacts throughout their supply chains. In parallel, the European Union Forced Labour Regulation (EU FLR) reflects a global trend toward more stringent enforcement of international regulations on businesses worldwide. This is complemented by Thailand’s National Action Plan on Business and Human Rights (NAP) Phase 2 (2023–2027) (Link), which promotes business operations that respect human rights alongside balanced economic development, with the aim of building confidence and achieving sustainable growth.
             OR recognizes that the activities of business and suppliers may be associated with negative impacts across multiple dimensions, including labor rights of employees, the rights related to adequate living standards of communities in operational areas, and consumers’ data privacy rights arising from the collection and use of personal data in business operations. Accordingly, OR is committed to conducting business in line with internationally recognized human rights principles by establishing human rights practices that cover both employees and suppliers, implementing a personal data protection policy, and providing independent and transparent grievance mechanisms. These measures enable stakeholders to report violations with confidence, while the information received is used as an integral part of the continuous improvement of operational processes and business relationships.

            To systematically identify and manage these risks, OR has established a comprehensive Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) framework aligned with the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). The framework enables OR to identify, assess, prevent, mitigate, and address actual and potential adverse human rights impacts across its operations, value chain, and business relationships, while supporting continuous improvement in human rights performance and stakeholder engagement.

Management Approach

(GRI 3-3c., GRI 3-3d., GRI 3-3e., GRI 3-3f)

Human Rights Policy
            OR is committed to conducting business with integrity and respect for human rights. In 2022, OR has announced a Human Rights Policy  expressing our commitment to act in accordance with the principles of international human rights, international laws, and local laws of the country where OR conducts business. The Policy is aligned with accepted international human rights standards and practices, such as the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UNHDR) and the Core Conventions of the International Labor Organization (ILO Core Conventions). OR is committed to promoting equality and prohibiting discrimination on the basis of gender, ethnicity, race, religion, or any other status. We uphold employees’ labor rights and strongly oppose the use of child labor and forced labor. The scope of the Policy covers all OR’s business operations, including OR group and business partners that is contractors, suppliers, agents and service providers, as well as any new business relations or joint ventures with diverse forms of business relationships.

            The Policy applies across all OR Group companies, subsidiaries, business partners, contractors, suppliers, agents, service providers, and new business relationships, including mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures. OR expects all business partners to uphold the principles of this Policy. The Policy covers key human rights issues throughout the value chain, including the prohibition of child labor, forced labor, and human trafficking; non-discrimination, diversity, and equal opportunity; prevention of harassment and violence; freedom of association and collective bargaining; fair working conditions and remuneration; occupational health and safety; protection of vulnerable groups; community rights; customer rights; and personal data privacy.            

            OR communicates the Human Rights Policy to employees and stakeholders by integrating the Policy into training programs for new employees and new dealers. The contents of the Policy are passed on to OR group through the OR Group Way of Conduct, and to suppliers and contractors through the PTTOR Suppliers Sustainable Code of Conduct (SSCoC). In 2023, OR also published the ‘OR Group Human Rights Handbook‘, which defines work processes and standards that support compliance with the Human Rights Policy of OR and OR subsidiaries.
           OR assigns the Sustainability, Quality, Safety, Occupational Health and Environment Department to oversee all human rights matters across the entire process regarding day-to-day responsibilities. These responsibilities include reviewing policies, conducting human rights due diligence (HRDD) and human rights risk assessment at least every 3 years, monitoring human rights and reporting on the results, determining corrective actions and remediation for incidents of human rights violations, organizing training on human rights, and communicating with other relevant departments to cooperate on human rights management. The results are expected to ensure that all human rights working processes have been operated efficiently and achieve the goals. The OR Corporate Governance and Sustainability Committee holds the highest oversight responsibility to ensure that respect for human rights is embedded across OR Group’s operations and value chain. Its roles include reviewing human rights performance, approving relevant policies, and ensuring alignment with international standards.

Labor Practices
              OR takes responsibility for respecting the rights of employees and workers throughout the supply chain, therefore, has established operations in accordance with international labor rights principles. The details are presented below:

Freedom of Association(GRI 407-1)
              OR respects employees’ right to form associations and/or participate in collective bargaining to negotiate their working conditions and environment. OR seeks to support employees and workers in accessing this right by refraining from interfering in employee participation or membership of associations or groups. OR has also supported the establishment of welfare committees in all operational sites. These committees are groups of employees elected to represent employee interests in collective bargaining about working conditions that affect employees. Furthermore, to support access to this right for workers in our supply chain, OR has also included specific clauses on freedom of association, and the freedom of employees and workers to either participate or abstain in associations, unions, and federations, in the “OR Supplier Sustainable Code of Conduct (SSCoC)”. This information is communicated to all suppliers for their acknowledgement and strict compliance. As of 2025, OR and our suppliers do not have any risks with regards to freedom of association and collective bargaining.

Child Labor and Forced Labor(GRI 408-1, GRI 409-1)
            The use of child labor and/or forced labor is a grave violation of human rights. OR takes serious action to ensure that all OR’s businesses throughout the value chain are free from child labor and forced labor. OR is committed to compliance with laws, regulations, and international standards. Combatting and eliminating child labor and forced labor is embedded in our Human Rights Policy and the OR Suppliers Sustainable Code of Conduct (SSCoC). To that end, we have maintained child labor and forced labor as one of the human rights issues that must be closely monitored through human rights due diligence. In 2025, OR and suppliers did not have child labor and forced labor risks.
           OR places great importance on respecting and promoting children’s rights in alignment with the Children’s Rights and Business Principles (CRBP). This commitment encompasses children’s rights to education, health, safety, and equal opportunities for development. OR has implemented initiatives that support children’s rights, such as scholarship programs, youth development activities, and community-based safe-space projects. In addition, labor-related matters are identified as one of OR’s material issues, with established principles, assessment approaches, performance indicators, and examples of practices set out in the OR Group Sustainability Management Guideline 
           In addition, OR is committed to respecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples in accordance with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). OR requires that any business activity that may affect the land, resources, livelihoods, or cultural heritage of Indigenous Peoples undergo a Free, Prior and Informed Consultation process and may proceed only upon receiving Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) from the community. OR also provides accessible, transparent, and equitable grievance and remediation mechanisms to ensure that its operations are conducted responsibly and in alignment with international human rights standards. Further information on supplier standards can be found in the section “Supply Chain Management” 

Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) (GRI 406-1., GRI 411-1)

        OR prioritizes human rights management and conducts the Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) assessments at least once every three years in accordance with standard reporting frameworks. The latest assessment, completed in 2026, covered 100% of OR’s business operations, including Contractors, Tier-1 Suppliers, and Joint Ventures. This process involved representatives from responsible departments engaging with Rights Holders to review activities across the value chain and to evaluate the severity and likelihood of potential human rights risks associated with the aforementioned business activities.

Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) Process
Human Rights Due Diligence Process OR has established a human rights due diligence process including the following components:
  1. Establish Policy Commitment: OR has established a Human Rights Policy that covers all OR’s business operations (business activities, products, and services), OR’s subsidiaries, and joint ventures with business involving mergers and joint ventures.
  2. Assess Actual and Potential Impacts: OR identifies and assesses human rights risks and impacts through the value chain and associated with production of products and services of OR, Or group, and joint ventures with business relationships (OR companies from mergers and joint ventures). OR also identify stakeholders whose human rights may be affected.
  3. Integrate Findings and Take Appropriate Action: OR integrates findings through defining mitigation and remediation measures for human rights salient issues in order to effectively prevent and minimize human rights risks and impacts.
  4. Track and Communicate Performance: The department responsible for overseeing human rights will track and monitor the implementation and effectiveness of measures designed to prevent and mitigate human rights impacts. This process assesses whether the measures effectively prevent or minimize human rights risks or identify areas for improvement. The results will be reported to management and related departments for acknowledgment.
  5. Remediate Adverse Impacts: OR recognizes that human rights violations may affect the Company’s stakeholders. This may occur anywhere through the value chain and activities associated with the production of the products and services of OR and OR group. Thus, OR has put in place procedures to ensure access to remediation, including the establishment of complaint channels and identification of forms of compensation. Compensation may take the form of monetary compensation such as compensation for damages, as well as non-monetary forms, such as the creation of a Customer Relations Centre via telephone or website channels to take feedback, provide advice, enact corrective actions, and provide preliminary remediation to maintain the relationships between OR and all OR’s stakeholders.

Human Rights Risk Assessment Process

1 Human Rights Issues Identification2 Inherent Risk Rating3 Residual Risk Rating4 Risk Prioritization
  • Identify all relevant human rights issues to OR’s own operations, value chain, and new business relations by considering impact to business and potential rights holders effected.
  • Identify affected groups of stakeholders, including vulnerable people i.e. women, children, indigenous people, migrant labor, third-party employee, local communities, LGBTQI+ and people with disabilities.
  • Assess the inherent risks associated with the identified human rights issues, referring to the level of risk that exists without any controls or mitigation measures.
  • Assess the residual risks associated with the identified human rights issues, meaning the risks that remain after OR’s existing controls and measures have been applied.
  • Prioritize human rights salient issues, referring to identified human rights issues with very high residual risk.

Human Rights Risk Assessment Criteria
             OR evaluates human rights risks based on inherent risks, considering global trends in human rights and the practices of companies with similar business operations (peers). Assessment criteria are established by categorizing risks into two dimensions: the level of impact and the likelihood of occurrence. The details are as follows:

Meaning of risk

TH_Human Rights 2024_05
Level 4 = Very high
TH_Human Rights 2024_06
Level 3 = High
TH_Human Rights 2024_07
Level 2 = Medium
TH_Human Rights 2024_08
Level 1 = Low

1) Severity of risk or impact is determined by Scale, Scope, and Irremediability

  • Scale refers to the gravity or seriousness of the risk and impact such as violations to the right to live or safety of employees, customers, and communities.
  • Scope refers to the number of individuals affected by the risk such as impact to the livelihoods of an entire community or the impact on the collective bargaining rights of all employees.
  • Remediability refers to the feasibility or difficulty of restoring affected individuals to their original state before the violation occurred. For example, employees who suffer from depression due to verbal abuse during performance evaluations, which affects their mental health, may require more time and support to recover compared to individuals who are not affected.

        The severity level is related to the risk or impact on human rights that occurs without considering the aggregate value (focusing on the worst-case scenario).
2) Likelihood refers to the likelihood of a risk or impact occurring, which depends on the context or environment in which the risk or impact takes place. The risk level for certain issues may be higher in operational areas, and it can be divided into the frequency of past occurrences and/or the probability of occurrence

Human Rights Issues and Relevant Rights Holders
             OR reviews global human rights trends and updates from various sources, such as reports by Human Rights Watch and the Business and Human Rights Resource Center. Combined with findings on human rights issues identified among industry peers, OR has identified 6 salient human rights issues related to relevant rights holders: employees, suppliers and contractors, communities, and consumers and customers. The details are as follows:

Human Rights Risk Assessment Results and Mitigation Measures
              From the Human Rights Due-Diligence assessment, which covers 100% of the operational areas, including contractors, Tier 1 suppliers, and joint ventures, it was found that from 2024 to 2026, OR had six salient human rights issues. These salient issues are present in 25% of OR’s own operations, 0.1% for contractors and Tier 1 suppliers, and 0% of joint ventures. Additionally, risk mitigation measures were implemented in all areas where risks were identified (100% of risk with mitigation actions taken):

View Human Rights Risk Assessment Results: Human Rights Due-Diligence Summary Report 

Remediation Actions Taken
             OR is committed to conducting human rights risk assessment with a systematic periodic review process aligned with its risk management
system and mitigation measures. The Company regularly reviews and updates its Human Rights Policy and commitments to ensure alignment with applicable laws, regulations, and international standards, thereby strengthening its Human Rights Management System.

              In case of violations including discriminatory behavior or harassment, OR will ensure that proper and effective remediation actions are implemented with continuous tracking, monitoring, and performance reporting. OR recognizes the importance of considering different forms of remedy to ensure that affected rights holders receive effective remedy. These may include compensation and other measures to address the harm caused, as well as measures to prevent recurrence, such as injunctions or guarantees of non-repetition.

              Nonetheless, in 2024 – 2026, there were no confirmed case of human right violation case in OR’s operation. Therefore, no remediation actions were required.

Communication and Complaint Channel
            Adhering to OR’s Human Rights Policy, the Company commits to reviewing and conducting the Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) process every three years. OR also continuously monitors, evaluates, and strengthens its existing measures, actions, and practices to enhance effectiveness and prevent potential human rights impacts on rights holders and vulnerable groups across its operations, value chain, and future business relationships, including mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures. These ongoing efforts include strengthening stakeholder engagement, enhancing whistleblowing and grievance mechanisms, and implementing appropriate management systems, mitigation measures, and remediation actions.

            Effective communication and grievance mechanisms play a critical role in identifying, assessing, and addressing human rights risks and impacts. They provide stakeholders, rights holders, and vulnerable groups with accessible channels to raise concerns, submit complaints, and share feedback regarding actual or potential human rights violations related to the Company’s operations and business activities. In addition, these mechanisms support the validation of human rights risk assessment results by helping to identify issues that may not have been fully captured through the assessment process.

            To ensure accessibility and transparency, OR has established multiple communication channels and grievance mechanisms through which concerns related to human rights issues can be reported, either anonymously or with identification, as follows:

               Internal Grievance Channels: Employees and internal rights-holders can submit grievances directly through the following channels:

      • Leadership and Talent Management Department – Oversees compliance with regulations and investigates complaints received through submission to supervisors or through complaint letters to the department.
      • Welfare Committee, Human Resources Service Department – Receives suggestions for the development of employee welfare.
      • Corporate Governance Department – Receive complaints and investigate corruption in the organization and good governance.

               External Grievance Channels: OR Customers and external rights holders can submit grievances or reports related to human rights issues through the OR Contact Center as follows:

      • PTT Oil and Retail Business Public Company Limited (Phra Khanong Office)
      • Address: 555 At Narong Road, Khlong Toei Subdistrict, Khlong Toei District, Bangkok 10260

      • Website:  https://www.pttor.com/th/contact_center

                  To ensure the protection of complainants, complaints will be treated confidentially, with information shared only with the relevant department. Individuals who do not wish to disclose their personal information to the relevant departments for problem resolution can notify OR, and OR will anonymize the complainant’s identity to protect them from retaliation or any unfair treatment resulting from the complaint.
                 OR will adhere to good corporate governance principles by committing to listen to every complaint consistently, transparently, and empathetically, ensuring fairness to all parties involved. A timeframe will be set for investigating complaints, and improvement guidelines will be communicated to complainants appropriately.
                 Furthermore, OR values the integration of customer feedback and stakeholder input into the complaint-handling process. Surveys will be conducted to measure satisfaction levels after complaints have been addressed to customers and rights holders, which will be used to enhance the complaint-handling process and further develop services.
                OR has announced ‘Rules on Complaints and Whistleblowing against Fraud and Non-Compliance with Laws or Organizational Regulations’. The aim is to establish clear, transparent, fair, accountable, and responsible to all stakeholder guidelines and practices for whistleblowing, in line with the principles of good corporate governance and OR’s philosophy. These regulation ensures an appropriate timeframe for investigations. The whistleblower’s identity will be kept confidential, and they will be protected from retaliation both during and after the investigation. OR’s Corporate Governance Department will monitor the progress of corruption and non-compliance investigations and report to the Chief Executive Officer and the Corporate Governance and Sustainability Committee at least twice a year.

Performance

Human Rights Complaint Incident in 2025

               In 2025, from all OR complaint channels, it was found that no incidents of human rights violations were reported.

Human Rights Awareness

               OR continuously promotes human rights awareness across the organization by developing internal communication materials distributed through e-mail and printed media at operational sites. These efforts aim to enhance employees’ understanding of the importance of human rights, risk prevention and mitigation, and emerging trends at both national and global levels. PTTOR also organizes knowledge-testing quiz activities and provides opportunities for employees to contribute suggestions to improve communication materials to better meet their needs.
               For external stakeholders, OR has created PR materials to educate the general public through the OR Academy Facebook page and organized activities that foster engagement between OR, suppliers, contractors, and communities through human rights education, as part of the OASYS CSR Showcase 2025, held on 17 September 2025.

Human Rights Training

Human Rights Training and Informing
              In 2025, OR conducted training and communicated information related to human rights to promote understanding and enhance employees’ capacity to comply with the company’s human rights policy. OR developed and distributed an online e-learning course, “Human Rights for OR Business” covering topics such as the fundamental principles of human rights in business, OR’s human rights policy, human rights risks in business operations, relevant human rights case studies in business, the human rights complaints process for OR employees and external individuals, as well as the organization’s practices for preventing human rights violations. Additionally, OR also provided basic human rights and business principles training to the OR group in the country.

Discrimination and Harassment Training
                 As the “Discrimination and Harassment” is one of the salient human rights issues, OR has developed an online e-learning course on discrimination and harassment in which employees are required to complete training. The training course aims to provide participants with knowledge and understanding of key principles of equality, discrimination, harassment, bullying in the workplace, and relevant Thai laws. Additionally, the course covers preventive measures and guidelines for addressing issues related to discrimination, harassment, or intimidation in the workplace.

Training on Respect for Human Rights in Security Operations
                 Contractors providing security personnel at OR’s operational sites must receive communication regarding OR’s Human Rights Policy. Furthermore, it is specified in the contract that they must undergo training on human rights, with 100% security personnel and subcontracted security personnel acknowledging OR’s Human Rights Policy. This is in alignment with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), to ensure that the deployment of security services adheres to international human rights standards. Additionally, OR communicates the human rights specifications to its suppliers and ensures that they acknowledge and sign the OR Suppliers Sustainable Code of Conduct (SSCoC).

Human Rights Support

                  OR demonstrates its commitment to responsible business conduct and respect for human rights through its investment in Brighter Energy Company Limited (BE), initiated in 2019, during a period when Myanmar remained politically stable. However, following the 2021 military coup, which resulted in escalating violence and international sanctions, OR closely monitored the situation and reaffirmed its commitment to human rights by suspending terminal construction and additional capital investments in the project starting October 2022, despite having no controlling authority over BE as a minority shareholder.
                  OR has established preventive risk-management measures by strengthening oversight mechanisms for joint-venture companies through ESG-based sustainability assessments, covering human rights and labor issues, and by implementing governance practices under the OR Group Way of Conduct. OR also governs its suppliers through the OR Suppliers Sustainable Code of Conduct (SSCoC) and maintains accessible grievance channels for stakeholders to ensure that OR is not involved in human rights violations across its supply chain.
