Corporate Governance
GLG Life Tech Corporation is managed under the direction of the Board of Directors, whose purpose is to maximize long-term economic value for our shareholders by responsibly addressing the concerns of our employees, business partners, communities, and government. GLG has adopted corporate governance practices to promote the effective functioning of the Board, its committees and the company. All employees, officers and directors are required to adhere to principals of integrity and honesty while conducting business on behalf of GLG Life Tech Corporation.
Our business operates in an environment designed to be transparent and highly ethical. Our core principles outline the way we strive to conduct our day-to-day business operations. This covers everything from our financial reporting procedures to our operational code of ethics. Each day our people focus on exacting principles in our production facilities in order to adhere to strict procedures necessary to meet the certifications associated with high quality food manufacturing practices. Our financial team is also bound by a responsibility to comply with regulatory standards defined under the stringent requirements of two listing exchanges in the US and Canada.
We advocate the principles of operational transparency and respect for shareholder rights. As a publically traded Canadian corporation listed on both the TSX and NASDAQ, we employ an internal control framework designed to comply with both the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX").
