Lee Jae-yong, the author’s vice president of Samsung, who was sentenced to repatriation by the government for destruction and repatriation, reiterated his willingness to practice compliance management.

According to Samsung Electronics on the 21st, Vice President Lee Jae-yong pledged to continue supporting the activities of Samsung’s Compliance Committee through his attorneys, and asked the president and members to continue to fulfill their natural functions.

This can be interpreted as a reaffirmation of your willingness to manage compliance when Lee’s new restriction generated interest in his role and role on the Compliance Committee. Although the Court of Destruction judged that the effectiveness and sustainability of the Compliance Committee were insufficient, the sentence was sentenced to prison, but it is read that Vice President Lee will dedicate efforts to strengthen compliance management regardless of this.

Only at the time of the Compliance Committee’s inauguration were concerns raised that it would undermine corporate activities due to inefficient “ceiling” controls. In addition, it was created on the recommendation of the Court of Destruction and there were doubts, as if it would disappear once the vice president’s trial was finished.

However, to alleviate these concerns, Vice President Lee declared to the public that he would implement the ‘recommendations of the Compliance Committee’ and ensured the independent activities of the Compliance Committee. Consequently, all executives, including senior management, took the initiative to commit to a ‘compliance practice’ so that compliance with laws and principles can be established as an organizational culture.

Vice President Lee personally followed the Compliance Committee’s recommendations and took the initiative. A representative example is that in May, beyond the recommendation of the Compliance Committee, he directly apologized to the public for past controversies, such as succession, work and communication with civil society, and declared that ‘there is no succession to the fourth generation ‘by expressing the will to comply.

At this meeting, Vice President Lee said, “I clearly promise here that I will not rely on the records or do anything that is ethically blamed.” “Compliance is a value that cannot be compromised. It will take root.

In the decision on the revocation decision decision on the 30th of last month, Vice President Lee stressed that the system will complement each other to create a compliance system that can be rejected even when unfair pressure comes from outside.

Vice President Lee said: “We will not do anything that violates the law and causes misunderstandings. We will make support for the TF project operate more transparently, for example by requiring stricter compliance monitoring than other organizations.”

Along with this, he said, “No one, including me, will never be an exception for Samsung,” he said. “I definitely promise that I will take responsibility and promote to be reborn as a company with the highest level of transparency and morality beyond compliance.”
