Driving Positive Change

Upon commencement of employment and annually in subsequent years with ORBCOMM, all employees renew their commitment to this policy by signing a statement that they agree to abide by these standards. In addition, ORBCOMM’s employee handbooks are geographically specific, reflecting the legal, social and ethical customs and practices that support ORBCOMM’s philosophy of “Think Globally, Act Locally.”

We have the most talented and dedicated employees in the industry, and believe that strength comes from leveraging the broad expertise, individual skills and unique perspectives of people from different communities, backgrounds and cultures. We have offices and employees around the world or better support our global customer base.

Our corporate culture encourages a collaborative and inclusive environment based on camaraderie, teamwork and mutual respect where everyone has a voice and can make an impact on contributing to ORBCOMM’s success regardless of their position in the Company.

Individuals can also anonymously contact the Legal & Compliance Department through the ORBCOMM hotline at 1-844-884-0119 or visit here to locate international local numbers for the hotline.

ORBCOMM is committed to providing a fair and harassment-free working environment. We respond to all complaints or incidents of workplace harassment in a fair and timely manner. Harassment should not be ignored, as silence can and often is interpreted as acceptance.

To help our employees understand what is expected of them, we provide comprehensive training in areas such as workplace violence or bullying, discrimination, sexual harassment and more.

ORBCOMM respects the legal, moral and ethical standards of the jurisdictions where and with whom we do business and forbids all types of fraud, bribery and corruption in all countries. We do not support any form of forced labor, including child labor and slavery, as well as all forms of mental and physical coercion, and are committed to providing a healthy and safe working environment for our global employees. In support of these commitments, employees who have serious concerns about ORBCOMM’s adherence to our business code of conduct and ethics should report them in accordance the procedure outlined in our Whistleblower Policy.

While we don’t directly purchase raw material to create our products, ORBCOMM adheres to the OECD Due Diligence Guidelines, using the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition – Global E-Sustainability Initiative (EICC-GESI) reporting template to inquire about conflict minerals when working with our suppliers to trace the source of conflict minerals to their smelt or mine origin. Our goal is to ensure the supply chain is free from any materials connected to human rights violations, working towards sustainable sourcing that prioritizes conflict-free procurement practices.

We make efficient use of materials across our technological innovation and manufacturing operations to help protect the planet. ORBCOMM is focused on developing state-of-the-art solutions that help our customers reduce their ecological footprint and promote a green economy. Our industry-leading trailer tracking devices are self-powered with solar recharging technology for low and efficient power consumption and long service life, which eliminates the need for frequent battery changes. Our best-in-class fleet management solutions help customers with fuel management, route optimization and driver behavior to maximize fuel efficiency, decrease idling, minimize CO2 emissions and reduce aggressive driving. Through our industry-leading cold-chain monitoring solutions, ORBCOMM enables customers to protect refrigerated cargo and deliver properly cooled food and pharmaceuticals to customers, reducing spoilage and wasted loads.

ORBCOMM’s Automatic Identification System (AIS) service provides a full picture of vessel traffic to enhance ocean protection and compliance programs and help prevent Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing. Other ORBCOMM maritime solutions include vessel monitoring system (VMS) as well as buoy monitoring for tracking oil spills and transmitting environmental data at sea. In the oil and gas industry, ORBCOMM monitors and controls remote field equipment and sensors, to detect pipeline leaks and spills and other hazardous conditions.

In addition, ORBCOMM’s satellite and satellite-cellular solutions provide an easy and cost-effective way to connect people even in the most remote areas of the world to vital communications equipment during times of distress to facilitate better emergency preparedness, quicker evacuations and improved logistics during post-disaster crisis management. From providing the communication link for flood modeling software to tracking vehicles and containers during storms, ORBCOMM’s satellite connectivity provides a reliable way to transmit routine information before, during and after extreme weather events and fills in the communication gaps when cellular is no longer an option.

As part of our company-wide commitment to give back to the local communities where we have offices around the world, ORBCOMM supports a number of service organizations through volunteer work and collection-based donations.
