Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Rectitude Holdings Ltd, a safety equipment wholesaler, has received a 'Mixed' ethical rating, primarily due to concerns about its internal work environment. Employee reviews on platforms like Glassdoor consistently describe a 'toxic' office culture, with reports of 'constant politics,' 'disrespect,' and management allegedly holding 'grudges.' While specific data on pay equity or labor violations is unavailable, these qualitative accounts highlight significant issues regarding fair pay and worker respect within the company. Other ethical areas, including environmental impact, fair trade, and community engagement, lack sufficient public information for a comprehensive assessment.
