How we demonstrate our values is through our ethical conduct and ethical decisions.

 

Ethical conduct

• We respect human rights in dealing with stakeholders at large e.g. team members, clients, suppliers, shareholders, communities etc.

• We recognise that local customs, traditions and practices may differ. Accordingly, we respect local laws and customs while supporting international laws and regulations.

• We do not allow child labour and ensure that our processes reflect this.

• We do not allow unlawful discrimination of any kind in working relations in the work place.

• We respect health and safety regulations in our work environment and in dealings with stakeholders.

• We require team members to maintain confidentiality with regard to sensitive information to which they have access.

• We do not allow financial malpractice, impropriety, bribery or corruption in our business practices and we act in accordance with applicable laws.
