Fair Treatment of Employees

Our working culture is the most important driver for our sustained success.

Our commitments:

We continually aim to create a respectful working culture that is genuinely open and inclusive and free from any kind of bullying, harassment or discrimination; this is fundamental to our commercial success.

We will continually assess our operations to promote a diversity of background, experience and thought within our teams; this is critical to our growth. We will only hire, retain and promote colleagues on the basis of merit and will not tolerate any form of discrimination in our decision-making.

We strive to provide fair opportunity and reward for all colleagues in line with our policies and living our Values.

We must not let any personal interests impact the quality of our decisionmaking for our business.

Our commitments:

We avoid conflicts of interest in our business dealings, but where they occur, we deal with them.

Regardless of anyone’s role or position, all conflicts, or potential conflicts, shall be disclosed and reviewed in advance of any decisions that could impact our business interests.

We will seek to manage conflicts of interest through disclosure and removal from connected decisionmaking, where appropriate.

A sustainable business must protect human rights and prevent modern slavery. It is the right thing to do.
