Guaranteeing the respect of human rights
We are an international company where respect of human rights is a fundamental part of our culture and our social commitments. Our company is made up of a host of subsidiaries who have come together over the years through shareholdings, acquisitions, mergers and incorporations. Whilst the DNA of each subsidiary is unique and inherent to itself, we all share the same foundations regarding the respect of human rights, which are shared across our culture and social commitments.

ACTION PLAN
All team members should have access to our ethics policy. The ethics point of contact is responsible for guaranteeing access and understanding of this policy by all employees. Communication methods may vary depending on the site, country and technological resources available.
All of our subsidiaries are based in countries that have signed the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In each country where we operate, this Declaration is integrated into the legislation to deal with the primary challenges:
working conditions, for employees and sub-contractors (working hours and workload, health and safety);
salary terms and social security cover;
combatting all forms of discrimination and harassment; personal data protection;
freedom of association and union membership; combatting child labour and all forms of forced labour (including practices similar to modern slavery).
