The Supplier Code of Conduct

is a set of our minimum requirements for our suppliers of goods and providers of services in the supply chain to comply with the law, our core valuesand the principles of social responsibility. As part of our Supplier Code of Conduct, we have taken into account the principle that the supplier conducts its business honestly and ethically. A supplier shall not resort to any form of corruption or bribery, whether in dealing with government officials, public officials, customers or business partners.

Compliance

we maintain a system to manage our compliance with all obligations and relevant regulations and to promote and adopt compliance and to prevent any non-conformities. Compliance ensures that provisions of generally applicable law are fully complied with and no laws are broken. More and more often compliance is viewed as an indispensable element of successfully managing an enterprise in the legal and economic space. Maintaining the principle of legality and therefore creating an efficient compliance system remains a joint responsibility of the whole company.

The Compliance Officer is responsible for the compliance system in the organization, and, as a rule, strives to prevent violations of the law, in particular, committing crimes that originate in the enterprise and may cause significant damage to the enterprise through the risk of the enterprise sustaining reputational damage or being held liable for violations of the law. One of the compliance management standards is ISO 19600, ISO 37001.

The Code of Ethics

sets out the minimum standards of behaviour that apply to all employees. According to this document, all business decisions are made with honesty and integrity, based on objective factors such as cost, quality, value, service and the ability to meet obligations. Moreover, according to the Code of Ethics, all employees are obliged to avoid any actions or relationships that might be inconsistent or appear to be inconsistent with the interests of the Group.
