 Code of Conduct

 

The principles of ethical business behavior are laid down in the TSO Global Distributors Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct governs how TSO Global Distributor companies conduct their affairs. This Code of Conduct describes the behavior TSO Global Distributors expects of you and what you can expect of TSO Global Distributors. The language is not legalistic and the Code is more than a set of rules. It should be viewed as an essential guide. The values underlying the Code of Conduct are obvious and universal – honesty, integrity and respect for people. Your conduct will be judged by how you live by those values, and how you have met the intention and spirit of the principles in the Code.

Throughout the Code you will see situations in which you are expected to report or seek advice about your concerns. You can do so by reporting or talking to: your supervisor; any other senior TSO Global Distributors person with whom you feel comfortable to have such a conversation, or to whom you could send an email or letter, e.g. a Human Resources or Legal representative or a Compliance Officer.

In the Code we mention specific areas where a breach of the Code is likely to carry severe consequences. But all breaches may involve serious consequences up to and including dismissal, and in some cases fines and imprisonment.
