It sets expectations for respectful, inclusive workplaces, human rights, environmental protection, community engagement and fair dealing with customers, suppliers and competitors. The document describes internal controls for accurate financial reporting and continuous disclosure, outlines how to report concerns (including an independent 24/7 Ethics Hotline), and confirms strong non‑retaliation protections. Governance of the Code rests with senior officers and board committees, with annual certifications and defined processes for investigating violations and approving any waivers.
