Code of Conduct

It is the policy of DIAZ CLAUDIO GUSTAVO to provide our Code of Conduct, which serves as a guide to establish and maintain appropriate business conduct for all employees (management, employees, contractors, student interns, trainees and volunteers). We expect all employees to exhibit the highest standards of ethical behaviour and business integrity in their conduct.

Employees must:

  1. Comply with all applicable laws and regulations in the countries in which we operate, including relevant international laws and regulations such as those on trade sanctions, export controls, reporting obligations, data protection and antitrust.
     
  2. Adhere to a zero tolerance to all forms of bribery, corruption, extortion or embezzlement.

 

  1. Declare any conflict of interest in business dealings. Any ownership or beneficial interest in a business owned by a government official or representative of a political party must also be declared.
     
  2. Ensure any business entertaining, hospitality or gifts are kept reasonable in nature, entirely for the purpose of maintaining good business relations and not intended to influence in any way decisions about future business.
     
  3. Utilize competitive information obtained only through legitimate means and for legitimate purposes in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. No attempt may be made at any time to divulge information about competitors that is commercially sensitive or confidential, and not in the public domain.
     
  4. Ensure all business and commercial dealings are transparently performed and accurately recorded in the books and records. There must be no actual or attempted participation in money laundering or engagement in insider trading.

 

  1. Always safeguard confidential information, know-how and intellectual property. All information provided through our relationships that is not in the public domain is deemed confidential and is only to be used for its intended and designated purpose. All and any personal information about individuals must be handled with full respect for the protection of their privacy and for all relevant privacy laws and regulations.
     
  2. Store and deliver products and services to meet the specifications and quality and safety criteria specified in the relevant contract or product documents to ensure they are safe for their intended use.
     
  3. Adopt and adhere to the legal and contractual rights of employees, both permanent and casual.

 

  1. Be provided with a total compensation package that includes wages, overtime pay, benefits and paid leave which meets or exceeds the legal minimum standards or appropriate prevailing industry standards, whichever is higher, and compensation terms established by legally binding collective bargaining agreements are implemented and adhered to.

 

  1. Not work more than the regular and overtime hours allowed by the law of the country where the employees are employed. All overtime work by employees is on a voluntary basis.
     
  2. Treat all employees with respect and dignity. No employee may be subject to any physical, sexual, psychological verbal harassment, abuse or other form of intimidation. There is no discrimination in employment, including hiring, compensation, advancement, discipline, termination or retirement.
