A Conflicts of Interests Standard, which sets forth our rules related to the identification and disclosure by employees of actual or potential conflicts of interest that could unduly influence the performance of their duties.
These standards are supplemented by internal operating procedures and guidelines. We have several processes to monitor compliance with our rules by employees and business partners, including by embedding compliance processes into the processes run by other functions. The Internal Audit department conducts periodic, independent audits of our compliance processes to assess the effective implementation of such standards. Internal Audit reports the results of its audits to the Audit Committee of the Board and management. Such reports may include recommendations for strengthening our internal controls.
COMMUNICATION AND AWARENESS
Technip Energies uses a variety of tools to engage with employees, managers and third parties, such as face-to-face and town-hall meetings, e-learning modules, dedicated intranet webpages, articles, posters, targeted emails, short videos, messages on our internal social media “Yammer” network and dedicated introductions prior to every meeting. The Company continues to develop Microlearnings, which are e-learnings developed in-house, covering anti-bribery and corruption, trade compliance, and data privacy. A human rights module was launched in September.
OUR CULTURE OF SPEAKING-UP AND NO RETALIATION POLICY
We encourage our employees to ask questions and report behaviors that may violate the guidelines set out in our Code of Business Conduct or in the policies and procedures that derive from it. Various channels are available to report such concerns, and include anyone within the Company’s management, the Chief Compliance Officer or anyone within the
Compliance organization, any officer of the Company, HR representatives or members of the legal department. Moreover, employees and third parties can report concerns using an independent third party via a dedicated reporting helpline (available here). The helpline allows users to submit questions or concerns securely and confidentially. Each report of a suspected violation of our Code of Business Conduct or its underlying standards is treated seriously, and investigated following the principles of objectivity, confidentiality, thoroughness, proportionality, timeliness and professionalism. Investigators must follow internal Standards while conducting investigations to ensure investigations are closed timely and in accordance with best practices. Technip Energies has a zero-tolerance policy on retaliation against employees
Business Conduct or for cooperating with an investigation. We encourage employees and others to raise questions and concerns to ensure that we are leading by example.
OTHER COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS
Technip Energies will seek to identify at the outset regulatory and compliance requirements, related to procurement, supply, and construction, whether of a national or supranational nature (e.g. European regulations). It will then develop a plan to ensure project development and implementation in order to maintain effective regulatory compliance management processes and deliver the work in compliance with applicable statutory requirements. The Company's operations and construction activities are governed by international, regional, transnational, and national laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which the Company operates relating to matters such as environmental protection, health and safety, labor and employment, import/ export controls, currency exchange, bribery and corruption, professional and operational licensing, and taxation. These laws and regulations are complex, frequently change, and have become increasingly stringent over time. In the event the scope of these laws and regulations expands in the future, the incremental cost of compliance could adversely impact the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Examples of government laws and regulations that may have a material effect on the Company's business include Export Controls and Trade Sanctions Regulations. The Company is subject to export controls and trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations, including those administered by the United Nations, the European Union and, as applicable the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, the U.S. Department of State and other governmental bodies having jurisdictions over the operations. These statutes may prohibit or restrict the Company's ability to, directly or indirectly,
conduct activities or dealings in countries or territories or with persons that are the target of trade sanctions-related prohibitions and restrictions. See also in our 2022 Annual Report section 4.3.4.2. Existing or future laws and regulations relating to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change and the environment may adversely affect our business for a description of environmental laws affecting the Group’s operations.
for good-faith reporting of suspected violations of our Code of Business Conduct or its underlying standards, or against those who assist in investigations of suspected violations.
REPORTING AND REMEDIATION
Our employees are encouraged and expected to report violations or suspected violations of our Code of Business Conduct. Various channels are available, including the option to report concerns to managers, to anyone in the corporate compliance or legal department, to an employee’s human resources representative, or to an independent third party via Ethics Point Helpline, a dedicated reporting helpline and website. We have a zero-tolerance policy on retaliation against employees for reporting suspected violations of our policies or Code of
The Company has implemented internal controls designed to minimize and detect potential violations of laws and regulations in a timely manner, but it can provide no assurance that such policies and procedures will be followed at all times or will effectively detect and prevent violations of the applicable laws by one or more of its employees, consultants, agents, or partners.
