BE EXEMPLARY IN ETHICS

Ethics and compliance are part of our DNA

As a reference engineering company, we have an important role to play in all our activities to contribute to a fairer world. Therefore, SYSTRA’s approach to ethics and compliance goes far beyond notions of risk assessment and control.

SYSTRA is a partner of trust, dealing with all parties involved in a project, such as clients, contractors, and suppliers. This key role within projects means setting the tone in terms of ethics and conformity.

For our staff, we have:

  • Published a code of ethics, as well as an anti-corruption code of conduct;
  • Disseminated a practical guide for managing business ethics;
  • Established an Ethics Committee steered by a Group Compliance Officer;
  • Created a network of compliance officers;
  • Implemented mandatory e-learning training modules dedicated to ethics;
  • Deployed an ethics alert system.

Regarding third parties, we strive to:

  • Promote our ethics values via exemplary conduct;
  • Assess the compliance of our business partners;
  • Insert ethics clauses in our contracts;
  • Ensure strict adherence to national legislation and
    international agreements; to this effect, we have notably adopted a ‘sanctioned country’ procedure and published two guides dealing respectively with anti-competitive practices and reprehensible behaviour in the context of our public contracts.
