Ethics code - our approach to business ethics
Gemini is committed to doing business in an ethical way. To achieve this goal, we have an established ethics code that underpins our day-to-day strategic decisions, management and professional practices.
This includes a strong focus on the ethical behaviour of our employees and on conducting ethical relationships with our clients, suppliers and sub-contractors.
Ethics and compliance are fully embedded in the culture of our business at all levels, and our strict ethics code of conduct is championed at Board level. Our strong ethical policy incorporates a zero tolerance approach.
Specific ethical actions within the business include:
- Full communication of Ethics, Compliance and Whistleblowing policies to every employee.
- Line management responsibility for re-iterating ethical principles and role modelling our Ethics and Compliance Policy across the business.
As a company we are aware of our responsibilities and Gemini Rail Group actively encourages its employees to respect and observe the principles detailed below. This Code applies to all employees.
This Code is based on five ethical Principles and core values, which constitute the main domains of responsibility, within which ethical issues are considered.
The manner in which they apply and the contexts that they apply in will inevitably change over time
Our five five ethical Principles and core values are:
- Be reliable & trustworthy
- Collaborate
- Demonstrate passionate commitment
- Demonstrate competence
- Be a great professional partner
Each Principle is described in a statement of values, reflecting the fundamental beliefs that guide ethical reasoning, decision-making and behaviour.
