DUBAI, United Arab Emirates-Monday 25 March 2019 [ AETOS Wire ]
SNC-Lavalin is pleased to announce that it has earned the prestigious Compliance Leader Verification from the Ethisphere Institute,
an independent centre for research, best practices and thought
leadership. The Compliance Leader Verification is awarded exclusively to
companies with the best industry ethics and compliance program that are
proactively investing resources in compliance, sending a clear signal
that an organization takes compliance and ethics seriously. This
certification is valid until the end of 2020.
“Ethisphere’s
recognition acknowledges the efforts we have made to build a strong
ethics and compliance program,” said Neil Bruce, President and CEO of
SNC-Lavalin. “It is by measuring ourself against leading companies that
we will continue to improve our program elements, structure and
processes. I want to thank all our employees for their commitment to
fostering a culture of integrity.”
Ethisphere completed a thorough assessment of SNC-Lavalin’s Integrity Program
and benchmarked it against its 2018 World’s Most Ethical Companies data
set, providing insight into the programs and practices of leading
companies around the world. SNC-Lavalin’s performance was specifically
evaluated on six main areas: program resources and structure,
perceptions of ethical culture, written standards, training and
communication, risk assessment, monitoring and auditing, enforcement,
discipline and incentives.
“We are happy
to award the Compliance Leader Verification™” designation to
SNC-Lavalin, said Erica Salmon Byrne, Executive Vice President,
Ethisphere. “The structure of the program is exemplary, adopting many
leading practices that reflect the company’s genuine commitment to
integrity in all of its actions. In addition, the visible leadership
provided by Neil Bruce and Dr. Hentie Dirker at the helm reflects true
adherence to doing business the right way, and communicates that message
to SNC-Lavalin employees around the globe.”
“We all play a
role in maintaining a strong culture of integrity and embedding ethical
standards in the decisions we make every day,” said Tony Lenard,
Regional Integrity Head - Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific at
SNC-Lavalin. “This recognition is yet another testament to our ongoing
commitment and focus on doing business the right way, with the highest
ethical standards. As a leading engineering end-to-end services
provider, we will continue to promote compliance and ethics excellence
among our employees and in communities where we operate in the Middle
East and globally.”
