Our Code guides us in our work, but it cannot cover every situation. When faced with a decision you are unsure about, ask yourself these questions.
Living our code
Making decisions
- Do I have the knowledge, training and tools I need?
- Do I need to ask for guidance or check our standards or procedures?
- Am I making assumptions?
- Am I living our Values and our Success Ingredients?
- Do I feel pressured, tired, or rushed?
- Do I need to raise a concern or ask for help?
- Could there be unintended consequences e.g. for individuals, communities, the environment or safety?
- Could this decision conflict with OceanaGold’s interests or impact our reputation?
- Could it look wrong or unethical?
- Would I feel ok if others knew about the decision and actions?
- Do I need to explain OceanaGold’s expectations and standards to those involved?
Living our code
Our Code of Conduct is core to who we are and how we work. It is based on our values, sets expectations and guides our decisions.
What we value
Our vision is to be a company that people trust, want to work and partner with, supply and invest in. Our values guide the actions we take to bring this vision to life.
Raising Concerns
Every concern is different and will be handled slightly differently, depending on what it is and how you raise your concern. Find out why it is important to raise concerns.
Our expectations
Every time we have contact with another person in the workplace we are contributing to the culture of our workplace. We all make many decisions in our day – some simple, some not so simple.
