Compliance

At METRO PROPERTIES we believe that ethical, legal and business practices are of great value to our organization, employees, business partners and the public. In our day-to-day work we follow the rules laid out in the Compliance Program. This consists of a set of rules and procedures that clearly describe and define "fair play". It is based on our Business Principles:

• We aim to avoid and when necessary, resolve conflicts of interest,
• We do not offer or provide any benefits in any form,
• We do not demand or accept benefits in any form,
• We store company data/information securely and confidentiality is paramount,
• We adhere to the law of fair competition,
• We are a multicultural organization that provides equal opportunities and tolerance for all - we do not discriminate,
• We adhere to decent, responsible working conditions,
• We comply with all applicable laws and company procedures.

Current procedures and rules are taught to our employees when cooperation begins. Regular training helps us to maintain a high Compliance culture in all areas of our business. The culture of feedback and response to irregularities allows us to improve our work on a daily basis. Thanks to the Compliance online tool, we respond to violations identified on an ongoing basis.

The platform is available both for employees and our business partners 24 hours a day, from every corner of the globe, in all 30 languages of the METRO:

"Compliance is to work with laws, company guidelines, generally accepted standards, and best practices." says Agnieszka Saternus-Kozłowska, HR Director/ Compliance Officer.
