One of the overriding principles of the PGNiG Group is to act in a fair and ethical manner. PGNiG and the PGNiG Group entities are respected for their fairness, both in their management practices and in dealings with trading partners and customers, and it is essential that this reputation be maintained.

It is therefore critical that the PGNiG Group as a whole as well as each person employed by and each entity cooperating with the Group are committed to preventing and fighting any form of corruption.

The PGNiG Group’s Code of Ethics refers to the UN Convention Against Corruption as a basis for actions, recognised by the Group. The PGNiG Group’s policy provides for an unconditional obligation to comply with the applicable anti-corruption regulations in its operations, taking into account the applicable international regulations and anti-corruption regulations enacted in other countries where the PGNiG Group operates.

As a responsible business partner, the PGNiG Group evaluated all its business units in terms of the potential occurrence of corruptive practices. The identified risk was considered to be very low, as no such corruptive practices have been observed over the past five years. This conclusion was also underpinned by the internal regulations in place at the Group, which clearly define the rules of business conduct, effectively preventing any corruptive practices, as well as the system of employee training which raises awareness among employees in this area and keeps their knowledge thereof up to date. The assessment revealed that all Group business units are subject to the risk of corruption to the same extent. Therefore, the preventive measures applied by the Group are uniform in terms of their nature and scope with respect to each unit.
