Introduction
The Omni Code of Conduct is the most important document issued by our Company. Each of us should understand and comply with this code, which applies to our directors, group leaders and members.
We wish to enhance our reputation for integrity, and to be valued as a member and business associate in all our relationships. This objective is reflected in our pride in what we do and how we do it.
Our management believes that integrity is an important quality and one, which, by improving our reputation, gives advantages to our directors, group leaders and members.
The code outlines behaviour expected of each of us and encourages us to ask ourselves 'What is the right thing to do?'. The code is based on shared values and on behaviour that is intended to help our business activity. We believe the values and behaviour outlined in our code accord with those of the communities in which we operate.
