Message from the Chief Executive:
Dear Colleagues,
We are all proud of Alba's national and international reputation as one of, if not, the leading smelter in the Middle East, ranking amongst the top performers in the world and growing globally, manufacturing the very highest quality products in a safe and healthy environment.
The methods we employ to attain these results are as important as the results themselves. These include the knowledge, experience and talents of our employees, the wisdom of our strategy and the values that drive our behaviour.
In Alba, we believe in upholding the highest standards of ethical and professional behaviour in everything we do. We have therefore implemented the attached Code of Conduct as a document that outlines the conduct expected of our employees.
This Code of Conduct relies on basic principles of honesty, fairness, equity, integrity and respect for people. These principles apply to all our business affairs and describe the behaviour expected of every employee. We should all promote trust, openness, teamwork, professionalism and pride in what we do. We will conduct our business in an ethical, professional, environmentally sustainable and socially responsible manner. To accomplish these objectives, we need the loyalty and support of all our employees.
The Guide to Business Conduct is intended to serve the individual employee as a set of basic guidelines designed to assist in avoiding actions that may reflect badly on the employee or on the organisation. Since it is impossible to make this an all-inclusive document, employees must use their judgement so that their conduct conforms to the intent and spirit sought in all matters including those not specifically mentioned herein.
Please also note that this Guide to Business Conduct is designed to supplement, not replace, the existing Alba personnel policy. As Alba employees, we are expected to review this Guide to Business Conduct periodically and apply its principles to our daily work with complete understanding and compliance. Thank you for your usual support and cooperation.
Ahmed Saleh Al-Noaimi
Chief Executive
