ANTI-CORRUPTION POLICY
1. Letter from the Managing Director
In the following pages, you will learn about our Code of Ethics and Conduct, which brings together a set of ethical principles and rules of conduct that guide our business and our company’s decisions. Thus, we seek to promote and consecrate our values, guiding our activities and allowing us to be a company recognized for the respect and ethics practiced on a daily basis.
This code of ethics gathers the set of guidelines that guides the behavior of the company’s employees, supervisors, managers, and directors. Just like social life, the code is not something static, established once and for all. The critical look at the practice and on the code itself will allow revisions and transformations to be made, over time, in the direction of the desired goals.
END ZAYA believes that the values and practices reflect high ethical and moral standards, which seek to ensure credibility, preserving the image of the company and its clients.
If you have any doubt about a situation being considered prohibited or not by END ZAYA, or become aware of any action that violates the ethical principles and conduct of this Code, an email should be sent to ouvidoriaendzaya@hotmail.com, reporting the occurrence, informing in detail the fact occurred, so that appropriate measures can be taken. Remember, say no to corruption in all its forms.
Paulo Cesar
Managing Director of End Zaya
