En noviembre de 2014, aprobamos nuestro Código Ético. Describe nuestros principios y normas necesarias para seguir comprometidos con la transparencia, el buen gobierno, la responsabilidad, la independencia y la reputación respecto de los estándares éticos socialmente aceptados.

With this Code of Conduct for our suppliers, Vocento is meeting its responsibility for influencing its supply chain, so that the principles of sustainability and responsibility are shared by our suppliers of goods and services.

At Vocento we are committed to sustainable value creation and to respecting the legitimate interests of our shareholders and investors, our audiences, advertisers, employees and suppliers.

This policy contains Vocento’s management focus on equality and non-discrimination, as well as our principles, concerns and objectives in this area, beyond mere compliance with the legislation and regulations which are in force.

 The creation of sustainable value depends on full respect for the environment in all Vocento’s operations and activities. This document includes our management focus on the environment and our principles, concerns and objectives in the environmental area.

This Policy aims to establish an identifiable and effective management model for the acquisition of goods and services in accordance with the ethical, social, quality and environmental requirements that have been established by Vocento.

The Ethics Channel forms part of the Policy for Legislative Compliance and the Policy for Crime Prevention. It is a specific procedure which has been placed at the service of all Group employees as well as third parties who have a relationship with Vocento, enabling them to report in a simple and confidential way any behaviour which in their understanding constitutes conduct or actions which are inappropriate or which breach the terms of Vocento’s Code of Ethics or any other internal and external norm that is applicable.

Complaints will be examined by members of Vocento’s Ethics Committee, consisting of people in management positions in the legal department, financial department, human resources and organisation department, internal audit, and the secretary of the Board of Directors of Vocento.
