ENRA Group Berhad - Annual Report 2020 31 H. How we Manage our Material Sustainability Matters (Cont’d) 1. Material Economic Sustainability Matters (Cont’d) 1.1 Ethics, governance and compliance (Cont’d) As part of our sustainability practices, we ensure parties that we engage with including existing and potential employees, customers, vendors, suppliers, business partners and financiers comply with our standards of ethical practices and codes of conduct throughout our business relationship. We perform periodical review of their performance to ensure continuous compliance. We also carry out an annual compliance review of our vendors to ensure that fair competition is upheld at all times when dealing with third parties and that we conduct our businesses ethically in line with our corporate values of Ethical, Noble, Reliable and Accountable. For this financial year, the annual compliance review was emailed to our vendors which saw a faster response time. Likewise, we also welcome similar reviews, due diligence, and performance audits by all parties that we engage with. Internally, our various internal policies and procedures ensure everyone within the Group comply with both regulatory and customers’ requirements with a view to eliminate or reduce exposure to risks faced in our businesses: i. Directors’ Code of Ethics and Board Charter By law, the business and affairs of every company must be managed by, or under the direction of its board of directors. Similarly, our Board has the overall responsibility for the corporate governance, strategic direction, risk management and internal controls, investor relations, management succession planning and business operations of our Group. Our Directors’ Code of Ethics and the Board Charter are the primary internal documents to assist existing and future Board members in the exercise of their fiduciary duties and to assess such performance collectively and individually. During the financial year, none of the Directors were charged or convicted or fined or reprimanded for any offences (excluding traffic offences). ii. Employee Handbook Our Employee Handbook (“Handbook”) explains matters pertaining to employment with the Group. The Handbook applies to all employees of the Group and enables employees to have a quick and easy reference to human capital policies, procedures and practices. iii. Code of Business Conduct All employees are required to familiarise themselves with the Group’s Code of Business Conduct upon employment. It reinforces integrity as the Group’s core value by providing guidance for moral and ethical behaviour that is expected from all employees. Every 6 months, all employees and our EXCO are to reaffirm their compliance with the Code by filling out a questionnaire. This process is managed by our Group Internal Auditor and provides a means by which we can document awareness of the said Code and check compliance with the Code and other policies including our Whistleblowing Policy. The feedback from the questionnaire is considered by the EXCO and further deliberated by the ARMC. There were no reported irregularities or breaches for this reporting period under review.
