The Declaration of Private Interest Policy establishes a clear framework for identifying, declaring, and managing private interests that may give rise to actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest. It outlines employees' obligations to disclose secondary employment, business ownership, directorships, and other commercial interests, while defining the approval process for external business activities. The policy promotes transparency, accountability, and ethical decision-making by ensuring that personal interests do not compromise the Company's operations, confidential information, productivity, or commercial interests.
