Our Code of Conduct exists to help everyone at Drax 'do the right thing, always'.
We've created this document to provide you, as colleagues, with guidance for 'doing the right thing, always'. It should be referred to, as required, when carrying out your day-to-day work.
It shows what we expect from our Drax colleagues - both permanent employees and non-permanent workers - and anyone working on behalf of Drax. The Code also helps us to aim for and maintain high standards in everything we do.
This document features a range of individual, subject-specific codes to outline the principles we should all use in our work and in our behaviour. You can find further details in our supporting policies and guidance, where applicable.
If you're unsure what to do or you need assistance, refer to our ethical decision making guide (see page 7) or use the contact details provided in the 'Resources and contacts' section. Please refer to specific policies for relevance to non-permanent workers.
For more information and details of relevant tools and who to speak to, head to the Resources and contacts section, by clicking here.
You can navigate through the document using the buttons at the top of each page as well as the hyperlinks within the text.
Read the following pages to understand best practice – for when you're not sure what to do in a work-based situation, and for when you feel something isn't right.
On page 9, you can see our Code of Conduct principles in their entirety. This provides a good overview of what we stand for at Drax.
Read the individual sections – which are split into ‘People Positive, Climate Positive and Nature Positive’ – to get an overview of the subject matter’s context, and to understand the standards we expect of you.
