We align our policies with relevant internationally recognised guidelines and standards. Our 'Global human rights policy' aligns with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, the International Bill of Human Rights, and the International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Our 'Just transition policy' is aligned with the UN Global Compact (UNGC) and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Our code of conduct for business partners adheres to several standards and conventions, including the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, the Maritime Labour Convention, IFC Performance Standards and the previously mentioned guidelines.

Our projects involve a diverse range of workers across the value chain, including those in upstream activities (such as refining, manufacturing, logistics, transportation, and mining and extraction of minerals and metals) and on-site construction, particularly in offshore operations. The latter includes workers at our project sites who are not part of our own workforce, such as subcontracted or temporary workers. These workers are materially impacted by our activities due to the nature of their work.
