Evolving along with Business Practices

Our Code of Ethics and compliance policies live and evolve with the development of our business in the competitive world. We continuously evaluate all current laws and regulations relating to these areas and amend our policies accordingly, in line with the latest best practices. We also take the opinions of our stakeholders into account on these matters and consider their requests relating to legality and propriety. We also seek to support our ethical conduct with various initiatives, including the Prysmian Helpline program.

Updates to any of our policies are broadcast across the Company and made readily available to all employees and associated companies.

In a rapidly changing world where information has significant value and there is growing interoperability between networks, systems, and applications, it is increasingly complex to manage and protect information assets, ensuring compliance with applicable regulations.

This complexity is particularly relevant for manufacturers continuing to drive extensive innovation in products and services, manufacturing processes, and the industrial ecosystem to compete in this changing global marketplace by adopting new technologies to achieve customer-centricity and increase value-added services and business efficiency.
