Code of Conduct

Setting the direction needed to achieve our aim to operate with a high level of ethics in line with our values is Amvico’s Code of Conduct and Supplier Code of Conduct. We aspire to operate with a high level of ethics in all our home markets. To achieve this, we are supported by our Code of Conduct and Supplier Code of Conduct, which each explains the behaviours we expect from our supply chain and other partners.

Our Code of Conduct is based on Amvico’s values, and those values are more than mere words – they are how we strive to live every day. They set the expectation for conducting our business in responsible and sustainable ways – enabling us to be a trusted partner to our customers. Amvico’s Code of Conduct is key to bringing our values to life.

Our Code of Conduct establishes how we should conduct ourselves in interactions with fellow employees, our customers, the communities in which we operate and other stakeholders. It provides Amvico employees with hands-on guidance on how to act in accordance with our values – specifically to act ethically and transparently. The Code provides many examples to help employees apply the concepts in daily life. We launched our latest Code of Conduct on January, 2018. It is supplemented by our Supplier Code of Conduct. Amvico’s Code of Conduct is also available at request from enquiries@amvico.co.uk.

Open culture

Our Code of Conduct provides employees with direction, but they will still face dilemmas involving ethics. We promote a transparent workplace culture in which ethics is openly and regularly discussed, including with “value moments” on the commencement of meetings. Through this, we want employees to be comfortable raising ethical questions and dilemmas with their supervisors and others. All employees need to feel empowered to report instances of non-compliance with our Code.

Reporting concerns

Each Amvico team has an ethics team-leader that investigates all reports. One way to make reports is by calling our main phone line. This is accessible to both employees and outside parties including customers, suppliers, and subcontractors.

Straightforward guidance

To provide straightforward guidance, Amvico’s Code of Conduct is structured into three sections:

1. Our commitment
at our workplace

About managing Amvico’s assets responsibly and creating a fair, healthy, safe and inclusive workplace where we all can develop our professional skills, grow as individuals, and feel welcome.

2. Our commitment
in the marketplace

Relationships are founded on respect and mutual benefit, this is why we strive to understand and anticipate the needs of our customers, suppliers, partners and other stakeholders, why we conduct ourselves with integrity, why we act responsibly and fairly, why we strive to do our best when it comes to delivering on quality, on time and on budget, and to do better than expected.

3. Our commitment
to society

We are an integral part of society, which is why we strive to find new means of minimising our environmental footprint, promote fair competition, and improve the communities in which we live and work.

Customers

Our customers are varied, and include both domestic and commercial clients, but we look for a common purpose and aim to work with those who share our values.

Our approach

Our relationships with clients are most productive when we are involved at an early stage. This allows us to establish and work together towards common aims that serve our client’s customers and provides the best environment for us to add value for them and their customers. We work on conventional contracts, in joint venture, and on frameworks and in partnership depending on the project requirements and the customer.

Health & Safety

We are committed to ensuring that everyone who works with and for us returns home safely and healthy at the end of the working day. Amvico takes all necessary measures to ensure high standards of safety, health, and welfare at the work place for all its employees, clients, and sub-contractors. We will always fulfil our moral and legal responsibilities under Health and Safety at Work Act. It is our policy to perform all aspects of our work in the safest practical manner consistent with the accepted standards.

As a responsible employer, Amvico recognises the “duty of care” both to clients and employees. We recognise that current Health and Safety at Work legislation and Construction Design Management regulations represent the minimum standard, which should, and will be, applied at all times. In addition to meeting current legislation, we will work closely with you to ensure that our site(s) reflect our own high standards in respect to the specific risks present with each project. Our contracts and project managers will ensure that these standards are applied.

A culture of care and concern

Fostering a culture of care and concern for others is at the heart of our Injury-Free Environment programme. This is accompanied by the most rigorous application of best practice health and safety processes and procedures – adhering to occupational CSCS health and safety standards as a minimum.

Every Amvico worker must feel empowered to never accept unsafe behaviour. We have a no-blame culture: learning from accidents and incidents, however they occur, is key to protecting people better in the future.

Safer

Think safety first. Formal processes and standards help to keep us safe at work, but it’s you and me who make safety part of our culture. Work safely or not at all.

Healthier

Look after mind and body. Take care of your health. Exercise, rest and a good diet all contribute to being healthy and having a positive mental attitude, so we can live life to the full.

Happier

Let’s enjoy life both at work and at home. Friends and family are important, and so are your relationships at work. Keep a healthy balance and get the best of both worlds.

Health, safety and wellbeing

Being healthy is important too. It’s vital we take care of ourselves, to live life to the full and perform to the best of our abilities. This means eating healthily, exercising regularly, and finding the right work-life balance. Our health and safety vision is focused around Safer, Healthier, Happier.

Culture

Ensure a culture of care and concern through our Injury-Free Environment (IFE) programme. Develop leadership skills of entire workforce and create a culture which enables people to stand in their commitment to IFE every day.

Competence

Develop health and safety education which inspires and empowers people to work safely or not at all. Develop an equal emphasis on occupational health.

Communication

Create an environment to enable collaboration and open discussion. Ensure clear, consistent communications while utilising a range of channels to reach all stakeholders.

Contractors

Engage our supply chain so they are fully aligned to our vision and values. Promote two‑way dialogue to create an equitable learning experience with clear competency requirements

Controls

Ensure we have effective systems in place and they are adhered to consistently through our integrated business management system. Controls and systems to include the management of process risks.

Health and wellbeing

Focus on workplace, worker, and wellbeing. Develop skills and capabilities to preserve, protect and promote the health and wellbeing of our employees so they can be ‘the best they can be’.

Amvico going green

For us, being green is about doing more while using fewer resources and thinking about the environmental consequences of everything we do.We are committed to making an active contribution to a green society. By analysing products and technologies, we incorporate ever-more sustainable options into our processes and delivery. Throughout the entire construction, development, and maintenance process, we embrace green wherever we can.

This approach is embedded in how we work and comes as a result of our long-term commitment to showing leadership in green. We have the expertise to help and encourage our customers to deliver their own demanding environmental ambitions. It also helps us to be a better neighbour in the communities in which we work, and guides us in the efficient use of natural resources.

Leadership in green

Our aim is to be the leading green contractor and developer. Our presence allows us to share and build knowledge across all of our areas of operation. We aspire to always present to our customers the benefits of green solutions and, through our active roles in leading local green organisations, we are pushing our industry to do more.
