When it comes to Ethics and Integrity, AES Brasil
does not make concessions or exceptions. We are
committed to ensuring ethics and transparency in all
our businesses. Having a culture of integrity makes
our company more attractive to investors, suppliers
and customers, who seek to invest in companies with
sustainable and transparent business models.
Our global Ethics and Compliance Program is
audited by an independent company hired by the
AES Corporation, and is anchored on the main anti-
corruption laws applicable: Brazil's Clean Company
Act (Lei da Empresa Limpa); US Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act (FCPA); Organization for Economic Co-
operation and Development (OECD) Convention on
Combating Bribery; UK Bribery Act; and other local
laws. Additionally, we are signatories to UN Global
Compact's Rede Brasil and the Brazilian Business Pact
for Integrity and against Corruption.
AES Values Guide
AES Values Guide sets forth the business principles
and practices that must be applied in performing our
duties as well as in relationships with our customers
and suppliers.
The Values Guide applies to all members of the
Board of Directors, the Statutory Executive Board,
the members of the Fiscal Council and employees,
regardless of their position or role at the AES Brasil
operation headquartered in Brazil, as well as those
of its direct or indirect subsidiaries. It should also
be observed by temporary workers, contractors,
consultants, agents, representatives and all who carry
out works for AES Brasil, who must ensure that their
actions while holding said positions meet high integrity
standards compatible with those expected from our
own employees.
Some of the initiatives that help us maintain our culture
of ethics and integrity are the biannual training activity
on AES Values Guide, as well as the release of monthly
notices on the Compliance Policies and proceedings
covering Anti-corruption, Conflicts of Interest,
Donations and Sponsorship, Gifts and Entertainment.
Both are provided to all employees.
In 2022, all our employees received training on
the Values Guide, which further contributed to
disseminating AES's ethics culture throughout
our value chain. It is worth noting that, in 2022, all
Compliance policies were updated and approved by
the Board of Directors.
