Business integrity

Sandfire is committed to ethical business conduct in all our interactions and has established policies, standards and procedures that actively promote ethical and responsible behaviours and decision making.

Our Code of Conduct (Code) sets out the expectations for how we act and make decisions in the complex global environment in which we operate. It describes the standards of conduct we expect and applies to everyone who works with Sandfire, including our Board of Directors, executives, employees and contractors. In FY25, we reviewed and updated our Code.

Integral to our Code and The Sandfire Way is our philosophy of ‘Don’t Walk Past’, which empowers everyone to Speak Up when they see something that isn’t right. When a concern is raised it is assessed and triaged in accordance with our Incident Notification and Investigation Group Standard. We support people who Speak Up about behaviours which do not align with our expectations of work-related conduct.

Concerns can be raised through a number of channels (including anonymously) or through leaders. Our Speak Up Policy details the channels available for raising concerns and the process Sandfire follows. We do not tolerate any form of retaliation against anyone who raises a concern or participates in an investigation. Retaliation is a breach of our Speak Up Policy, the Code and our values. The Board is regularly updated on business conduct cases.

Anti-bribery and corruption

We do not tolerate any form of bribery or corruption and are committed to complying with applicable laws and regulations in every country in which we operate. Our expectations are clearly outlined in our Code and our Supplier Code of Conduct, as well as our Business Conduct Policy and Procurement and Suppliers Group Standard. This includes never offering, accepting or requesting a bribe or secret commission, never making a facilitation payment and only offering or receiving anything of value that is reasonable, appropriate and serves a lawful and legitimate business purpose.

We continue to counter corrupt conduct through third-party due diligence and by avoiding partnerships with high-risk entities.
