Kazatomprom promotes its ethics and compliance principles among suppliers

JSC National Atomic Company "Kazatomprom" (“Kazatomprom” or “the Company”) reports that on July 19 the Company's compliance officers held a seminar for representatives of KazAzot JSC (one of the Company's suppliers) on the principles of ethics and compliance of Kazatomprom.

The meeting was held as part of Kazatomprom's initiative to promote a culture of integrity, including the formation of anti-corruption standards among Kazakhstan's business community.

As a public company that has carried out initial public offerings on the Astana International Exchange and London Stock Exchange, Kazatomprom complies with international standards for public companies, consistently outlines and follows its strategy, strives to implement best practices in corporate governance and provides all stakeholders with equal access to information. Of particular importance in carrying out this work is interaction with external audiences, including systematic work with the Company's major suppliers and contractors - seminars dedicated to the principles of Kazatomprom's ethics and compliance are held for them.

During the seminars, contractor representatives are provided with information on the principles of the Supplier and Contractor Code of Ethics, counterparty compliance review procedures, anti-corruption measures taken at Kazatomprom, and Kazatomprom's values in terms of health and safety and ethical business conduct.

The Supplier and Contractor Code of Ethics has been implemented in the Kazatomprom Group of Companies since mid-2021 as an integral annex to procurement contracts, as part of the Company's general policy to follow global practices and as an element of improving the performance of a public company.

During the meeting with representatives of KazAzot JSC, the parties discussed cooperation in terms of further development of the culture of integrity, considered topical issues and proposed practical solutions.
