The relationship between the FCC Group
and its employees must be based on the
loyalty
generated by common interests.
In this sense, the Group respects its em-

legal and do not compete with or give rise
to potential conflicts of interest with their
responsibilities as FCC employees.

Employees duties:
- Every FCC employee should
avoid
possible conflicts
between their per-
sonal interests and those of the Com-
pany. They shall therefore refrain from
representing the Company, partici-
pating in or influencing management
processes as well as decision-making
in which, either directly or indirectly,
they, or any third parties close to
them, have a personal interest.
- Any employee
who suspects a po-
tential conflict of interest
should
make it known to their line manager
and to the Compliance Office. Their
line manager should inform the Com-
pliance Office of the measures that
have been taken or that will be taken
in order to avoid the conflict. The
Compliance Office will assess the ef-
fectiveness of the proposed measures
and, in the event of any discrepancy,
shall notify the line manager of the
measures which must be adopted.
