Code of conduct

BASEFARM CODE OF CONDUCT

No code can address every situation that we are likely to encounter, nor is the Code a substitute for our responsibility and accountability to exercise good judgement and obtain guidance on proper business conduct. Ask your manager if you are in doubt if you are in breach on how to handle a given situation.

• The company part shall also be used to guide ourselves when we decide on which suppliers to use. Basefarm Code of Conduct – Employees
• We also have one CoC we can give to our suppliers in order to give them some guidance in what we expect from them. Basefarm Code of Conduct – Suppliers
