Uniper’s policies stipulate how we address environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. Our policies, business directives, and Code of Conduct are available to all employees. 

HSSE & Sustainability Policy 

The HSSE & Sustainability Policy Statement defines Uniper’s ambitions and priorities for HSSE and sustainability. It provides the framework for developing Uniper’s Strategic Sustainability Plan (SSP) and for evaluating its effectiveness. 

Uniper Code of Conduct 

Our Code of Conduct, which is binding for all employees, defines basic principles for a wide range of issues, such as combating corruption and human rights violations. It provides guidance and support for conducting business and behaving in the workplace in compliance with the law and company rules. Each year, members of the Board of Management and senior managers sign a written pledge to adhere to the code. The code is reviewed and updated periodically to ensure appropriateness and compliance with company and regulatory requirements. 

Supplier Code of Conduct 

Whenever possible, we strive to work with third parties whose values and principles are comparable to ours. We therefore require our suppliers to sign a declaration of compliance with our Supplier Code of Conduct. 

Know-Your-Counterparty Policy 

Uniper has in place a Know-Your-Counterparty (KYC) Business Policy. Its purpose is to enhance existing processes for identifying, verifying, and reporting the main compliance risks potentially posed by new counterparties before business deals are finalized. These risks include corruption, money laundering, terrorism financing, and the violation of economic sanctions. 

Uniper's Tax Transparency Report  

Our 2021 Tax Transparency Report highlights how we deal with tax issues and the tax contribution we made in the reporting year. 

Uniper Human Rights Policy Statement

In accordance with the German Supply Chain Duty of Care Act, Uniper has published its annual Human Rights Strategy Policy Statement, explaining our approach towards risk identification and management of these important topics.
