We assess the suitability of accepting external directorships
There is nothing inherently unethical if an employee holds an external directorship.
However, some directorships can create a perception of a conflict of interest and a risk of non-compliance with
competition law. This can negatively affect Sasol’s reputation and may constitute an offence.
To protect our reputation:
We limit external
directorships and only allow
external directorships as
provided for in the Group’s
External Directorship Policy;
and
We consider external
directorships carefully and
prohibit our people from being
a director of our competitors,
potential competitors or
companies we do business
with or donate to.
Key external directorship resources:
Sasol’s Policy statement on Cross Directorships; and
Group External Directorship Policy.
Please contact the office of the Group Company Secretary for additional guidance on external
directorships.
