SASOL CODE OF CONDUCT (THE CODE)
11
NON-RETALIATION/
WHISTLEBLOWER PROTECTION
Sasol promotes a culture in which all Stakeholders, especially employees, are encouraged to speak up and
report unethical, illegal, or undesirable conduct involving Sasol and those engaged with it, without fear of
retaliation or reprisal.
Sasol strictly prohibits any form of retaliation, intimidation, harassment or victimisation against a person who,
in good faith, makes a report or raises a concern that he or she reasonably believes to be a violation of Sasol’s
Code.
Retaliation against employees is prohibited even if their good faith call reports or concerns are proven
unfounded by an investigation. Employees who experience retaliation as a result of speaking up against
suspected unethical conduct, are urged to immediately report these incidents to the EthicsLine providing all the
details of the alleged victimisation or retaliation.
Should anyone within Sasol attempt to retaliate against or victimise an employee for speaking up and making a
report in good faith, then such a person will face disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal.
Reports that are made to Sasol in bad faith, or which knowingly contain false and misleading information, or
which are malicious, are unacceptable and may may lead to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal, or
other corrective action.
Additional information in this regard can be obtained from the Sasol Group Ethics Office and in the Sasol
Whistleblowing Policy.
WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT ISN’T RIGHT.
When you see behaviours that are inconsistent with our values and our Code or policies please take responsibility and speak up!
