Corporate Leadership in the World Economy

To refresh the mind: An initiative by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan Aimed at the international business community To promote ten principles on Human Rights, the Protection of the Environment, Labour Standards and fighting corruption throughout the company network in the geographical areas in which the company operates

New Principle 10 : “Businesses should work against corruption in all its forms including extortion and bribery”

Principle 10 (Anti-Corruption) Fully in line and complementary to efforts in the inspection industry to combat corruption Reflects what is also codified in the IFIA Compliance Code

Why companies participate: Demonstrating leadership in corporate social responsibility Increasing stakeholder value Building relationships with other like minded companies Building relationships with society, government bodies, NGO’s and international organisations Further maximisation of business opportunities

Saybolt and the Global Compact so far: HIV/AIDS and the workplace HIV/AIDS Awareness HIV/AIDS Prevention Health & Safety in the workplace Activities reported to the UN Global Compact Office

Theme 2004: Environment

The main activities 2004: Review of the Saybolt Environmental policy and its implementation, possible recommendations

Implementation Activities 2004 Environmental checklists prepared and distributed Process and return the checklists on current policies by 1 July 2004 Main focus on lab and office waste management / sample disposal Reporting during this Area Managers Meeting, October 2004

Main Findings: Saybolt-Corelab environmental policy implemented across the board Main basis for environmental compliance: local/domestic legislation 8 Locations report non-implementation of “cradle-grave” system for samples, but did they understand the question? 6 Locations indicate need for technical assistance

Main Findings (cont.): 38 Locations lack any form of office-waste separation plan (paper, glass, plastics, batteries) - At some locations not required by law, but facilities available -Some locations not required by law and no facilities available

Staff Suggestions -Reducing waste (paper & glassware) -Recycling (paper in particular) -Increase staff environmental awareness

More staff suggestions….. -Design smoking rooms -Increase pest-control -Increase small office space -More A/C units -Improve working environment: put potted plants in the office

Question In case e.g. waste separation is not required but facilities are provided at location: does Saybolt want to aim for a “Best in Class” approach?

Recommendations Review current environmental policy with the appropriate Quality Assurance Departments Consider formulating a pro-active “best in class” program starting from current “minimum standard-compliance” Continue to increase awareness Provide technical assistance where required
