Training on and awareness of our compliance policies and procedures, as well as strong leadership, are critical components of our Ethics and Compliance programme. They ensure our employees and contractors understand the behaviour expected of them and provide guidance on how they can identify and practically approach ethics and compliance dilemmas in their daily work.
Our new joiners receive new employee compliance training and we provide mandatory ongoing training for all employees on a range of compliance risks and issues they may be confronted with in their roles. For those employees and contractors who do not have regular access to a work computer, we provide training in other ways, including induction sessions, pre-shift training and toolbox talks. In addition, Compliance facilitates awareness raising campaigns about compliance risks to educate employees on expected behaviours.
How we train our business partners
To manage our bribery and corruption exposure associated with our business partners, we implement a range of controls and processes, including anti-corruption training, using a risk-based approach. Training is also given to third parties in accordance with Glencore's Third Party Training and Monitoring Plan. Training requirements for third parties, including the frequency of training, vary according to the third party’s risk rating and include digital training as well as in-person anti-corruption and bribery training. Where relevant to their engagement, third parties are also enrolled in market conduct digital training.

The Singapore office held an Ethics and Compliance day to raise awareness on key Compliance risks and emphasise how we all play a critical role in promoting and ensuring a culture of ethics and compliance.
To mark the United Nations Anti-Corruption Day, on 10 December 2020, in collaboration with the newly created Congolese Anti-Corruption Agency (l’Agence de Prévention et de Lutte contre la Corruption – APLC), the Mining Chapter of Congolese Federation of Companies (FEC) and La Société Générale des Carrières et des Mines (Gécamines), Glencore sponsored an ethics and compliance conference in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The objective of the event was to bring together key stakeholders from business, government, and non-governmental organisations to discuss their experiences and approach to anti-bribery and corruption in the DRC. We introduced the audience to our Ethics and Compliance programme, our Values, and Code of Conduct, including our approach to anti-bribery and corruption and conflicts of interest. The panel included representatives from Gécamines, the FEC, and Glencore and closing remarks by the newly appointed Head of the APLC.
The Compliance Summit is an event organised by Corporate Compliance, which takes place at Glencore’s headquarters in Baar, Switzerland, over the course of two days . This Summit provides guidance to our Compliance Coordinators and Regional Compliance Officers, as well as training on the key compliance risks. The goal of this event is to help our Group Compliance members understand the importance of their role, in addition, to providing an opportunity to interact with fellow Glencore Compliance colleagues across the globe.
