TEEKAY'S COMMITMENT TO THE UNGC TEN PRINCIPLES

Our Standards of Business Conduct are an extension of our Core Values and reflect our continued commitment to manage our business activities with integrity. We treat people fairly and respect human rights. We take allegations seriously and address all such concerns that are raised regarding these policies.

1. Respect human rights

2. Not be complicit in human rights abuses

We recognize that doing the right thing means ensuring that our business suppliers and partners share our commitment to uphold business ethics. Teekay reviews new business partners through a compliance due diligence system and rejects any partners that present an unacceptable risk. We also expect our subcontractors to promote workplaces that are free of human rights violations.

3. Uphold freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining

We respect the right of employees to join associations and choose representative organizations for the purpose of engaging in collective bargaining in a manner consistent with applicable local laws, rules, and regulations. A significant portion of our seafarers are employed under collective bargaining agreements.

Teekay is accredited to ISO 14001 and we require our contractors and suppliers to implement similarenvironmental management programs.

8. Promote greater environmental responsibility

Sustainability is one of our core values and ensures the long-term health and success of our people, our business, and the surroundings we work in.

Since 2010, Teekay has published an annual Sustainability Report that outlines our social, safety and environmental performance. Over the coming years, we intend to further strengthen our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) commitment and performance as we work towards our vision of being the most trusted shipping company.

9. Encourage environmentally friendly technologies

Teekay is a leader in environmentally friendly technologies. We were the first company in the world to order a MEGI-powered newbuild LNG carrier and across our crude/product tanker fleet, we made the decision to adopt low-sulphur fuel instead of installing scrubbers to comply with the IMO 2020 standards. To support decarbonization in the shipping industry, we are also embarking on new industry partnerships to drive necessary technological developments.

10. Work against corruption in all its forms

We take a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption and are committed to acting professionally, fairly and in an honest and ethical manner in all our business dealings and relationships. Mandatory business ethics training is provided to all shore-based personnel and our seafarers receive training through our onboard Training Officers program. Teekay is a member of The Maritime Anti-Corruption Network (MACN).
