Business ethics



 
 
Our objectives

Heineken wants to run its business with respect for international and national laws and regulations and in compliance with ethical standards. It expects its employees to obey the legal requirements in the host country and to take their business decisions solely in the best interest of the Company and its stakeholders.

Our strategy

In order to reach our objectives we have adopted an approach based on the following pillars:
  • The Heineken Code of Business Conduct containing the rules that we want our employees to follow (in place on a country-by-country basis since 2005)
  • The Heineken Whistle-Blowing Procedure
  • Audit programmes designed to measure the uptake and effectiveness of these instruments.
