Metrostav DIZ a.s. (hereinafter “Metrostav DIZ” or “the Company”) takes the issue of compliance and anti-corruption very seriously and considers it a fundamental aspect of its business activities.
Metrostav DIZ upholds a zero-tolerance policy towards corruption and any criminal conduct. The Company does not tolerate any form of unlawful or unethical behaviour and firmly condemns such actions.
For this reason, Metrostav DIZ has developed and implemented a comprehensive Compliance Management System (CMS) combining the principles of international standards ISO 37301 (Compliance Management Systems) and ISO 37001 (Anti-Bribery Management Systems), which are fully integrated into the Company’s management and organisational documentation.
The purpose of the CMS is to prevent, detect and respond to conduct that may indicate unlawful or unethical behaviour, corruption, or conflicts of interest.
The CMS is built upon two pillars:
-
An internal corporate regulation governing compliance obligations and binding both the Company and its employees.
-
The Compliance Policy, a binding document of Metrostav DIZ, applicable internally and externally, declaring the Company’s commitment to legal compliance, anti-corruption, anti-bribery, and conflict-of-interest principles to all its business partners and third parties.
To ensure oversight of the CMS implementation, the Company has established the role of a Compliance Officer, who has been granted the necessary authority in this area. The Compliance Officer’s main responsibilities include identifying requirements essential for CMS effectiveness and functionality, monitoring and analysing its performance, and ensuring compliance with external regulatory and legal obligations.
For the purpose of submitting any compliance-related notifications or concerns, the Company has established a dedicated e-mail address: compliance.DIZ@metrostav.cz, which is managed directly by the Compliance Officer of Metrostav DIZ.
Metrostav Group Code of Ethics and Ethics Line
In addition to its internal CMS, Metrostav DIZ, as a member of the Metrostav Group, has adopted and implemented key elements of the Metrostav Group Criminal Compliance Programme, which includes the Metrostav Group Code of Ethics and the Metrostav Group Ethics Line.
The Metrostav Group Code of Ethics is a binding document expressing the moral principles of the Metrostav Group. It sets out the rules of conduct and behaviour for all Group companies, employees, and business partners.
The Metrostav Group Ethics Line is a communication tool for reporting inappropriate, unethical, or unlawful behaviour that violates the Metrostav Group Code of Ethics. Reports can be submitted by both employees and external parties via the Group’s website or through a dedicated telephone line.
More information about the Metrostav Group Code of Ethics and the Metrostav Group Ethics Line is available here.
