Ethics

Home | Ethics

SikaGold International subscribes firmly to behaving ethically and abiding by the rule of law in the jurisdictions in which it operates.

The Group appreciates that business ethics extend beyond legal compliance, and form the foundation for a transparent, positive work culture.
The Board, recognising that good governance underpins value creation for all stakeholders and the sustainability of the business, provides ethical leadership and is ultimately responsible for our corporate governance.

SikaGold International also maintains policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, including those requiring that accurate accounts and records be maintained. These policies and procedures are used to raise employee and stakeholder awareness relating to bribery and corruption.

Our Code of Business Principles and Ethics sets out our expectations for the conduct of our directors, officers, employees, contractors and consultants and affirms our commitment to the highest standards of integrity and ethics in the conduct of our business.

Good citizenship and tax compliance

SikaGold International demonstrates good citizenship and attempts to proactively manage challenges. We employ a comprehensive approach, and strive to operate within the letter of the law, engage stakeholders, achieve compliance, and meet local employment and procurement commitments. We are guided by the work of other intergovernmental organisations such as the Intergovernmental Forum on Mining, Minerals, Metals and Sustainable Development and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

We engage on an ongoing basis with communities and governments, with a focus on competency, value creation and sharing, which, along with co-creating solutions with communities, are key strategies to maintain and increase trust levels.

SikaGold International actively supports the EITI. This underscores our belief that earning and sustaining our social licence to operate necessitates partnerships with government and community stakeholders in our operational countries, contributing to their long-term sustainability.

Our tax strategy, which is approved by the Board, articulates our commitment to contributing tax revenues to the economies of the nations where we conduct business and our adherence to transparent tax management practices. Our approach aligns with the ICMM’s Mining Principles and incorporates the organisation’s updated position statement on the transparency of mineral revenues
