"Enbridge has built on its foundation of operating excellence by adhering to a strong set of corporate values, and by adopting and implementing a number of corporate responsibility policies and practices. Acting ethically and responsibly and supporting the needs of communities, our investors, governments, our employees and others contributes positively to society and helps us build lasting relationships with our stakeholders".
Patrick D. Daniel
President & Chief Executive Officer
Enbridge Inc.
At Enbridge, conducting business in a responsible manner includes:
Conducting business in a socially responsible and ethical manner
Protecting the environment and the safety of people
Providing economic and other benefits to the communities where we operate
Supporting universal human rights; and
Employing a variety of policies, programs and practices to manage corporate governance and ensure fair, full and timely disclosure.
Enbridge has a clearly articulated set of corporate values, and at home and abroad, employees must adhere to the Company's Statement on Business Conduct. This code of conduct outlines the expected standards of behaviour and ethics in all our business endeavours, and is a condition of employment for everyone at Enbridge.
In keeping with our commitment to transparency and corporate social responsibility, in January 2002, Enbridge adopted the internationally recognized Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights, which deal with responsible corporate action in 'zones of conflict'. Enbridge has incorporated the Voluntary Principles into its Statement on Business Conduct, which further strengthens an already strong code of conduct.
In 2003, Enbridge became a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact, an international initiative in support of human rights, labour and the environment.
