QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS<br />

interview process alone. If you declare your interest, it may be possible for<br />

you to participate in an interview, provided you remove yourself from <strong>the</strong><br />

final decision-making process for that particular candidate.<br />

Can I use my corporate AMEX card or Visa Purchasing Card to buy my<br />

groceries provided I pay <strong>the</strong> account?<br />

No. Despite <strong>the</strong> fact that corporate credit cards are issued in your personal<br />

name, corporate AMEX cards are provided for <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> payment <strong>of</strong> all<br />

business related travel and entertainment expenses only. Please refer to <strong>the</strong><br />

Travel & Expenses Policy for more information. Likewise, Visa Purchasing<br />

Cards are provided specifically for <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> business-related purchases.<br />

What laws apply when I’m working in ano<strong>the</strong>r country?<br />

You should abide by all laws within that foreign country. However, where<br />

<strong>the</strong> laws or customs in that o<strong>the</strong>r country are different from Australia’s<br />

laws, you should abide by <strong>the</strong> law that is most conservative or strict.<br />

It will be uncommon for foreign country laws and Australian law to be<br />

contradictory to <strong>the</strong> extent that you cannot comply with both at <strong>the</strong> same<br />

time. If any such instances occur you should consult <strong>the</strong> Office <strong>of</strong> General<br />

Counsel for legal advice.<br />

I understand as an employee that I’m required to abide by <strong>Santos</strong>’ policies<br />

and procedures, but what about <strong>the</strong> contractors who work with me?<br />

Certain <strong>Santos</strong> policies apply equally to contractors; in particular, those<br />

relating to health, safety, environment, confidentiality, equal opportunity<br />

and o<strong>the</strong>r legislated minimum standards.<br />
