RAISING A CONCERN<br />

While <strong>the</strong> majority <strong>of</strong> people try to do <strong>the</strong> right thing and behave in a<br />

responsible way, occasional deviations from acceptable practice may occur.<br />

Usually this is not deliberate but arises because it is unclear what is<br />

expected. It is only through raising concerns and addressing inappropriate<br />

and unlawful behaviour that we will be able to maintain <strong>the</strong> integrity <strong>Santos</strong><br />

requires to successfully undertake its business. You are encouraged to raise<br />

concerns relating to business conduct and <strong>Santos</strong>’ leaders and directors<br />

are required to be receptive to issues raised. It is particularly important<br />

that you raise any concerns with your leader before taking action. The Q&A<br />

section and <strong>the</strong> Reporting Misconduct Policy also cover alternative reporting<br />

avenues where this may not be appropriate.<br />

You are also encouraged to challenge o<strong>the</strong>rs in an appropriate manner who<br />

you believe might be acting in a way that contravenes this code or <strong>Santos</strong>’<br />

values. Where a breach or potential breach <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Code</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Conduct</strong> has<br />

occurred you are encouraged to discuss <strong>the</strong> matter with your leader in <strong>the</strong><br />

first instance. Your leader will <strong>the</strong>n be responsible for taking appropriate<br />

follow-up action on your behalf.<br />

Issue resolution and escalation processes exist under a number <strong>of</strong> <strong>Santos</strong><br />

policies and enterprise agreements. Where <strong>the</strong>se normal channels have been<br />

exhausted or are inappropriate in <strong>the</strong> circumstances, you should use <strong>the</strong><br />

reporting mechanism available through <strong>the</strong> Reporting Misconduct Policy.<br />

Under that policy, reports may be made confidentially to <strong>the</strong> independent<br />
