Nishat Power Ltd.

Code of business conduct starts with the health and safety of

its employees and the perseverance of environment. A quick glance at their
Code of Business Conduct reveals a clear theme: integrity. This theme acts as
the foundation for every component of the code of conduct, including conflict
of interests, insider trading, use of company data, workplace violence and
harassment and financial integrity.

Strengths:
Nishat’s code of conduct is well organized, comprehensively written and is very
easy to understand. Their code of conduct reveals commitment of leadership
towards business ethics as it explicitly mentions ethical practices expected from
its directors and executive managers. Nishat’s code of conduct acts as guidance
for decision making as all of their policies and practices are based on these
codes of conduct. Overall their code of conduct is visually appealing which
makes it interesting for employees to read.

Weakness:
Urdu translation of the code of ethics is not given by the company. This means
employees who cannot read and understand English won’t be able to act on all
these business ethics. If some person is unable to understand these codes of
conduct, then it’s not mentioned from where an employee can get clarity on
these points. Although its mentioned that all employees should adhere to the
code of conduct, but it’s not mentioned what actions would be taken if they are
not followed. Nishat doesn’t has a frequently asked questions section that
employees can reference when facing uncertainty. Certain companies use these
Q&A sections to help readers understand how they should act in certain
situations.
