A message from the CEO
The culture of our organisation and how
we work together to achieve our vision is
critical to our success.

I am proud to work as part of a team that


not only lives our Values every day, but
also sets and upholds high standards
of conduct, ethics and integrity. These
standards guide our actions, decisions
and behaviour, and contribute to the
reputation Caltex has in the marketplace,
with our customers, shareholders and the
communities in which we operate.

Built on the foundation of our Values,


this Code of Conduct brings together
all these standards into a single,
straightforward guide for our daily work.
It sets out expectations about how we
conduct our business - with each other,
our customers, suppliers, contractors,
external stakeholders such as the media,
shareholders, government, as well as other
partners to our business.

I ask that you read it, understand it and


seek further information whenever you
need it. In addition, I ask that you hold each
other accountable on a daily basis to the
standards set in this valuable document.

Each of us has a part to play in upholding


Caltex’s reputation to ensure our ongoing
success, and I look forward to your
continued support in this regard.

Stay safe

Julian Segal
Managing Director & CEO

Regulatory authorities
Caltex operates in a complex and highly regulated
environment. During your employment or
engagement with Caltex, you may have to deal
with officers of regulatory authorities in the course
of exercising their powers. There are specific
procedures that all Caltex officers, employees and
subcontractors must follow when dealing with
regulatory authorities and their officers.
It is vital that you follow these procedures to
ensure that you and Caltex comply with the law in
relation to assisting regulatory authorities in their
investigations.
If you are in doubt or have any questions, you should
seek advice from the Caltex Legal Department.
In the first instance, contact your usual legal
representative. If your usual legal representative
is not available, other members of the Caltex
Legal Department will assist. If after hours legal
assistance is required, please contact the Caltex
Duty Manager or the Executive General Manager,
Legal and Corporate Affairs.
