This is based on our belief that Compliance Department cannot be solely responsible for compliance and internal assurance, but rather, it is a shared responsibility. Above and beyond that, the leadership team together with every employee will have to ensure compliance is maintained within MISC. Management Scorecard MISC is committed to foster a strong corporate governance, business ethics and compliance culture. Beginning in 2022, every business unit and service unit have a compliance scorecard that tied to their annual performance and remuneration.

Talk with your supervisor, Human Resource division or Compliance department SUPPORT Do not underestimate the power of support. It can help a colleague to stand up and take action ‘See. Speak. Support’ Since 2017, we have been implementing the ‘See. Speak. Support’ campaign to raise employee awareness of MISC's key CoBE elements. Aside from that, the campaign aims to educate our employees on our six Compliance Legal Areas (CLA) and whistleblowing channels. The Campaign has three main themes as follows: *CLA : Ethics and Integrity, Personal Data Protection, Economic Sanctions, Export Control, Competition and Human Rights & Modern Slavery OPERATING RESPONSIBLY BUSINESS REVIEW COMPLIANCE AND ETHICS CULTURE At MISC, every employee is expected to have the right attitude and behaviour towards business ethics in order to create a sound compliance culture. This is critical to support and sustain an effective Compliance Management Framework towards achieving our intended outcomes. A strong culture of compliance is about infusing ethics into an organisation’s operations and MISC has a clear set of published values and expectations for employees to behave in a manner that upholds these values.
