At Celanese, our actions define us and our Company. To achieve our goals, we know that it takes honesty, integrity and compliance with the law. We embrace our responsibilities and strive to adhere to these standards to promote a better working environment and the continued success of our Company. It’s how we do business and how we do business truly matters. 

We all have the ability to influence the attitudes, actions and habits of those around us.  As members of the Celanese team, we agree that our influence comes with the responsibilities to: 

• Follow all applicable laws, regulations and our policies
• Live and promote our values
• Be respectful; act ethically and with integrity
• Create a positive, inclusive and collaborative culture where we feel comfortable seeking advice and raising concerns
• Safeguard the confidentiality of those who raise a concern in good faith and protect them from retaliation
• Protect our Company's financial integrity and reputation
• Take care that personal interests do not interfere with our Company loyalty
• Encourage third parties we engage to follow these standards
• Take appropriate action once aware of possible unethical behavior or violations of law

Compliance with our BCP is a condition of employment. We will take appropriate disciplinary action, which could include termination of employment, for breaches of our BCP. In some circumstances, if an employee has violated a law, the Company may notify relevant authorities, which may result in criminal prosecution.

Our culture of compliance is supported with annual training for employees on our Business Conduct Policy. Additional training on anti-corruption and competition law is provided annually to managers and employees in specific job roles. Training completion is monitored and documented in our learning management system. We also provide additional spot training as-needed on emerging issues based on ongoing risk analyses.

Help build our reputation on a foundation of trust. As a Celanese director, officer or team member, including subsidiaries and affiliates, we each agree to comply with our business and ethics guidelines to help make our Company a success. Employees in supervisory roles have a heightened duty to set the right example. Additionally, executive officers are held to the highest standards, and matters related to their compliance with our BCP will be referred to the Board of Directors or Board Committee, as appropriate. 

Any waivers of the Business Conduct Policy (BCP) for officers or Directors must be made and disclosed in accordance with the New York Stock Exchange Rules and applicable law.
