A major ethics and compliance programme, known as The IMI Way, has been adopted across the Group and is led by our Chief Compliance Officer, Jo Morgan. Reports on compliance and The IMI Way programme are considered at every regular meeting of the Board and the Executive Committee.
The Board takes account of the social, environmental and ethical impact of its decisions and The IMI Way Code of Responsible Business incorporates a series of corporate policies and standards for responsible business across the Group.
At a Group level, responsible business activity is co-ordinated through a steering group chaired by Sean Toomes, a Executive Committee member, and key issues of corporate social responsibility are identified, monitored and addressed through the Group’s general business processes and risk management framework.
The Company satisfies the FTSE4Good global corporate responsibility criteria and has been awarded membership of the FTSE4Good Index. In addition, in 2010 IMI retained its membership of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and IMI is a signatory to the UN Global Compact.
