"This Human Rights Briefng Paper, dated July 2016, is a milestone for us – it is the first time we are reporting on our Human Rights performance using the UN Guiding Principles Reporting Framework (the “Reporting Framework”), published in February 2015."

Total is committed to respecting internationally recognized human rights standards within its operations.

"Total’s commitments to Human Rights are ar- ticulated in its core document – our Code of Conduct – and several key guides, policies and initiatives. The embedding of Human Rights in our Fundamental Principles of Purchasing means that we also expect our suppliers to comply with standards equivalent to our own.

Code of Conduct

Introduced in 2000, the Group’s Code of Conduct serves as a Group-wide primary

document for all employees, as well as for our stakeholders. In 2014, our Group Executive Committee endorsed a revision of the Code of Conduct to further enshrine Human Rights into its principles, identifying the topic as a priority business principle critical to Total’s success as a responsible company. An updated Code of Conduct was thus published in 2015. Our Code of Conduct is available in eighteen languages, distributed to our employees and available on our website."

"Total provides support for employees worldwide to help ensure that they respect Human Rights in the work that they do for Total.

To raise awareness and help employees res- pect Human Rights, Total has set up corporate communication channels such as the Ethics and Human Rights intranet sites and intranet videos on key Human Rights topics. We also provide speci c e-learning programs and training

tailored to the various challenges encountered on the ground.

Actions are also taken to raise awareness among Total’s external stakeholders, such as training on responsible security for its private security providers.

Speci c information on some of our awareness raising and training initiatives are provided in Section 3 of this publication."
