Compliance and business ethics continue to drive our strategic vision and operational agenda as we engage with clients, suppliers and local communities on critical issues such as human rights, anti-bribery, health, safety and the environment. This successful alignment is the responsibility of all our personnel, led by our dedicated compliance team.
Through engagement with industry working groups, we remain at the forefront of international industry best practice, compliance and regulation changes. These standards are maintained throughout all areas of our operations, driving our policies and operational procedures. Our commitment is clearly demonstrated in the following policies:
Castor Vali Health & Safety Policy
Castor Vali Environment Policy
Castor Vali Complaints & Escalation Procedure
Castor Vali Whistleblowing Policy
Castor Vali Security Management Policy

Local Content
We have a clear policy and long-term strategy towards Local Content supported by our locally incorporated regional subsidiaries. We aim to create long-term employment opportunities and promote development of professional skills benefiting the local communities in which we operate.
We also have extensive experience of supporting our clients in meeting their own contractual Local Content obligations, specifically those working within the Oil and Gas Industry where this is often required under regulatory frameworks. This frequently involves facilitating engagement with the local communities and managing the recruitment and training of local personnel.
