In April 2010, we amended our Employee Code of Conduct to, among other things, clarify the consequences of noncompliance with the Code, and incorporate employee conduct standards that previously were found in other company policy documents. The Code applies to all employees, including officers, of PG&E Corporation and its affiliates and subsidiaries, including Pacific Gas and Electric Company. The Code also incorporates the "code of ethics" required by SEC regulations and stock exchange rules. |
Message from Peter Darbee and Chris Johns
To reach our vision of becoming the leading utility in the United States in 2014, each of us must be accountable for embracing PG&E's1 values as we work with one another and with our customers, communities, business partners, and other stakeholders.
At every level and in every part of the company, our values must guide and align our behaviors as we make business decisions that impact our daily operations.
To help ensure this practice, this Employee Code of Conduct outlines our values and describes our standards for conduct, compliance, and avoiding conflicts of interest. It supports our continuing commitment to honest and ethical conduct and compliance with laws, rules, and regulations, and our company policies, standards, and procedures.
Use our values and this Code as guides whenever you have a question about the right thing to do. For additional guidance, talk to your supervisor or Human Resources representative, or call the Compliance and Ethics Helpline at 888-231-2310.
Thank you for your ongoing commitment to ensure that, together, we are all living the values that will help us achieve our vision.
