Integrity & Compliance
Infosys’ Ethics and Compliance program has two primary goals: upholding the values of Integrity and Transparency and ensuring enterprise-wide regulatory compliance.
Integrity is essential to building a responsible business. Beyond regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations, there is increasing recognition that ethical conduct supports long-term business success. At Infosys, this commitment is reflected in our Code of Conduct and Ethics. Our values guide how we operate every day and form the basis of the Code. They underpin everything we do and are captured in the acronym C-LIFE.
Code of Conduct and Ethics
The Infosys Code of Conduct and Ethics (“Code”) sets out our core values, shared responsibilities, global commitments and promises. It provides guidance about the company's expectations from its employees and exemplifies that we do everything with utmost integrity and transparency. These values, embodied in C-LIFE (Client Value, Leadership by example, Integrity and Transparency, Fairness and Excellence) form the bedrock of our daily lives at the workplace. They are the foundation on which we have built our success over the years and have held us in good stead from our inception.

Infosys Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption PolicyWhistleblower Policy:
To promote the highest ethical standards, Infosys strives to maintain a workplace that facilitates the reporting of potential violations of Company policies and applicable laws. Directors, employees or any other person including vendors, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, trainees, shareholders, former employees, job applicants and any other third parties are enabled to raise concerns regarding such potential violations easily and free of any fear of retaliation, through the whistleblower mechanism. Because there are several means of reporting, a whistleblower need never report to someone they believe may be involved in the suspected violation or from whom they would fear retaliation. The reporting channels, including channels for reaching the Audit Committee, are listed in the Infosys Whistleblower policy and the Infosys Code of Conduct and Ethics.
The Infosys Whistleblower policy is a publicly available document, reviewed periodically by the Board and Audit committee.

In furtherance of the above, the relevant stakeholders are advised of the expected standards of conduct.
Project Eagle: Infosys Regulatory Compliance Program
Infosys compliance program, known as Project Eagle, is intended to track, detect, prevent and remediate any violations of applicable laws and regulations and to encourage a culture of compliance to protect our organization’s value and guides our interactions with governments, regulators, shareholders, employees. Infosys regularly assesses and enhances the compliance mechanisms to meet its evolving compliance needs and obligations, in collaboration with Functional Heads and external consultants. Project Eagle covers the applicable regulations emanating from, for example, Global Immigration, Health, Safety, HR & Employment Law, Tax, Anti Bribery, Export Control, Information Security, Intellectual Property etc.
Project Eagle is supported by the implementation of software tool-based systems (“Compliance Manager Tool”) to effectively track and monitor such applicable compliances under various regulations and enable compliance with the same. We use the Compliance Manager Tool to implement enterprise-wide regulatory compliance management to oversee and track regulatory compliance for applicable regulations globally. We also have a contractual arrangement with external consultant to add more countries in the tool as and when required.
Any changes in applicable regulations are also being updated on the tool on a regular basis, in collaboration with external consultant. An inter-functional team of designated users and checkers oversee implementation and its functioning. Further, respective Functional Heads also supervise and certify continued adherence of applicable regulations as well as any risk of non-compliance with mitigation plan to the Board on a quarterly basis. Our culture of compliance and the compliance tracking tools are reviewed by Audit Committee of the Board and Management at regular intervals. It further undergoes independent assessment internally and with the help of external auditors.
Export Control
We maintain a comprehensive and risk-based framework for compliance around global export controls and sanctions regulations. Our Export Control Compliance Policy establishes governance standards and operational procedures to ensure that the company and its employees identify and adhere to applicable regulatory requirements when developing, dealing, delivering, or transferring technology, software, or services across borders. It likewise serves to protect the company and its employees from breaching applicable laws and regulations, while facilitating business operations and expansion in accordance with such regulations.
We also have a robust third-party screening program to assist in assuring compliance with pertinent sanctions laws. Furthermore, we require training for relevant employees to reinforce their commitment to relevant laws and regulations. In addition, we have implemented a self-assessment and certification program to ensure that compliance with applicable export control and sanctions laws and regulations are assessed periodically, and timely identification, escalation, and remediation to potential violation is an integrated business management process.
