Companies and business partners that receive outsourcing services, including support services, are required to comply with policy principles and other relevant regulations, and relationships with individuals and organizations that do not comply are reviewed.
In the selection phase of outsourcing companies and business partners, senior management takes into account criteria such as experience, financial performance, technical competence, as well as morality and a positive history in this field.

REPRESENTATIVES AND INTERMEDIARIES.
Using Agents and Intermediaries can pose a high risk of corrupt practices. This risk can only occur if an intermediary operates in a high-risk country.

LAST WORD
As Tunaset, in this report, our principles, strategic management approach, relations with our stakeholders and some of our practices within the scope of Sustainability, based on the period of January 1st - December 31st, 2023, are shared with you.
Since Tunaset is not a large-scale production facility and mainly carries out work in an office environment;
-Climate Crisis and Energy Management,
-Waste Management and Circular Economy,
-Water Management,
-Social Benefit
Although long-term Sustainability Goals have not been determined and announced at this stage, our staff is provided with periodic awareness training on relevant issues.
As seen above, our Trucks constitute 79.7% of our Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions, our vehicles and all their equipment are 2021 model years and above, they have Euro 6 engines, they all work in accordance with international transportation legislation, for these reasons, a reduction target in vehicle emissions cannot be determined, Considering that the number of our vehicles will increase in the coming years, it is predicted that there will be an increase.
Since our number of suppliers is very small (usually they are office work and consultancy/audit companies), our Supply Chain Management and Traceability/Assessment issues are carried out in accordance with ISO Standards, and no detailed study is carried out with these companies within the scope of Sustainability.
Participation in Sustainability Initiatives is not foreseen due to the structure of our company, and mandatory or optional Corporate Memberships are not our priority. Since the work of these initiatives is mainly carried out within the scope of gender / women's rights and Tunaset, as stated below, prioritizes only merit due to the possibility of such positive discrimination hurting people, does not consider such memberships necessary.
Considering that the average number of our office personnel is 20 people, a total of 27 man-hours of training were given within the scope of Sustainability in 2023, and 2024 trainings on the relevant subject are also planned. (The Sustainability Training participation rate for office personnel is 100%, and this rate is 55% for all company personnel. 'truck.)
Since our company always prioritizes Talent and Career Management, it does not need to set a target on Gender Equality, Racial Discrimination, Human Rights, Business Ethics and Transparency, considering that 57% of our employees are women.
Since Tunaset always prioritizes Customer Satisfaction and Communication, it continues to improve its work with its experienced staff in the fields of Employee Loyalty and Satisfaction, Environmental and Occupational Health/Safety, Compliance with KVKK Rules, Data Privacy and Cyber Security, Innovation, Anti-Bribery and Corruption and Risk Management.
On behalf of Tunaset Sustainability Working Group (SÇG), we thank you for your interest.
