Managing CR

As an oil and gas exploration and production company that aims to create sustainable value for all its stakeholders, we are committed to improving the lives of the societies in which we operate through the integration of economic prosperity, social development and environmental protection.

In delivering this commitment, Cairn looks to its core values of Respect, Relationships and Responsibility:

• Respect: This means respect for people, communities, the environment, the rule of law and human rights, which are at the core or our policies and Guiding Principles.
• Relationships: At Cairn, we believe that building strong, open and lasting relationships with our stakeholders is not merely a social responsibility, but vital to achieving our business goals.
• Responsibility: We recognise our responsibility to ensure our actions do not harm people, the environment or society and that we respect human rights.

We also set annual business performance objectives and targets, and measure and report our performance against these, as well as the risks associated with the delivery of our business objectives and the efficacy of our internal controls. We seek to continually improve our performance in all areas.
