CONDUCTING BUSINESS WITH ETHICS AND
INTEGRITY
Our commitment to strict ethical standards contributes
directly to the professional reputation of our Company.
TRC’s approach to ethical business transactions is
guided by our corporate Code of Business Conduct
and Ethics. The Code is principles-based and
assumes the application of professional judgment.
The Board of Directors Audit Committee meets
quarterly to discuss corporate compliance matters.
Employees must periodically acknowledge
compliance with and complete required training on
our Code.
The TRC Ethics Hotline and Ethicspoint reporting
website are resources for all employees. An ethics
officer is in place and is accessible to all employees.
We have a fundamental commitment to treating
our employees with the highest level of dignity and
respect as communicated in our employee handbook.
Discrimination against or harassment of our
employees for any reason will not be tolerated.

RESPECTING HUMAN RIGHTS
We are committed to respecting all human rights,
as articulated in the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights, the International Covenant on Civil
and Political Rights, the International Covenant
on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, and the
International Labor Organization’s (ILO) Declaration
on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.
Our Human Rights Policy applies to all TRC
employees, contractors, subcontractors, vendors,
suppliers, partners and others through whom we
conducts business.
Our Code of Conduct states our commitment to
properly respond to inquiries by government
officials. Employees refer any governmental
inquiries or notices to the Chief Risk Officer
who is responsible for coordinating a full and
timely response, including corrective actions
if warranted. Non-compliance events and near
misses are communicated internally to share
lessons learned in order to avoid recurrence.
