Is Eni committed to the protection and promotion of human rights in the context of its activities?

The Code of Ethics– and more broadly – Eni's normative system, explicitly declares that the company "is committed to respecting internationally recognised human rights in the context of its activities and to promote respect for the environment in activities contracted to or conducted by partners and stakeholders."
Since 2007 Eni has had a set of guidelines to regulate aspects relating to the protection and promotion of human rights in all of the company's activities.
Following the publication of these Guidelines a Human Rights Compliance Assessment  was launched with the support of the Danish Institute for Human Rights, which resulted at the end of 2010 in the realisation of six assessments (Congo, Angola, Nigeria, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Algeria). Each assessment identified areas requiring greater attention, including human rights and security and human rights in the supply chain, for which specific actions has been introduced at both a global and local level.
Eni is also engaged in the international debate  about human rights and the company's system of due diligence in this area is consistent with the "Protect, Respect and Remedy" framework drawn up and published in 2010 by the UN Special Representative of the Secretary General on Human Rights and Transnational Corporations and Other Business Enterprises, John Ruggie.
Particular attention is given to the respect of the peculiar rights of indigenous peoples, with special reference to their cultures, lifestyles, institutions, links to lands of origin and development models.
In situations where there are indigenous peoples the adoption of specific policies that embrace Eni's commitment to respecting the rights of such people and to take full account of their expectations is deemed necessary in its business decisions. To date an Indigenous Peoples Policy has been adopted for Eni operations in Australia  and Norway
