Appendix 1


 


Summary of IFC Performance Conditions PS 1,
PS 2 and PS 4


 


Performance Standard 1: Assessment and Management
of Environmental and Social Risks and Impacts


 


The objectives of PS 1 are:


 


		(a)	to identify and evaluate environmental and social risks and impacts of the project;



 


		(b)	to adopt a mitigation hierarchy to anticipate and avoid, or where avoidance is not possible, minimize,
and, where residual impacts remain, compensate/offset for risks and impacts to workers, Affected Communities, and the environment;



 


		(c)	to promote improved environmental and social performance of companies through the effective use of management
systems;



 


		(d)	to ensure that grievances from Affected Communities and external communications from other stakeholders
are responded to and managed appropriately; and



 


		(e)	to promote and provide means for adequate engagement with Affected Communities throughout the project
cycle on issues that could potentially affect them and to ensure that relevant environmental and social information is disclosed and disseminated.



 


PS 1 is a process-orientated Standard and applies
to all fund managers and investee companies. It requires identification of environmental and social risks and impacts of a project, which
then determines which of the other PSs apply. This process broadly mirrors Franklin Templeton Investments’ procedures for screening
investments against HSES criteria in order to determine which HSES areas, if any, require further investigation. A PS 1 assessment results
in identifying the Standards that apply during the initial assessment phase. As operational conditions change—expansion, development
of new lines of business—new assessments against other Standards may be required.


 


Environmental and social assessments must address
all stages of the project cycle, identify disadvantaged groups affected by the project and the capacity of relevant third parties to fulfil
their commitments. An Action Plan to mitigate impacts, with a budget and milestones, should be prepared and publicly disclosed.


 


In addition to identifying and assessing the impacts
associated with a specific investment, a potential investee must establish a social and environmental management system appropriate to
the scale of the operations and the severity of the impacts identified, if such a system has not already been established. Not every investee
will require the same kind of system. A mining investment will clearly require more elaboration and detail than a telecoms operation.
But all ESMSs should have support from investee company management, demonstrated through the designation of staff members responsible
for the ESMS, appropriate training for all relevant employees and adequate resources. All ESMSs should contain a grievance mechanism and
procedures for public consultation, disclosure, and progress reporting.


 


Performance Standard 2: Labour and Working
Conditions


 


The objectives of PS 2 are:


 


		(a)	establish, maintain and improve the worker-manager relationship;



 


 



    


    		



    

 





		(b)	promote the fair treatment, non-discrimination and equal opportunity of workers, and compliance with national
labour and employment laws;



 


		(c)	compliance with national employment and labour laws;



 


		(d)	protect the workforce by addressing child labour and forced labour, migrant workers, workers engaged by
third parties and workers in the client’s supply chain; and



 


		(e)	promote safe and healthy working conditions and to protect and promote the health of workers



 


PS 2 establish requirements for labour management
practices and for the health and safety conditions in manufacturing or other businesses. Labour management practices are based on the
International Labour Organization (ILO) core labour principles already included in Franklin Templeton Investments Environmental and Social
Management System. PS 2 also requires investees to inquire into the labour practices of its contractors, especially where the contractors
are direct (not sub-contractors) and where the contractors perform “core” business functions. PS 2 recognizes that the client’s
influence over contractor or supplier labour practices is variable. Investees must inquire about child labour, including within its supply
chain, and take appropriate corrective measures.


 


Specific documentation is required. Every investee
must have an appropriate, written human resources policy which is communicated to employees. All investees must also document the working
terms and conditions of employees and direct contractors and provide these to employees and contractors. A company must develop a retrenchment
plan if it anticipates a significant number of redundancies. Where national law permits workers’ right to form a workers’
union, they should be allowed to do so without interference. In all cases, the investees should provide a grievance mechanism for workers
to raise workplace concerns.


 


With regard to employee health and safety, PS
2 requires clients to provide “a safe and healthy work environment”, taking into account inherent risks in its particular
sector and specific classes of hazards in the client’s work areas, including physical, chemical, biological, and radiological hazards.
This general requirement is supplemented by the revised Environmental, Health and Safety Guidelines.


 


Performance Standard 4: Community Health, Safety
and Security


 


The objectives of PS 4 are:


 


		(a)	to anticipate and avoid adverse impacts on the health and safety of the Affected Community during the
project life from both routine and non-routine circumstances; and



 


		(b)	to ensure that the safeguarding of personnel and property is carried out in accordance with relevant human
rights principles and in a manner that avoids or minimizes risks to the Affected Communities



 


PS 4 recognizes that the effects of an investment
may spill over its boundaries at anytime during the investment cycle. Infrastructure may be constructed to serve the investment. Changes
in land use can impact access to and quality of soil and water. The investment can change a community’s potential exposure to natural
hazards such as landslides and flood. The investment’s operations may affect the potential for outbreaks of communicable disease.
Contractor operations (vehicle traffic, for example) can create risks for Affected Communities. All potential risks to communities must
be identified, assessed, and either avoided or mitigated.


 





PS 4 also recognizes that some clients may use
private or government security forces. If such forces are used, a client must assess the associated risks and conduct appropriate and
documented background investigations. A client should also ensure that security personnel are trained adequately.


 






    


    		



    

 





Appendix 1


 


EBRD Anti-Corruption Guidelines


 


The purpose of these Guidelines
is to clarify the meaning of the terms "Corrupt Practices", "Fraudulent Practices", "Coercive Practices,"
and "Collusive Practices" in the context of the EBRD’s non-sovereign operations in favour of private sector projects.


 


1.           
CORRUPT PRACTICES


 


"Corrupt Practice"
means the offering, giving, receiving or soliciting, directly or indirectly, of anything of value to influence improperly the actions
of another party.  In implementing this definition, the EBRD will be guided by the following principles:


 


(a)         
The conduct in question must involve the use of improper means (such as bribery or kickbacks) by someone to induce another person to act
or to refrain from acting in the exercise of his duties, in order to obtain or retain business, or to obtain an undue advantage. 
Antitrust, securities and other violations of law that are not of this nature fall outside of the definition of Corrupt Practices but
may still be scrutinised under alternative procedures.


 


(b)         
It is acknowledged that foreign investment agreements, concessions and other types of contracts commonly require investors to make contributions
for bona fide social development purposes or to provide funding for infrastructure unrelated to the project. Similarly, investors are
often required or expected to make contributions to bona fide local charities.  These practices are not viewed as Corrupt Practices
for purposes of these definitions, so long as they are permitted under local law and fully disclosed in the payer's books and records.
Similarly, an investor will not be held liable for corrupt or Fraudulent Practices committed by entities that administer bona fide social
development funds or charitable contributions.


 


(c)          
In the context of conduct between private parties, the offering, giving, receiving or soliciting of corporate hospitality and gifts that
are customary by internationally-accepted industry standards shall not constitute Corrupt Practices unless the action violates applicable
law.


 


(d)         
Payment by private sector persons of the reasonable travel and entertainment expenses of public officials that are consistent with existing
practice under relevant law and international conventions will not be viewed as Corrupt Practices.


 


(e)         
The EBRD does not condone facilitation payments whether they are criminalised or not.   Such payments, which are illegal in
most countries, are dealt with in accordance with relevant local laws and international conventions.


 


2.           
FRAUDULENT PRACTICES


 


"Fraudulent Practice"
means any action or omission, including misrepresentation, that knowingly or recklessly misleads, or attempts to mislead, a party to obtain
a financial benefit or to avoid an obligation.  In implementing this definition, the EBRD will be guided by the following principles:


 


(a)         
An action, omission, or misrepresentation will be regarded as made recklessly if it is made with reckless indifference as to whether it
is true or false. Mere inaccuracy in such information, committed through simple negligence, is not enough to constitute a "Fraudulent
Practice".


 


(b)         
Fraudulent Practices are intended to cover actions or omissions that are directed to or against the EBRD.  The expression also covers
Fraudulent Practices directed to or against an EBRD member country in connection with the award or implementation of a government contract
or concession in a project financed by the EBRD.    Frauds on, or other illegal behaviour directed against, other third
parties are not condoned.   Such behaviour may represent an impediment to doing business with EBRD.


 






    


    		



    

 





3.           
COERCIVE PRACTICES


 


"Coercive Practice"
means impairing or harming, or threatening to impair or harm directly or indirectly, any party or the property of the party to influence
improperly the actions of a party.  In implementing this definition, the EBRD will be guided by the following principles:
