In Equinor, how we deliver is as important as what we deliver.
As a values-based organization, our code of conduct for open source projects is simply a reflection of our values and how we live up to these as teams as well as individuals.
This set the expectations for how we collaborate in our open source projects, and applies to all community members and participants in any Equinor maintained project.
In addition to any definition or interpretation of the open source code of conduct, the company wide Equinor code of conduct always applies to all employees and hired contractors.
We expect all to have a low threshold for raising issues, or in general discuss how we live up to our values. Equally, we also encourage all community members to appreciate when concerns are raised, and make its best effort in solving them.
As well as responsibility for what is delivered the project maintainers are also responsible creating an environment for proper handling of issues raised within the communities.
For any problem not directly resolvable within the community, we encourage you to call out for assistance. Getting an outsiders perspective on the topic might be just what is needed for you to proceed.
Send an e-mail to opensource@equinor.com and invite for a discussion. The email will be handled by a team within the Equinor organization.
Your request will be kept confidential from the team or community in question, unless you chose to disclose it yourself.
In Equinor, we want you to speak up whenever you see unethical behaviour that conflicts with our values or threatens our reputation.
To underline this, we continuously encourage and remind our employees and any external third parties interacting with us to raise concerns or report any suspected or potential breaches of law or company policies.
For any questions or issues that one suspect falls outside the scope of behaviour regulated, and handled within the open source code of conduct, or you wish to place an anonymous, confidential report we encourage to use the Equinor Ethics helpline.
This helpline is hosted by a third party helpline provider.
