Code of Ethics
Text decided by the Board of Directors of Luxottica Group S.p.A. 02.14.2013
All of the Luxottica Group’s activities must be carried out in accordance with the law, within a framework of fair competition, with honesty, integrity, propriety and good faith and in observance of the legitimate interests of its customers, employees, trading and financial partners and the communities in which the Luxottica Group is present with its activities.
All those who work within the Luxottica Group, without distinction or exception, are committed to complying with, and ensuring compliance with, those principles in the context of their functions and responsibilities. Under no circumstances may conviction of acting for the Luxottica Group’s benefit justify the adoption of conduct in conflict with said principles.
Luxottica shall closely monitor compliance with the Code of Ethics by preparing adequate means of information, prevention and control and ensuring that the transactions and conduct engaged in are transparent, intervening, where appropriate, with corrective measures and, in cases of violations, disciplinary sanctions.
In order to ensure the broadest possible dissemination of its contents, this Code of Ethics is also to be published on the company website, www.luxottica.com.
The Code of Ethics also represents the first of the safeguards underlying the Organizational Model adopted by the Company pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001 (the administrative liability of entities for criminal offenses), of which it is an integral part. The violation of the principles and rules set out herein may thus result in serious consequences for the Company, including pursuant to the above Decree.
