5. Ethics and Transparency
Ryanair’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Ryanair is committed to conducting business in an ethical fashion that complies with all laws and regulations in all
of the countries in which Ryanair operates. Employees and representatives of Ryanair must consider how their actions
affect the integrity and credibility of the Company as a whole. Ryanair’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code”)
sets out the principles that constitute Ryanair’s way of doing business. The Code is reviewed and approved by the Audit
Committee of the Board at least annually.
The Chief Executive (“CEO”) and management at all levels of Ryanair are responsible for ensuring adherence to this
Code. They are expected to promote an “open door” policy so that they are available to anyone with ethical concerns,
questions or complaints. All concerns, questions, and complaints are taken seriously and handled promptly, confidentially
and professionally.
Modern Slavery Act 2015
Ryanair does not tolerate any infringement of human rights, including the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked
labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude (whether adults or children) in any part of our business or supply chain. We
endeavour to only use suppliers that adhere to these principles and provide a safe and healthy working environment for
their employees.
Customer Charter, “Always Getting Better” (“AGB”)
