Maintaining Proper Data Handling Practices

    Data Management

    Proper data management is essential for compliance and operational efficiency. Employees must handle data with care, ensuring it is accurate, secure, and only accessible to those with the necessary authorization. Managers should ensure that data and information are classified in accordance with Fluor’s data classification policy, with commensurate security controls put in place to protect such data and information from unintended use or unauthorized disclosure.

      Data Privacy

      We are committed to protecting the privacy of personal information/ personal data which is any information that can be used to identify a person, either directly or in combination with other information. Employees must follow all relevant laws and comply with Company policies when collecting, processing, and storing personal data, particularly when administering employee records, benefits, and payroll information. These policies and practices, including Fluor’s data protection “Binding Corporate Rules” (BCRs) applicable to Fluor and its affiliates, describe how personal information/personal data can be collected, stored, disclosed, and/or deleted, and when additional security measures and transparency notices and/or consents may need to be obtained.

      Fluor’s responsibilities for handling personal information/personal data of other third parties, such as business contact information, are governed by our Privacy Policy posted on Fluor.com. 

      Any breach of these data privacy obligations can lead to significant harm to individuals and the Company’s reputation.

        Cyber and Data Security

        Cyber security is a top priority. Employees must adhere to our cyber security policies to protect our systems from cyber threats. This includes using strong passwords, regularly updating software, and being vigilant against phishing and other cyber attacks.

        If you believe that anyone is placing the performance and/or security of any Fluor or third-party information or systems at risk, or that such information or data has been compromised, you should immediately advise your supervisor or your IT manager. Any suspected cyber and data security incidents may be reported through Fluor’s Compliance & Ethics Integrity Portal & Hotline.

        If you wish to add computer software or hardware on Fluor computer equipment or use commercial Cloud services, even services which are “Free”, you must first get approval via the IT Governance process, as they may pose a security risk to the Fluor network. Never add computer software for which there are no software licensing agreements or that are in violation of copyright laws. Before granting any third party access to any Fluor software or systems, you must confirm we have the right to do so, it is appropriate to do so, and that proper documentation is in place. Sharing your password, user ID, or other access credentials with another person may violate our license agreements, may constitute improper disclosure and the improper use of proprietary and confidential information, may put the security of our network at risk, and is a violation of Fluor’s policies.

          No. It is against our Code and company policy to publicly post confidential or proprietary information on social media sites, including message boards or chat rooms. Doing so may subject the individuals involved and our company to reputational damage and civil or criminal fines. Since information about this project is nonpublic, you should not comment on it.

            Document and Record Retention

            We often deal with large quantities of documents and records, both paper and electronic. It is important that you know how long these documents and records should be retained and how Fluor disposes of them. Fluor has detailed retention policies and practices for project and non-project or corporate documents and records, which you should understand and follow. If you are notified that documents in your possession may be relevant to litigation, an investigation, or an audit, you are required to maintain such records and follow the instructions set forth in the notice.

              Investigations and Audits

              We are expected to fully cooperate with any legitimate internal auditors or investigators who request information in connection with an audit of our Company. Always provide accurate and complete information. In addition, never delete or destroy records that are subject to (or are likely to be the subject of) a government or internal investigation, subpoena, or lawsuit.

              Do not attempt to improperly influence any auditor, regulator, or investigator reviewing our Company’s records or encourage anyone else to do so.

              You should notify the Law Department if you are approached by a government investigator or regulator regarding Fluor. You should not provide any Fluor records to outside investigators without prior written approval from Fluor’s Law Department.

              In the event that a government official or authority conducts an audit, seeks information, or arrives unannounced at a Fluor office or project site for an inspection or investigation, immediately inform the Law Department and await further direction to ensure that your and the Company’s rights are protected. Never destroy or alter any documents or information, including electronic files and text messages, in an attempt to hide the information.
