Ethics & Performance

Ethisphere announces Fresnillo plc as one of the world's most ethical companies. Recognition honors companies demonstrating exceptional leadership and a commitment to business integrity through best-in-class practices.

Our Priorities

As a company, we hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards and believe that our actions and behaviour should always reflect our corporate values: Confidence, Responsibility and Respect, Integrity, and Loyalty (CRIL). We expect not only our workforce, but also all related third parties, to consistently embody and adhere to them. To further promote ethical decision-making and align our behaviour with our overall strategy, since 2013 we began a journey to embed ethics into our organisational culture, implementing a framework known as ‘Step-Up’ culture: in the first phase (2013 2016), our objective was the reduction of behavioural risk – the gap between intended, expressed and actual behaviours. The second phase (2016-present) has focused on raising awareness and developing the ethical decision-making competencies of our people.


Our affiliation with the Centre for Leadership Ethics of the University of Arizona enables us to support programmes such as the International Collegiate Ethics Case Competition, which challenges future leaders to consider ethical decision-making. This competition is participated in by universities across the United States, Mexico, Canada and Europe. Additionally, we are also members of the Business Ethics Leadership Alliance (BELA) and were among the founders of its Mexican Chapter.
