Business Practices Advocates

Our leading Business Practices Advocates (BPA) program drives responsible business practices at the local level. Our BPAs are advocates and resources for their colleagues, work directly with local leadership to identify opportunities to deepen the culture of compliance, and serve as key liaisons between their local site and the Terex Ethics & Compliance team.

The Helpline

We believe the best way to resolve a concern or ask a question is to raise it. We provide multiple channels for anyone to voice their concerns or ask a question. For nearly two decades, the Terex Helpline has been a vital resource, offering a platform for anyone to ask a question or report a concern confidentially.

Protecting Human Rights in Our Business

 

Consistent with our Terex Way Values, we care about, respect, and support the fundamental human rights and freedoms of all, and we believe that human rights are the basis of an equal, fair, and sustainable society. Protecting human rights is the responsibility of all team members.

 

Our Company has zero tolerance for any form of slavery, servitude, human trafficking, or child or forced labor within our business.
