We ask that you give as much detail as you have (who, what, when, where, any documents or materials relating to the report). You can trust that we’ll treat your reports seriously, fairly, and promptly, and if something needs to be fixed, we’ll take action based on what we learn.

The team member is also protected if he or she assists in an investigation or proceeding concerning such a complaint, cooperates with law enforcement, or reports a possible violation of the law, this policy, or any other Tyson policy. Retaliation can include any negative job action, such as demotion, discipline, firing, salary reduction, or job or shift reassignment.

A: If the exchange meets either of the criteria below, we expect you to disclose the gift or item of hospitality to protect yourself and the Company.

• When one of the parties involved in the exchange is a government official.
• When the value of the gift or item of hospitality is more than $100 for a non-government party.

A: Complete the electronic Gift & Hospitality Disclosure Form. It will be automatically routed for appropriate approvals based on the party involved in the exchange and the value of the item. We prefer you complete the disclosure form prior to the exchange, but we understand there are circumstances that may prevent a pre-approval. There are strict rules on what we can give to a government official, and a disclosure is still required regardless of value. In addition to completing the disclosure form, you must also identify the names of government officials and amounts of items you provided to a government official on an expense report when requesting reimbursement.
