6. Political Engagement Policy

APPLICATION

This Policy applies to Aluminij Industries (hereinafter: “Aluminij” or “we”/„us“/„our“) and all employees, officers, contractors, and business partners acting on behalf of Aluminij.
It is aligned with applicable legislation in Bosnia and Herzegovina and international compliance standards relevant to our operations.

ENGAGING IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS

Aluminij has a strict policy in place which prohibits any donations or contributions that would:

• Improperly influence legislation or regulation;
• Promote specific political views or ideologies;
• Fund political parties, individuals, or causes.

Aluminij is a politically neutral organization and does not favour or support any political party, candidate, or political organization.

We do not make political contributions, directly or indirectly, either in cash or in kind.

Aluminij may engage in public policy dialogue and advocacy strictly related to its business operations, regulatory environment, or sustainability goals, particularly where such engagement affects our employees, customers, suppliers, end users, or the communities in which we operate.

While maintaining strict political neutrality, Aluminij recognizes the importance of open and constructive cooperation with governmental institutions and public authorities at all levels. Such collaboration is essential to supporting our strategic goals, including investment, employment, infrastructure development, and regulatory compliance. All interactions with government officials must be conducted transparently, professionally, and in accordance with this Policy and applicable anti-corruption laws.

PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES

Aluminij employees shall not:

• Use or associate their professional role with any political activity or in any manner that could reasonably imply the company’s involvement or endorsement;
• Campaign for or promote any political party or candidate in the workplace;
• Seek to pressure or influence co-workers to vote for or support any political party, ideology, or political figure;
• Use company assets, resources, communication channels, or time for political purposes.

Employees who wish to participate in political activities in their personal capacity must ensure that such involvement is clearly separate from their role at Aluminij.

POLICY BREACHES

This Policy supports our core values and reflects Aluminij’s commitment to lawful and responsible conduct.

Non-compliance with this Policy may result in disciplinary action.
Depending on the severity of the breach, consequences may include a formal warning, suspension, or termination of employment or business relationship.

We encourage all employees and contractors to speak up and report any suspected breach of this Policy, in confidence and without fear of retaliation, through the designated internal reporting channels.

IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING

This Policy is implemented through regular employee training, internal monitoring, and compliance oversight.

Any concerns about political activity or government interaction must be reported promptly through internal reporting mechanisms.

POLICY REVIEW

This Policy shall be reviewed at least once every two years, or more frequently if required due to changes in legislation, international compliance obligations, or company operations.
