Introduction<br />
Using the <strong>Code</strong><br />
The <strong>Code</strong> provides a framework to help guide<br />
your behavior. It does not address every situation<br />
you may encounter but is meant to supplement<br />
your own good judgment, common sense and<br />
knowledge <strong>of</strong> what’s right. As such, any conduct<br />
that is unethical or illegal could subject you to<br />
appropriate discipline, even if it is not specifically<br />
mentioned in the <strong>Code</strong>.<br />
You should reference the <strong>Code</strong> whenever you have<br />
a question or concern about compliance-related<br />
issues or what constitutes ethical and lawful<br />
conduct. Note that each section <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Code</strong> also<br />
contains references to <strong>Halliburton</strong> policies and<br />
business practices that provide additional detail on<br />
specific topics.<br />
If you ever have any questions about the <strong>Code</strong><br />
or about how to handle a specific situation, you<br />
should speak with your supervisor, contact one<br />
<strong>of</strong> the available Ethics & Compliance resources,<br />
or read the <strong>Halliburton</strong> policy or business practice<br />
that relates to the subject <strong>of</strong> your question. The<br />
Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer (CECO) and<br />
the entire Ethics & Compliance Practice Group in<br />
the Law Department are always available to answer<br />
your questions or discuss any potential <strong>Code</strong><br />
violations that you would like to bring to their<br />
attention. Please do not hesitate to contact them<br />
in person, by phone or through email anytime.<br />
