Code of Conduct

Tenneco Team:

There is no doubt this is an exciting time for the automotive industry. Not only is change happening at a breathless pace, but the competitive landscape has also dramatically altered the way we do business. At Tenneco, we are breaking away from traditional and predictable ways of thinking in exchange for an unconventional change mindset built on a set of core values as our guide – Radical Candor, Simplify, Organizational Velocity, Tenacious Execution and Win. If we continue to adopt a change mindset and lean into our core values, the path to becoming the world’s most trusted partner and the best manufacturer in the automotive industry will become a reality. We have set a high bar, but I am confident in our collective abilities to accomplish what we set out to do. It’s important for us to remember, however, that how we achieve success matters and it all starts and ends with Integrity – it is the foundation of everything we do. We must always remain committed to doing the right thing the right way and follow all laws, regulations, and policies applicable to our business. You may face a situation where doing the right thing is not obvious, which is why we have a Code of Conduct in place. It guides us with a set of important principles intended to ensure that we operate and behave in a way that will help us earn the trust and confidence of our customers, partners, and each other. It is a tool that empowers you to make sound decisions, even in tough situations, with guidelines and examples on how to speak up with questions or concerns. Success requires a personal commitment from everyone. Please do your part by familiarizing yourself with our Code of Conduct and refer to it often.

Thank you,
Jim Voss
Chief Executive Officer
