Dear Subcontractor,

ADOPTION OF THE DHAKA PRINCIPLES

FOR THE RESPONSIBLE RECRUITMENT AND EMPLOYMENT OF MIGRANT WORKERS

The Dhaka Principles for Migration with Dignity (the “Dhaka Principles”), are a set of
human rights principles to enhance respect for the rights of migrant workers – from
recruitment at their home countries, through to their employment at the overseas
destination, and their eventual safe return at the end of employment.

The Principles, developed by the UK Institute for Human Rights & Business in an
international collaboration effort, were first launched at Dhaka, Bangladesh. For
avoidance of doubt, the Principles are not solely focused on the migrant workforce from
Bangladesh, but are applicable regardless of a worker’s country of origin or employment
destination.

Keppel Offshore & Marine finds the Dhaka Principles to be comprehensive, clear and
readily applicable guidance in our engagement with migrant workers. They provide a
common human rights baseline to be adopted across our various operational locations
globally. The Dhaka principles are also a natural extension of our Core Values and
Supplier Code of Conduct that have already been in place over the past several years.

As our subcontractor, you have been an integral part of our operations, and have stood
alongside us to uphold and enhance our commitment to our Core Values and Supplier
Code of Conduct. We thank you for this, and also look forward to your adoption and full
compliance to the Dhaka Principles with effect from 15th March 2021.

Since awarding of new work as well as the support of manpower quotas will require
adherence to the Dhaka Principles, our representatives will be reaching out to you
shortly for your explicit agreement and alignment on this matter. Any concerns may be
discussed with them so that they may also raise these internally for review.

Yours sincerely,

Jay Singham Nicholas Choo

Director General Manager

Core Principle A
All workers are treated equally and without discrimination
Migrant workers should be treated no less favourably than other workers performing the
same or similar work. Moreover, migrant workers should be protected from any
discrimination that would constitute a violation of human rights.

Core Principle B
All workers enjoy the protection of employment law
Migrant workers should have a legally recognised employment relationship with an
identifiable and legitimate employer in the country where the work is performed.

Principle 1 No fees are charged to migrant workers

The employer should bear the full costs of recruitment and placement. Migrant workers
are not charged any fees for recruitment or placement.

Principle 2 All migrant worker contracts are clear and transparent

Migrant workers should be provided with written contracts in a language each worker
understands, with all terms and conditions explained clearly, and the worker’s assent
obtained without coercion.
Principle 3 Policies and procedures are inclusive
Migrant workers’ rights should be explicitly referred to in employer and migrant recruiter
public human rights policy statements, relevant operational policies and procedures
addressing human rights responsibilities.

Principle 4 No migrant workers’ passports or identity documents are retained

Migrant workers should have free and complete access to their own passport, identity
documents, and residency papers, and enjoy freedom of movement.

Principle 5 Wages are paid regularly, directly and on time

Migrant workers should be paid what they are due on time, regularly and directly.

Principle 6 The right to worker representation is respected

Migrant workers should have the same rights to join and form trade unions and to
bargain collectively as other workers.

Principle 7 Working conditions are safe and decent

Migrant workers should enjoy safe and decent conditions of work, free from harassment,
any form of intimidation or inhuman treatment. They should receive adequate health and
safety provision and training in relevant languages.

Principle 8 Living conditions are safe and decent

Migrant workers should enjoy safe and hygienic living conditions, and safe transport
between the workplace and their accommodation. Migrant workers should not be denied
freedom of movement, or confined to their living quarters (except where
segregation/isolation is required by governmental authorities for health-related matters).

Principle 9 Access to remedy is provided

Migrant workers should have access to judicial remedy and to credible grievance
mechanisms, without fear of recrimination or dismissal.

Principle 10 Freedom to change employment is respected, and safe, timely

return is guaranteed
Migrant workers should be guaranteed provision for return home on contract completion
and in exceptional situations. They should not, however, be prevented from seeking or
changing employment in the host country on completion of first contract or after two
years, whichever is less (subject to prevailing governmental labour regulations).

I hereby declare that I have READ and UNDERSTOOD the Dhaka Principles (2+10) and
the accompanying Covering Letter dated 23rd February 2021, and I AGREE to COMPLY
with all the above.
