Diversity and Inclusion

As a global company, we believe that diversity contributes to the success of our business. We value the unique contributions of individuals with varied backgrounds and experiences, and we believe an inclusive culture allows our employees to contribute their best. We also strive to attract, develop, and retain a workforce that is as diverse as the clients and the markets we serve, and to ensure an inclusive work environment that embraces the strength of our differences. You play an important role in creating a work environment in which employees and business partners feel valued and respected for their contributions. You promote diversity and inclusion when you:

• Respect the diversity of each other’s talents, abilities and experiences.
• Value the input of others.
• Foster an atmosphere of trust, openness, and candor.

We will better understand the needs of our clients and foster innovation if each of us embraces diversity and inclusion in all aspects of our business.

Anti-Discrimination

Each of us should have the opportunity to reach our full potential and contribute to Rimini Street’s success. To accomplish this, you should never discriminate or treat employees or job applicants unfairly in matters that involve recruiting, hiring, training, promoting, compensation, or any other term or condition of employment.

Your employment decisions regarding employees and applicants must always be based on job-related factors, without regard to non-job-related characteristics such as: race, color, ancestry, citizenship, national origin, religion, veteran status, disability, medical condition, genetic characteristic or information, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, sex, creed, marital status, family status, pregnancy, or other legally protected status.

Basing employment decisions on any of these personal characteristics is against our policies and is illegal under the laws of many countries. You must always act fairly and give qualified individuals the chance to develop their abilities and advance within our Company in accordance with their own abilities.

Anti-Harassment

We must also ensure that our workplace is free from all forms of harassment. While the definition of harassment may vary from one country to another, Rimini Street considers harassment to be any unwelcome conduct that has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, offensive, or hostile work environment.

Harassment can take many forms, including:

• Unwelcome conduct — whether verbal, physical, or visual, and whether committed in person or in some other way (for example, via email or social media) — that is based on a person’s protected status.
• Racial slurs, ethnic, religious, age or sex-based insults, comments, stereotypes, or jokes.
• Bullying, abusive conduct or language, physical aggression, threats of violence, intimidating or violent behavior.
• Sexual harassment, such as sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, unwelcome touching, sexually charged or visual communications, or other physical or verbal conduct of a sexual nature.

Regardless of the form it takes, discrimination and harassment negatively affect individual work performance and our workplace as a whole and will not be tolerated. If you experience or become aware of an act of discrimination or harassment, you have a duty to report it.

Health and Safety

We are committed to maintaining the health and safety of our employees, business partners, visitors, contractors, clients, and communities. Our health and safety policies and procedures are designed to help you to work safely.

Acts or threats of violence interfere with our commitment to health and safety and will not be tolerated. Any threatening behavior, even if made in a seemingly joking manner, must be reported immediately.

Drugs and alcohol in the workplace affect everyone’s safety. Being under the influence of either can negatively affect job performance and cause severe safety hazards. We may not possess, distribute, or be under the influence of illicit drugs while on Rimini Street premises or when conducting Company business. In addition, we must always conduct ourselves in accordance with all applicable Rimini Street policies, especially with respect to the possession or use of alcohol, prescription drugs, and other controlled substances.

You should always speak up and raise a concern if you are asked to do a task you consider unsafe or you observe or are made aware of an unsafe condition or a potential danger to yourself or others.

Personal Conduct

Our clients, business associates, stockholders, and the general public take note of how we conduct ourselves in work-related settings, including while on business trips, at business meetings, and at business-related social events. While on the job and while representing Rimini Street, we should conduct ourselves in a responsible, respectful, and honest manner when we interact with others.
