Message
from the Superintendent Director
This document presents Odebrecht Angolas main results for
2014. This is the third sustainability report published by the Or-
ganization in the country, the first being drawn up after its adher-
ence to the Global Compact, communicated to the United Nations
in January 22, 2014, confirming support to its ten principles relat-
ed to Human Rights, Labour Rights, Environmental protection and
Anti-corruption, position here confirmed.
During 2014, Odebrecht celebrated 30 years of presence in An-
gola. Started this year with the responsibility to complete chal-
lenging steps of important projects for the country development,
among which stand out, by its magnitude, the expansion of the
Cambambes Dam, the construction ofLacas Dam, both for the
Ministry of Energy and Water, and the Lobitos Refinery terracing
works to Sonaref (Sonangol Refinery).
In 2014, Odebrecht Angola also won the contract for electrome-
chanical assembly of the Hydroelectric Plant of Laca and for im-
portant works of urban structuring in Luanda, such as the South-
west Marginal, the Road Axis of Luanda and the BRT (Bus Rapid
Transport), the latter to the Ministry of Construction.
The Kwanza River Diversion Works (part of the project of Lacas
Dam), the Namibe International Airport Welwitchia Mirabillis,
the power transmission line of Biocom, three thousand homes
in Zango and several projects of urban and road excerpts were
delivered.
In the economic plan, the Odebrecht Angola net revenues re-
corded a growth of 22%, comparing to 2013.
Following the principles of sustainability, Odebrecht Angola oper-
ates considering the economic, social and environmental dimen-
sions in an integrated way.
During 2014, the procedures to eliminate risks and work acci-
dents prevention, continued to be followed in all organizations
Operations. In 2015 the Organization will focus in preceding its
continuous search for better results relaying on the constant
dedication of employees and suppliers.
The Odebrecht Angolas investment on employees training in
2014, amounted around 2,1 million USD. On Social programmes,
that aimed to conciliate Client, shareholders and communities
interests, the investment amounted 7,4 million USD. On environ-
mental protection programmes 9,5 million USD were invested.
As for the environment, improvements in the construction work G4-1
sites and supporting areas were promoted, adapting them to
internationally recognized best practices for wastewater treat-
ment and waste appropriate destination. At the same time, it has
been developed work for the future recovery of degraded areas
in larger construction work sites, building ponds and acquiring
from local populations, seedlings of indigenous species, to be
used in this task.
In the area of occupational health, efforts were made for the re-
duction of malaria in the construction sites, contributing to re-
duce the effects of this disease in the country.
Public recognition in the areas of engineering and sustainability,
by obtaining prizes, was for Odebrecht Angola a cause of joy in
2014, as will be seen further in this report.
The 2014 edition of Odebrecht Award for Sustainable Develop-
ment, counted with 40 participants, twice the number of partici-
pants compared to 2013.
We continued following the strategy of expanding the Angolan
participation in our workforce with the reduction of expats and
with training and education programmes for young Angolans who
already make up 100% of the basis of our technical workforce.
This year was published an update of the Organizations Code of
Ethics, which came to be known as Code of Conduct, document
intensely disclosed among the workforce and suppliers, which,
in addition, provides channels of communication for any inter-
ested part.
Odebrecht Angola thanks to all its Clients for their trust, to sup-
pliers and partners, for respecting the assumed commitments, to
the employees for their dedication and to shareholders for ap-
proval and support. We also address a special thanks to the com-
munities in the areas of influence of our works for their hospital-
ity. With pride in the organizations history in these last 30 years
of work in Angola, thanks to all who have contributed to this year
2014 results and, with them, side by side, we celebrate.

Highlights
The year of 2014 was a year of great enthusiasm for Odebrecht
because of the celebration of the 30 years of its presence in An-
gola. This was an achievement in the organizations history, and
demonstrating recognition from its Clients in the country.
During the celebration year, there were moments of particu-
lar importance, among them some stood out due to the repre-
sentativeness of the participants, which are presented here in
chronological order.
April the 15th, the ceremony of the Odebrecht Award for Sustai-
nable Development was held, in which participated important re-
presentatives of the Angolan State and civil society.
Another very significant event in the year was the visit of the Pre-
sident of the Republic of Angola, engineer Jos Eduardo dos San-
tos, to the construction work site of the Laca Dam, on September
the 4th, celebrating the delivery of the Project of the Kwanza River
Diversion a significant step of this project. The Ministers Council
session was also held that day, at the construction work site.
A third important highlight of our agenda was the 30 years of
Odebrecht presence in Angola celebration cerimony, which took
place on September 18th , an event that brought together impor-
tant members of Angolan society and which had the participation
of the Chairman of the Board of the organization and other of its

supply systems and sanitation, roads, power grids and real estate
ventures that have contributed significantly to the countrys de-
velopment, acting always with the objective of maintaining their
workers and communities under the influence of its works safe,
with equal concern on environmental protection.
In addition to the E&C activity, Odebrecht Angola been has deve-
loping social programmes with each project surrounding com-
munities, that stand out in the areas of training, income genera-
tion, community health and education, with literacy campaigns, in
a vast array of other social programmes.

CONTRACT GOVERNANCE MODEL
At Odebrecht Angola, the RFS are divided in six areas of support G4-34
to the SD:
Finance / Information Technology (IT) / Human Resources (HR);
Planning, People and Institutional Relations;
Legal;
Sustainability;
Equipment;
Politics Strategy Counselor
The main function of these areas is to support the SD as well as the
Contract Directors (CD) in the management of their businesses.
In the other hand, each construction project is led by a Contract
Director (CD) that reports directly to the SD. During 2014 the
body of Contract Directors of Odebrecht Angola was composed
by 14 members.
Sustainability affairs coordination is performed by a specific area.
The responsibility of the implementation and operationalization
of the actions defined on the Contracts Sustainability Integrated
Programme (IP - Sustainability) is of each Contracts sustainability

Organizations employees action, acting in accordance to the
guidelines of its Integrated Sustainability Management System.
This management system unfolds in five guidelines: Environ-

These guidelines are detailed in procedures, instructions and
indicators that guide the preparation of the Sustainability Inte-
grated Programme (IP-Sustainability) specific to each business.
The programme is built with the vision of the particularities of
each business, integrating applicable legal requirements, licen-
sing requirements and permits, contractual obligations, agre-
ements and commitments to investors, funders and other
stakeholders, among other aspects.
The guidelines of the Integrated Sustainability Programme pre-

classification of socio-environmental risk potential. This clas-

vity of Odebrecht and provide guidance for the establishment of
G4-SO8 internal and external relations.
Odebrechts Code of Conduct is targeted to the organizations
members addressing the themes of ethics and professional con-
duct when it comes to relations with the other elements involved
in the activity, namely, anti-corruption issues, conduct for decent
employment and non-labour exploitation, legal compliance and
occupational health and safety.
Published in 2014, resulting from the previously existing docu-
ment review, called Code of Ethics, the new Code of Conduct is
available on the website of Odebrecht Group: http://odebrecht.
com/sites/default/files/code_of_condut-english.pdf
The Code of Conduct also provides that all contracts for ini-
tial hiring of suppliers and business partners are submitted to
a due diligence procedure where a careful anti-corruption risk
analysis is performed. The main risks identified in this year, were
politically exposed persons and undue payments, however no
incidents of corruption were recorded at Odebrecht Angola in
2014, as well as no legal proceedings for unfair competition or
monopoly practices.
During 2014, an ongoing lawsuit related to a customs procedure
resulted in the payment of a security deposit in the amount of
USD 230,414.The process is not concluded, still in resolution.
5.4 Commitment
with stakeholders
Odebrecht cultivates a close relationship with its key stakehol-
ders. The proximity to its stakeholders through various mecha-
nisms of communication and interaction is a key element to meet
their expectations, looking for the reconciliation of interests.
The table below summarizes the main mechanisms used by Ode-
brecht Angola to communicate and interact with its stakeholders
on a regular basis, as well as a summary of the main expecta-
tions (concerns, information needs, etc.) expressed by them in
the course of relationships thus established, and the means and
actions that Odebrecht Angola implements and believes respond
partially or fully to those expectations.

In 2014, the Code of Conduct was communicated to 100% of the

professionals in the Management and Senior Staff, and Technical
Staff and Other Workers categories, by means of a compulsory
training action, which totalized 6,116 training hours.

This training was also mandatory for all new employees of the
Organization. In 2015 the Code of Conduct will be delivered to all
employees of the organization.

6,116 training hours about

ethical conduct

This course focuses on the themes of the Human Rights Protec-

tion covered in the Code of Conduct and on the topics related to
the compliance system.

With the new Code of Conduct edition, was also created the
Odebrecht Ethics Line, a communication channel open to everyo-
ne that wishes to communicate any irregularities related to possi-
ble breaches to the Code of Conduct in any of the countries where
Odebrecht has activity, through a phone number for each country
or by e-mail, both disclosed on the website of Odebrecht: http://

G4-27 Some of the actions and mechanisms summarized in the table
above are developed throughout this report.
In order to define the themes to be addressed in this report and seek
to align its content with the expectations of its stakeholders, Ode-
brecht Angola undertook a stakeholders consultation process with
the participation of some entities considered representative for each
stakeholders group (the groups identified in the above table). Al-
though the materiality analysis was the main purpose of this process,
some additional questions were placed to the external stakeholders
to collect their perception about Odebrecht Angola sustainability
performance. In this process, there were also laid open questions in
order for the agents surveyed to provide suggestions, mostly related
to sustainability reporting, but also with respect to sustainability rela-
ted communication and management of the organization.
The collection of this information from our stakeholders, will allow
Odebrecht Angola to create mechanisms to maintain and impro-
ve its relationships and its mechanisms of communication and
management.
The selection of the themes addressed in this report considered the
results of this work (see Chapter 1). Regarding the perception about
sustainability performance of the Organization, the external stakehol-
ders globally qualified Odebrecht Angola with the level Good, on a
qualitative scale of four levels between Weak and Very Good.
ODEBRECHT ANGOLAS STAKEHOLDERS
PERCEPTION ABOUT ITS SUSTAINABILITY
PERFORMANCE
Generally, the obtained results in the different aspects of sustai-
nability measured were classified in the range of Good, with spe-
cial emphasis on the Social - Relationship and Impacts on Com-
munities/Society sustainability performance area.
The integration of social projects in all its contracts is a principle of
Odebrecht Angola, always attempting to create better relations
with surrounding communities and leaving a legacy that will con-
tribute to its development.
Aspects related to ethics, conduct and transparency are tho-
se which show the greatest potential for improvement. To this
respect, it should be noted the review of the Groups Code of
Conduct and the Organizational Climate Study as 2014 relevant
actions. The preparation of this annual report in line with the GRI
sustainability reporting Guidelines is also a contribution to this
end.
5.5 Odebrecht Award for
Sustainable Development
On April 15, 2014, Odebrecht Angola held the 4th edition of Ode-
brecht Award for Sustainable Development, which the objective
is to encourage college students to participate in the search for
technical, responsible and innovative solutions about issues rela-
ted to sustainable development. This contest is housed in a wide-
-ranging Odebrecht Programme for the maintenance of good re-
lations, with angolan universities as well as with professional and
polytechnic institutions.
In its fourth edition in Angola about 120 entries were registered,
granting the participation of 40 competitors from 16 Universities,
of which 11 from Luanda, 1 from Benguela, 1 from Huambo, 1 from
Uge and 2 from Huila. These data demonstrated the increasing
interest for the Odebrecht Award, among the students, tutors
and universities.

to the Environment
In Angola, Odebrecht is considered by its stakeholders
a reference organization at local level, distinguished by
applying environmental best practices and by its work
in environmental protection.

to the Environment
6.1 The bases for
environmental management
The Environment Guideline of the Integrated Sustainability Ma-
nagement System (ISMS) sets the environmental guidelines for
the adoption of practices to identify, assess and minimize nega-
tive environmental impacts that may be caused by the projects
carried out by Odebrecht, leveraging on the other hand the po-
sitive impacts and promote environmental responsibility.
Depending on the social and environmental risk level assigned
to each project, an environmental impact study (EIS) is carried
out being the starting point to carry out the procedures pres-
cribed by the ISMS.

G4-EN22 The water consumption rate, similar to what has been explained
in relation to energy intensity, measures the water consumption
verified in the organization compared to the number of workers
(employees and subcontractors). Therefore, the annual con-
sumption values become slightly more comparable since it con-

in question, although this comparison is relative, due to the rea-
sons explained above.
Unlike the increase in water consumption between 2012 and 2013,
in 2013 to 2014 a decrease was observed due to the larger cons-
truction works being in different stages of development, in which it
was necessary to consume less water than the previous year.

Odebrecht Angola promotion of environmental responsibility
is also present in its activity through environmental awareness
programmes targeting the construction sites surrounding
communities. Those programmes value the care for the envi-
ronment by promoting waste selective collection and public
hygiene awareness-raising activities.
The performance related to Odebrecht Angola environmental
responsibility results from the operational investments and
good practices carried out continuously by the organization in
its worksites. These investments are managed by each con-
tract and is aimed at preventive action, monitoring, control,
correction, mitigation, recovery and environmental education.
In 2014 the total investment in
environmental actions was USD
9,532,498.
Deforestation is an activity inherent to the construction activity. By the
nature of the large works carried out by Odebrecht, the ISMS Environ-
ment guideline requires the definition and implementation of a proce-
dure for the vegetation removal in each contracts IP-Sustainability.
This procedure provides guidance towards deforestation ac-
tions and subsequent recovery actions to be carried out in tho-
se areas that have been damaged by Odebrecht activity.
YEAR DEGRADED RECOVERED
AREA (ha) AREA (ha)
868 565
351 0 of production were created involving the communities in a short
1,063 168
In 2014, the deforested area was about 847 ha and deforestation ac-
tions occurred in the Lacas Dam construction site, Vianas Industrial
Center and in Biocoms transmission power line construction site.
The mitigation actions to face deforestation impacts arent usu-
ally carried out in the same period. The recovery of deforested
areas is inevitably later, and occurs in the final stage of the work.
This explains the recovered land area in 2014 and in previous ye-
ars being lower than the degraded area.
The recovery of degraded areas is carried out by means of refo-
restation. In exceptional cases the treatment of environmental
liabilities is performed. This was the case with Talatona Resi-
dencial works, where the used technique was the bioremedia-
tion of contaminated soils.
In its sustainability integrated vision, Odebrecht has developed
programmes promoting family farming in which environmental
responsibility is promoted through native species trees cultiva-
tion in the projects region by the local population. These pro-
grammes work in one side as income generators, since popu-
lations produce the trees seedlings and then sell them to the
construction plants nurseries, in order to be used for the refo-
restation of degraded areas, and on the other side, they pro-
mote environmental responsibility, restocking and recovering
affected ecosystems closest to the original.
An example of one of these is the programme Kakununuma
Replantar (meaning to replant, in kimbundo and portuguese),
taking place in Lacas Dam.
KAKUNUNUNA - REPLANTAR
PROGRAMME LACA DAM
This programme aims, in one side, to contribute to the income
generation for the communities located in the area of indirect in-
fluence of Lacas Dam contract and, second, to the reforestation
of areas degraded by Odebrecht Angolas activity.
The programme consists, on a first stage, in the communitys
awareness for farming techniques and in the distribution of na-
tive trees seed for its offspring production by the community.
In Angola, to get a large number of local species for replanting in
strategic recovery areas is difficult, since there are no commercial
native trees nurseries in the country. Therefore, alternative forms
period of time as a propagation strategy of species belonging to
the local biome.
It was created in 2012 as a pilot programme, in synergy with a pre-
vious existing project for the communities (Kulonga pala Kukula /
Kukula Ku Moxi), and was extended, in 2013, to the 11 surrounding
communities, totalizing about 510 beneficiaries who did not have
any source of income before its implementation. In 2014 there
were produced around 3,000 seedlings and a set of environmental
awareness activities were carried out.

outside protected areas or in areas with significant impacts to endan-
gered species.
The projects located in areas of higher risk of decreased biodiver-
sity, are always subject to EIS, as described earlier, which define
the mitigation measures to face the impacts on biodiversity, flora
and fauna. The land where Odebrechts worksites are located are
prepared in advance and, for all of them recovery measures for
habitat are foreseen.
6.2.5 Greenhouse Gases
Emissions (GHG)
As a reflection of Odebrechts commitment to mitigate and adapt
to climate change, the organization endorsed the open letter to
Brazil on climate change, ensuring control over greenhouse ga-
ses (GHGs) released by its operations, in all geographies and the
adoption of mitigation measures in relation to this theme.
Thus, Odebrecht has created a global information system for
emissions inventory registration (CERENSA), which follo-
ws the methodology of the Protocol of Greenhouse Gases
(GHG Protocol). This system enables the monitoring of the
organizations activities GHG emissions around the world over
time, fostering transparency and the comparison of data be-
tween the different businesses.
The system registers direct emissions (scope 1, according to the
said Protocol), and the indirect, that includes emissions in the
scope 2 and scope 3. In construction activity, the majority of
GHG emissions, are indirect resulting from raw materials produc-
tion processes (steel and concrete) that require the use of large
amounts of energy.
In Angola, filling the emissions inventory was held for the first
time in 2010.

members whose home countrys labour laws are applicable
abroad, those are also considered by the organization. In those
cases, the applied law is the one that most benefits the worker.
All members are entitled to a life insurance that fully covers the
issues of death and partial or total invalidity.

thcare services, leisure areas, rest areas, recreation areas and in
most of them sports camps. All the construction sites are fitted
with a cafeteria where three meals a day are provided, break-
fast, lunch and dinner to all the team members. Employees are
charged a symbolic value for the total monthly meals of about
USD 4,54. Odebrecht Angolas head office also have a cafeteria
with the same conditions.
Odebrehts Code of Conduct foresees the non-realization of bu-
sinesses that involve the employment of forced labour and/or
child labour, sexual exploitation of children and teenagers as well
as human trafficking, in any process related to the activities of its
companies or in its value chain.
The Suppliers Code of Conduct also includes the issues of child
labour, forced labour, childrens sexual exploitation and human
trafficking. This code must be followed by all suppliers under the
penalty of non-realization of the business and cession of any bu-
siness relation between the supplier and the organization.
The risk of occurrence of child labour, as well as forced or com-
pulsory labour was not identified in Odebrechts Angola opera-
tions or suppliers.However, and despite of not having yet been
deliberated the final sentence, at the closing date of this report,
the Brazilian Ministry of Labour filed an action against the com-
panies of the Odebrecht Group in Brazil, on charges of internatio-
nal workers grooming, for failures in the mobilization of Biocoms
subcontractors employees (organization with the participation
of Odebrecht Angola) and also for poor working conditions. The
process is awaiting for resolution.

Participation data have shown that the amplitude (balanced
participation of head office members and from the majority
of the work sites) and the effective completion rate (89% of
members) not only exceeded expectations, as emphasized the
strategic and emergent nature of this initiative, enhancing the
commitment of the employees with the organization.
Resuming, the results analysis showed a prominent index of
satisfaction among employees when asked about general and
spontaneous perception about working at Odebrecht Angola.
For some Organizations specific functioning aspects (e.g.
satisfaction with medical support provided, with the remuneration
level and with the provided meals quality and variety), the results
of the participants, despite favourable overall, showed more
restrained satisfaction rates.
If, in one hand, the organizational strategy and management
dimension stood out, with a highest satisfaction index, especially
in issues related to social and environmental responsibility, but
also the working environment, the organizations image, and
the autonomy and delegation promoted among employees, on
the other hand, members showed a more restrained level of
satisfaction with some logistical life conditions at work.

Odebrecht Angola offers transport between housing and the
workplace to its members, and when they come from the villa-
ges in the construction sites surroundings, daily transportation
is also provided.
In terms of security, it is distributed for free to all members who
work in the construction site a set of personal protective equi-
pment (PPE) and uniform for mandatory use.
The nature of the E&C activity requires frequent employe-
es demobilization processes. In these cases, the time limit for
workers notice is respected and correspond to the ones laid in
the LGT, which are 60 days for the technical staff, and 30 days
for operating personnel. Demobilization clauses are fixed in col-
lective bargaining agreements.

7.3 Occupational SAFETY MANAGEMENT MODEL

Health and Safety G4-LA5

As E&C is one of the economic activities with higher risks, the

issues of occupational safety and occupational health are funda-
mental in business management.
Odebrecht operates under guidelines of Occupational Health and
Safety, in line with its Sustainability Policy. These set out the risk
prevention and control practices and procedures applicable to the
contracts since the moment of previous study and planning, un-
til the final phase of demobilization, for the protection of people,
surroundings and assets. These guidelines of Occupational Heal-
th and Safety constitute the guidelines for the good practices and
procedures implementation in each contract Occupational Health
and Safety Programme.
OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY
& SECURITY PRINCIPLES
Ensure that the Occupational & Safety and Security
theme is a differentiating element of the processes,
activities and brand quality, in the projects. The res-
ponsibility of protecting people and applying the

Occupational Safety in each project;
Ensure that the Occupational Safety & Security
Programmes are based on the sequence of plan-
ning with focus on prevention;
For a better management of this issue, Odebrecht created an occu-
pational safety indicators control and monitoring tool. It consists on
an information system that allows each work site occupational safe-
ty team to register monthly the occupational accidents related data,
with the following objectives:

2014 five accidents that resulted in the death of six people occur-

thorough investigation on the complex factors that led to the fatal
episodes. Action plans have been defined which recommenda-
tions were far-reaching and resulted in major changes in the pro-
cedures adopted in all worksites. In 2015, it will be implemented
and disseminated in all the contracts an action plan defining a set

Despite the gravity of some of the occurrences, in 2014 emerged
the overall reduction in the total frequency rate, and in the occu-
pational diseases rate. The absenteeism rate related to occupa-
tional diseases is only presented to Odebrecht employees, since
the responsibility of this data for the subcontractors is from their
employer.
Still under the topic of safety at work, it was active in 2014, the
corporate programme PRVER (Programme for the Prevention
of Serious Events), which consisted in the realization of a set of
some inspections named Qualimetrias (safety quality checks).
These obey to a check list of safety matters, and aim the detec-
tion of failures and potential accidents, as a trigger for the subse-

In 2014, the occupational health and safety management sys-
tems of Cambambes Dam, Talatona Residencial and Belas Bu-
siness Park contracts have been certified by the international
standard OHSAS 18001. This means that approximately 30% of
Odebrecht Angolas workers (employees and subcontractors),
worked in 2014 in a certified environment. However, in spite of the
remaining work sites not being certified by an international stan-
dard, all the work sites have implemented an occupational health
and safety system aligned with Odebrechts guidelines, which
means that 100% of Odebrecht Angola workers, develop their Medical procedure for Work in Confined Environment

7.4 Education and training
G4-LA10 Odebrecht Angola makes available to its employees in all pro-
fessional categories several training courses that allow them to
build their career and improve their professional performance
daily. This is a way to transfer knowledge to its members and
also for the market, since the members make part of the com-
munity that benefits from this acquisition of knowledge.
On the other hand, in order to bring the academic universe and the
E&C business universe together, Odebrecht Angola has developed
a set of partnerships with national universities. These partnerships
have as main purpose to share knowledge between universities
and the organization as well as the approach of University stu-
dents to the labour market, opening them the opportunity to make
a career within the organization. This is also a strategic position in
the sense of training Angolans for future integration into the Or-
ganization, ensuring the succession of generations on the path to
Survival, Growth and Perpetuity of the organization according to
the Odebrecht culture. In 2014, at Odebrecht Angola the following
programmes were available:
1. Alternate Internship Programme destined to the the 4th
year Civil Engineering students who intend to make a career at
Odebrecht. The programme allows the student internship in the
organization, being present or not on the work site, through an
online training platform and the knowledge and ideas sharing
between professionals and trainees.
After the programme conclusion, participants begin the Young
Partners Programme.
2. Young Partner - involves a process of identification, selec-
tion and monitoring of young people within the organization,
providing them with functions with some responsibility, gi-
ving them some autonomy and mobility. In the year of 2014,
100% of the participants in this programme were Angolans.
3. Scholarship UNILINS In partnership with the UNILINS - Lins
University Centre, Sao Paulo, Brazil, Odebrecht Angola granted
scholarships to 20 Angolan students from several secondary
education institutions in Brazil, with the cost fully taken by the
organization. The grants provide graduate courses in Civil Engi-
neering, Electrical Engineering, Computing Engineering, Environ-
mental Engineering and Business Administration, within 5 years.
Odebrecht Angola also offers other training programmes targe-
ted to the employees, which allow the expansion of their qua-
lification by means of vocational training courses, promoting
productivity and the prospects of their life quality.
There is also a set of training courses for employees, which take
part in the evolution of their career at the organization.
1. Introduction to the culture training course, lectured to all the
new members in the Organization and addressing the theme of
the organizations history and culture, introducing the philoso-
phy of TEO;
2. Young Builder Programme targeted to the members that
have attended the Young Partner programme and also the In-
troduction to the culture programme, offering them an inte-
grated vision into Odebrecht business;
3. Business Leaders Development Programme (PDE) intended
to the members who will take high leadership positions in the
future;
4. Excellence seeking strategic programme designed by Ode-
brecht Angola, to all the organizations members, by addressing
the themes of competences development, aggregating some
topics such as leadership, self-esteem, communication and
motivation;
5. Productive Teams - awareness course for Odebrecht mem-
bers, aiming the improvement of labour productivity as a team.
There is also another type, daily training that corresponds to the
philosophy of education by presence. This is the Daily Technical
Training, which consists of a 5-minute conversation between
team members to address health and safety issues that are
most important to the tasks to be performed that day.
It also offers a set of technical courses which aim to develop
specific skills. Many of these courses are taught in training cen-
ters where there are simulators of situations with high potential
of accident, where the trainees have the opportunity to expe-
rience in practice certain procedures:
1. Equipment Technician Course learning the machines for
construction handling and performance;
2. Training courses on Occupational Safety relating to occupa-
tional safety, addressing topics such as work at heights, safety
risks, permission to work, work with electricity, use of PPEs
among others;
3. Training courses in Occupational Health with the integra-
tion of doctors in occupational health, ergonomics, educators
for HIV and malaria prevention awareness training and labora-
tory technicians training for malaria diagnosis;
4. Training courses on Environment where environmental
practices are discussed, such as waste management (routing
72
and separation), environmental management, environmental G4-LA9
risks, promoting environmental best practices and the reduc-
G4-LA11
tion of energy and fuel consumption.
There are still two more types of training: languages and trai-
ning on ethics and anti-corruption conduct, which includes the
Code of Conduct dissemination course and the Introduction to
the culture course.

Odebrecht Angola training plan does not include any specific ac-
tion for the security personnel (activity carried out by specialized
third parties) which takes into account the Organizations policies
or procedures relating to Human Rights and that are meaningful for
the operation. However, during 2015, a training action about this
issue, directed to security personnel, will be planned and structured
which will aim to prevent possible abuses of small power.
The performance evaluation at Odebrecht is a key point for the ca-
reer development of its employees. According to the principles of
TEO, all members take an annual commitment to its direct leader
called the Action Programme, in which personal objectives and go-
als are defined. All members are subject to annual evaluation in two
moments, not existing in this process differentiation by gender. In
2014, all 964 female members and 11,399 male members received
feedback. Odebrechts evaluation act is a shared task between the
member and his/her leader, where there is a specific dialog be-
tween both, facing the actual results with the expected results by
the leader.
The evaluation measures simultaneously the team member per-
formance in executing what was planned and the leader perfor-
mance in monitoring the implementation.

to Community
Odebrecht believes that business growth
is only possible if there is a joint development

surrounding communities.
8. Commitment
to Community
The theme of local communities has great importance to our
Organization, since Odebrecht believes that business growth is
only possible if there is a joint development with the surrounding
communities to the places where the projects are located.
Therefore, developing Social Programmes that aim to improve

The construction and implementation of a programme of this

i. Knowledge of the Region - implies the implementation of a
study to obtain knowledge about the regions reality with the
identification of stakeholder expectations and regional charac-

opportunities. The region knowledge considers the realization
of public consultations.

Programmes
Because of the E&C business nature, the community well-being
is directly related to keeping people that work and live around
Odebrechts projects, safe and with a good life quality level. It is
also related to the employees welfare, since a large part of them
is part of the local community. On the other hand, the E&C busi-
ness has great focus on building infrastructures, which are gene-
rally large projects which typically generate large impacts, positive
and negative, in the social environment, both during construction
and after the work delivery.
It is in Odebrechts essence the concern about the social impact
that their activities cause in the community, and its Sustainability
Policy predicts that all new projects must have a socio-econo-
mic impact study, associated to the environmental impact study,
which includes the diagnosis of the expectations and needs of
the community, and the assessment of possible impacts gene-
rated by the project. This diagnosis should characterize existing
communities in the projects area of influence in the fields of
health, socio-economic conditions, quality of life, housing condi-
tions, cultural issues, identification and characterization of tradi-
tional and ethnic groups, being always carried out, even in cases
where the assessment of environmental impacts is not legally
required, although its level of depth is adapted according to the
projects risk level.
Subsequently a Social Action Plan is designed, which the exten-
sion depends on the dimension, and on the impacts of the cons-
truction works.
Social initiatives developed in each of Odebrechts project are
held focusing on surrounding people, communities and organiza-
tions of the construction works locations, that after having their
actions, and sponsorships.
The construction of the Social Programmes for community de-
velopment is made on the basis of the Guideline about social pro-
grammes, inserted into Odebrecht sustainability policy. This guide-
line provides guidance on the construction and implementation of
the Social Project. Social Projects design is based on the following,

 Subsequently some of these programmes are detailed.
8.2.1 Kukula Ku Moxi - SODEPAC
G4-SO1 The first social development programme carried out in Angola by
Odebrecht, began in 2009 in the province of Malanje and evol-
ved in the current programme KUKULA KU MOXI (meaning Grow
Together in Kimbundu, one of the countrys national languages).
This project was created by Odebrecht Angola under a contract
with the Society for the Development of the Capanda Agro-
-industrial Pole (SODEPAC), with the aim of contributing to the
sustainable development of communities in the area of influence
of that entity. These communities showed a sharp fragile social
situation in 2009.
The programme was structured to enhance income generation
for farmers in the region. Evolved into an integrated action for the
community sustainable development with the definition of spe-
cific projects in the following areas:
Family farms: project to encourage small farmers to agricul-
tural production, with new species insertion, support to the ve-
getables marketing and training producers to make them able to
carry out the business autonomously.
Health: Extension of Safe Birth Programme working with the
regions traditional midwives, training them to the adoption of sa-
fer practices in procedures of childbirth, thus contributing to the
decrease of infant mortality rate in the families served, as well as
the decrease of maternal mortality rate from 45 per 100,000, to 0
per 100,000 child births.
Initiative and citizenship: an integrated vision of the various
actions in the community together with the organization of a go-
vernance system, which includes the incentive to peoples asso-
ciation and intercommunity cooperation progressed to involve pri-
vate partners and articulation with public national and international
policies, led to the creation of new cooperatives and associations.
Today there are 29 agricultural leaders which, along with young
graduates in the programme, are recovering 29 associations,
of which 9 are already structuring as agricultural cooperatives.
Beyond the effect on increasing income, better conditions and
quality of life was also made possible by the significant impro-
vements in the diet, with the introduction of new vegetables in
the food basket and improved access to water, which went from
28% to 95% communities with access to quality water. Farmers
are being prepared for the future through the adult literacy cam-
paigns, which resulted in a sharp increase in the literacy rate.
Today the programme counts with the partnership of Maersk Oil,
Sonangol, Conoco Philips, Biocom and ESSO.

8.2.3 Handmade Soap Factory
and other initiatives - Zango
Within the framework of the Economic Houses of Zangos pro-
ject, consisting in the construction of a residential district in the
area of expansion in Luanda to rehouse people from precarious
neighborhoods or in risk situation, as well as from areas required
for the urban redevelopment of the capital, many families have
seen great improvements in their quality of life, having now ac-
cess to houses with running water, electricity and paved roads,
in addition to access to transport and other services. In this envi-
ronment, Odebrecht Angola created a development programme
for the new community of Zango, aiming to promote initiatives in
the area of education, training and income generation.
It has been created the Socio-vocational Aid Training center of
Zango (CESA Centro de Formao Socio-Profissional Auxilia-
dora in portuguese) in partnership with Kambas do Bem (wives
of Odebrecht Angola employees associated for voluntary work)
and the Angolan Salesian Sisters Congregation, responsible for
the Centre management. In CESA there are literacy, cookery, pas-
try, baking, accounting, secretarial services, decoration courses,
amoung others.

ZANGOS HANDMADE SOAP
FACTORY COOPERATIVE
In order to support sustainable initiatives that promote income ge-
neration, citizenship and quality of life improvement, in 2011 Odebre-
cht Angola held a series of training in entrepreneurship among the
formal and informal leaders of Zango. In one of these training ses-
sions, a group was motivated for the production of handmade soap
through recycling used cooking oil - this oil used to be dispersed in
nature generating considerable environmental impacts, such as soil
waterproofing and and damaging sanitation facilities.
The pilot project began in June 2012, in the backyard of one of the
community members, and since then the production has grown
every month, with great commercial acceptance.Thus, in order to
adapt the production to the demand and prepare the group to launch
into the formal market, while better working conditions and health
were promoted, it became essential to transfer the craft factory for
a proper and prepared place for future expansions.
In 2014, Odebrecht Angola built the head office of the Cooperative,
with support from the Provincial Government of Luanda, which of
this, has designated an area in Zango IV. The group of 21 cooperative
members also had the support of Odebrecht Angola for training in
management and for the business plan definition, especially to reach
more raw material suppliers. Currently, the oil used comes not only
from Odebrecht projects in Luanda, but also hotels, restaurants and
condominiums in the city.

on the social economic survey to the surrounding communities,
specially to the ones that are inserted in areas directly affected by
the dam that will have to be resettled. After the survey, the social
programme was designed with focus on the reduction of the ma-
jor shortcomings of these communities. The actions integrating

ning of new professionals, and since 2012 the number of contrac-
ted by Odebrecht Angola has been increasing from year to year. Since 2005 Odebrecht Angola is a permanent member of the Fo-
rum of Partners against Malaria. The role of this Forum is to sup-
port the Governments actions aimed at preventing and comba-
ting the disease, by creating synergies between the 3 sectors of
society, in line with the guidelines of the national programme. The
Forum is constituted by representatives from the Angolan Minis-
try of Health, National Programme Against Malaria, the Ministry
of the Interior, Unicef, USAID, the Global Fund, Companies with
important activities in the country and several NGOs.
The programme to combat Malaria is part of each contracts
IP-Sustainability with guidelines and procedures to be adopted
by the projects on the reduction of the disease cases.
Odebrecht Angola performs, among its workers population,
periodic tracking tests that allows early diagnosis of the disea-
se which is fundamental for the disease combat. Also provides
appropriated treatment and medical follow-up to its members
in case of a positive diagnosis. In these cases is also held a dai-
ly monitoring of the patient, towards a better characterization of
the disease incidence in Odebrecht Angola population.
In 2014, 23,289 thick blood tests were carried out and 1,182
malaria cases were identified in Odebrecht Angolas workforce
population.
86
4.6
The disease monitoring is made by Odebrecht Angola in the uni-
verse of all its workers through the Annual Parasitic Index (API).
This index is indicated by WHO, and in Odebrecht Angola API is
obtained from the number of positive cases in the organization in
relation to its actual population. In 2014 there has been a signifi-
cant reduction in the number of positive malaria cases in Odebre-
cht Angolas population comparing to the previous year. This fact
is due to the strengthening of the distribution of mosquito nets,
insect repellent and awareness-raising activities.
Additionally, Odebrecht has the Active Search programme which
aims at monitoring and alert for symptoms among the organiza-
tion migrant population which has been exposed to conditions
favorable for the disease contraction. There is a procedure defi-
ned for all organizations employees, which predates his travels
out of the country. The procedure consists in the realization of
the test outside the country and in the distribution of the Ma-
laria KIT containing a quick test and appropriate medication, for
administration in case of positive symptoms outside Angola.
8.3.2 Programme to Combat
HIV/AIDS
The incidence of HIV/AIDS in the worlds population justifies the
concern of Angolan health authorities about this issue. Odebre-
cht Angola shares this concern and has been promoting edu-
cation and awareness among its employees and in worksites
surrounding communities about the virus and the way it sprea-
ds. There are also free tests to HIV/AIDS, targeted to Odebrecht
Angola workers, donated by the National Institute Against AIDS,
87

with consideration for the results to be forwarded for inclusion
in the government databases. Odebrecht Angola also provides
support, referral and appropriate treatment in case of positive
cases detection. In 2014 2,880 tests of HIV/AIDS were carried
out on workers, families and members of the organizations
worksites surrounding communities.
It has also been developed a training course for counselors
about the issues of HIV/AIDS, in partnership with the Angolan
Ministry of Health, through which, in 2014, were formed 250
educators. Counselors function is to give lectures to Odebrecht
Angola workers and to the communities, talking about HIV/
AIDS, malaria, sexually transmitted diseases, tuberculosis and
other health issues, as well as condoms distribution.

Odebrecht Angola is also a founding and permanent member

counts with the participation of various public and private enti-
ties, sharing a collective effort of understanding for the develo-
pment of strategies in the fight against HIV/AIDS in the country.
Since its beginning in 2002, it is
estimated that the programme
has already reached about
450,000 Angolans.
8.3.3 Safe Blood Programme
Odebrecht Angola participates since 2007 in the Safe Blood
Campaign developed in partnership with the National Institute
of Blood, with the aim of encouraging voluntary blood dona-
tion. This action is intended to Odebrecht Angola workers and
its main objective is to make safe blood collections. Odebrecht
Angola promoted 4 campaigns during 2014, in Luanda Expres-
sways project, in Luanda Roads project and two in Lacas Dam
project, registering a total of 286 donations.
8.3.4 Safe Birth Programme
In collaboration with the Government of Angola in the fight
against maternal mortality, Odebrecht Angola adopted in 2006
the Safe Birth Programme. The traditional midwife figure assu-
mes a very important role in childbirth in Angola, to the extent
that around 50% of births happen outside formal structures of
Government health care. Odebrecht Angola promotes training
actions for traditional midwives groups for the adoption of safer
practices in childbirth procedures, and also for preventing vertical
transmission of diseases from mother to child. In 2014, about 250
traditional midwives participated in the project.
88
8.4 A New Life
Due to the nature of Odebrecht Angolas activity and projects,
there is often the need to carry out processes of populations re-
location.
Although these processes are the contractors full responsibi-
lity, Odebrecht Angola sometimes assumes an important role
supporting its Clients. To this end, Odebrecht defined specific
guidelines on involuntary people resettlement, which is included
in the Social Programmes in the Surrounding Areas guideline, in
order to direct the type of action to perform in these situations.
These guidelines are still complemented with specific guidelines
for situations in which the population to resettle is identified as
indigenous population.
In 2014, Odebrecht Angola supported one of its Clients in a reset-
tlement process, which consisted in the relocation of 280 families
who lived in vulnerable conditions in the area where is being im-
plemented the Luanda Roads project, since the road layout im-
plied the need to use the land where the houses of those families
were placed.
The families were relocated to new houses in the Zango commu-
nity, having substantially improved their living conditions.

The Human Rights protection is an intrinsic theme for Odebrecht
principles and values. These are consolidated in TEO which is
the cultural and ethical reference common to all its members.
The Organizations Code of Conduct establishes and reinforces
principles of non-discrimination, non-use of forced labour, of
non-tolerance to sexual exploitation or child labour and people
trafficking. Also explains that all the members conduct must be
accomplished with social responsibility, avoiding waste, respec-
ting the environment and cultural values, human rights and so-
cial organization in the communities.
On the other hand, while there is no set of specific clauses, all
Odebrecht Angola contracts refer to the strict adherence to the
principles prescribed by law, as well as the protection of Human
Rights, guaranteed by Title II of the Angolan Republic Constitution
and appeal to the Code of Conduct for Suppliers respect.
During the year of 2014 no cases related to situations of violation
of indigenous or traditional people rights or, complaints related to
human rights violations or cases of discrimination were registe-
