Governance

JWM, a family-owned company with a solid track record

JWM, a family-owned company with a solid track record, has continually improved its processes and best practices in corporate governance. We believe that this initiative is a crucial step in consolidating our role in the sector and ensuring a promising future.

Over the years, JWM has stood out for the quality of its services and its commitment to exceeding customer expectations. Now, we are raising our standards even higher, recognizing that enhancing our corporate governance is a strategic differentiator.

We understand that strong corporate governance is essential to ensure transparency in our actions, strengthen relationships with our employees, customers, suppliers, and partners, and enhance efficiency in our internal processes.

Corporate Governance Policy 

JWM has a Corporate Governance Policy that defines the company’s internal processes, bodies, and structures. Through this policy, we ensure transparency, accountability, fairness, and sustainability in all our corporate decisions.

Advisory Board of Directors 

Still a privately held company, JWM is committed to continuously strengthening its corporate governance structure. To strategically mature this structure, the company has established an Advisory Board of Directors.

This Board is composed of independent members selected for their expertise in key areas such as finance, compliance, tax, and business. Its main role is to support the Executive Board in decision-making and in defining strategies that promote sustainable growth and operational efficiency.

This initiative reflects JWM’s commitment to management excellence and positions the company to meet the highest standards of corporate governance in the future.

Corporate Governance Committees

The committees are groups formed by members of the Board of Directors and, in some cases, by company employees and external specialists.

Each committee is responsible for evaluating and monitoring company practices and policies, ensuring that JWM operates ethically, transparently, and in alignment with strategic goals. They play a key role in decision-making, strengthening governance, and protecting the interests of shareholders and stakeholders.

Mapping Process

Aligned with our mission and commitment to excellence, all of JWM’s processes are mapped and documented.

The process mapping matrix was created in 2018 and has been continuously updated ever since.

Strategic Planning and Emergency Management

JWM has an annual Strategic Plan, reviewed every six months, which guides the actions of each department.

Beyond strategic planning, the company also has emergency plans in place to respond to incidents and minimize operational impacts.

Code of Ethics and Conduct &  Whistleblowing Channel

Complementing the Corporate Governance Policy, JWM also has a Code of Ethics and Conduct, which sets behavioral and responsibility guidelines to ensure fair and dignified treatment without discrimination.

JWM offers a Whistleblowing Channel for both internal and external audiences. It allows for the reporting of any violations or suspected breaches of the Code of Ethics and Conduct, applicable laws, or internal policies.

Compliance Support Specialists and Tools

We have specialists and tools that ensure full compliance with laws and regulations. We also maintain a service agreement with Amblegis, a leading provider of legislative mapping and comprehensive compliance solutions.

International Standards and Independent Audits

We adopt international compliance and management standards to apply globally recognized best practices.

In addition, our processes are periodically subjected to independent audits to identify any discrepancies and ensure ongoing compliance.

Established Process for Detecting and Correcting Non-Conformities

JWM has a robust process in place to identify and address non-conformities.

Information Security Policy

To prevent misuse, loss, or leakage of information, JWM has implemented an Information Security Policy that must be followed by all users of IT resources.

This policy complies with internal corporate policies, the General Information Security Plan, Brazil’s General Data Protection Law (LGPD), the Anti-Corruption Law, and labor legislation.

Supply Chain Security

At JWM, we carefully evaluate all suppliers to ensure they meet the company’s requirements.

We use an internal procedure called “Control of Externally Provided Products and Services,” in which each supplier must complete a specific questionnaire related to their service type. The goal is to select and contract suppliers that meet JWM’s quality and safety standards.

Risk Management

Risk identification and assessment include financial, operational, legal, reputational, and sustainability-related risks.

The governance body works to anticipate and mitigate threats before they materialize, protecting the company’s and stakeholders’ interests.

Contingency plans are in place to respond transparently and effectively to crises or unforeseen events. These plans are reviewed and tested regularly to ensure maximum effectiveness.
