Our Commitment
to Compliance

At GATX, we go to great lengths to ensure that we adhere to the very highest standards of business and professional conduct. Our worldwide reputation is dependent on our communications and our actions, and it is our responsibility to communicate our expectations to our employees and partners.

Political Contributions

Most countries have laws that govern our contributions to any candidate for public office, political parties, or other political organizations. You’re free to contribute to candidates or otherwise participate in the political process, and we encourage you to do so. You may not, however, receive paid time off for political activity and may not contribute GATX resources, funds or assets to an elected official, political party or candidate for elected public office.

A Question About Political Contributions

Q: I’ve been elected to the town council. Can my administrative assistant prepare my council presentation materials?

A: No. You may not use company resources to support your personal participation in politics.
