"But at no time, do we compromise on our values and ethics. I’ve said it many times that everything we do can be at the front of newspapers. We don't hurt, we don't harass, we don't pollute, we don't cheat, ***we don't fix***.
We have and we will stick to the highest standards of values. The best example to illustrate that is our safety performance.
Je le comprends dans le sens de "bricoler"
merci de me donner votre avis

nous ne manigançons pas
"Manigancer" means to scheme, to plot, same as "combiner" ou "faire des combines". I feel it is the same meaning as "fix" here.
One can phrase it differently. It has to be consistent with the other expressions, so I would say either "nous ne manigançons pas" or "pas de manigances" (the sentence would then go like this: "A XXXX, il n'y a pas de peine, pas de harcèlement, pas de pollution, pas de tricherie et pas de manigances").
