Codes of Ethics and Conduct

A Ethical code It is a document that includes the behaviors and commitments that the organization acquires in relation to its interest groups and its main impacts and relevant risks, helping you define your commitments and behaviors towards your interest groups, improving your brand image.

A Code of Conduct It is a document that includes the behaviors and commitments that the organization expects from the people who work and collaborate with it, in relation to the interest groups and the relevant impacts and risks, reinforcing autonomy.

The difference between a Code of Ethics and a Code of Conduct is that while the first collects the behaviors and commitments of the company, the second collects the behaviors and commitments of the people who work in it.

Did you know...?

In general, codes of ethics and conduct are not mandatory, nor are there legal requirements in this regard. But it is usually very common in relationship with administrations and, above all with big enterprises, that they are asked for evidence of having them.

Example

Company type: A company with established values and principles decides to advance in ethical aspects since the mere definition of the principles is not enough and there is no objective and systematized process for managing events related to ethical aspects.
Action plan: Develop both codes (ethics and conduct) to make the behaviors and commitments explicit and align the organization's people with them.
Development: To comply with the proposed action plan, both the direct team and the workers were involved in defining the values they wanted to share.
What did they get?: Approval by employees of both codes in addition to the creation of an ethical committee in which people from external interest groups participate, and their communication, which resulted in a clear improvement of its image and reputation as a company. engaged
