Code of Conduct Audits

Code of conduct audits

Codes of Conduct define desired professional conduct according to a company’s mission and values. Bureau Veritas provides dedicated Code of Conduct audits to measure performance and support compliance with these important benchmarks.                                                                                   

Today’s companies are well advised to have a Code of Conduct. It serves as an internal guideline to help employees consider ethical and compliance matters in decision-making. It also offers a public statement of the company’s commitment to high standards, reduces the risk of ethical misconduct and supports compliance with applicable legislation.

Falling within the broader category of social responsibility audits, Bureau Veritas’ Code of Conduct audits verify supplier compliance to company standards. We have audited thousands of suppliers globally on behalf of Fortune 500 companies.
