CODE OF CORPORATE COMPLIANCE
AND ETHICAL CONDUCT
Your global productivity tool!

THINK ABOUT THIS:

Swiss chocolates come from a country that produces no cocoa. It is human attitude that creates success. The company is merely a vehicle. So watch the driver, not just the vehicle!

To succeed in the global economy it is vital to stay current with changes in international law and business practices. Issues that have to be addressed include; Standards of Ethical Business Conduct; Communications and Records; and, Corporate Governance

To succeed your organization must:

1. Prepare a CODE OF CORPORATE COMPLIANCE AND ETHICAL CONDUCT;

2. Implement the Code through a series of tailored Luncheon Talks, Tea Talks and Training Programmes for the Board of Directors, Managers, and Key Personnel; and,

3. Design, implement and maintain a “Corporate Compliance Solution Software”.

The Code should set out all compliance and ethics issues and act as a consolidating document that brings together and reconciles the various organisational documents and handbooks affecting behaviour and conduct such as:
i) Corporate and Business Objectives of the Company;
ii) Contractual obligations under contracts;
iii) Corporate Governance issues;
iv) Employee Handbook;
v) Operations Manuals;
vi) Legal requirements;
vii) ISO Certification;
viii) Safety Policy;

The Code can act as an effective tool to motivate productivity and ensure an organizational behaviour that reflects the corporate culture, business objectives and good corporate governance practices of the company as set out by the Board of Directors and reflected in the company’s annual report.

The above corporate practice reflected in the Annual Report can have a positive impact on share value.
