Code of Conduct for Employees

So many companies do not execute a code of conduct for their employees, often preferring that employees simply decide for themselves what behavior is right and wrong. As a practice, it is essential that you do place an employee into a code of conduct discussion, so there are no questions or uncertainties about what you as a company believe the values should be. In this practice, learn everything you need to know about establishing an employee code of conduct, and see the example to modify to your version.

Code of Conduct in Your Company

A code of conduct is a statement of beliefs about what a company will not accept from any employee or owner behaviorally. It is a leadership document that sets the tone for not just the culture of a company, but the major pillars for what a company believes is important and communicates to its employee community. It can also be very effective as an expectations setting document for new hires or prospective employees.

Code of Conduct for Employees

A basic code of conduct allows for employees to understand the company values and expected behaviors. Without a code of conduct, employees sometimes don't know what the real rules are inside an organization. As leaders, we need to clarify, and that starts right here.

Example Code of Conduct

Use the example to create your own version and be sure to evaluate your state laws with a local labor attorney -- standards and practices can vary based on local law. It is wise practice to have them review your policy.
