CODE OF ETHICS 2

Code of ethicsThe code of ethics for my company includes the following rules:

  * Employees should let values guide their actions in all cases. 

  *   If something seems wrong, it should be addressed directly. 

  * Policy requires employees to speak up if they are aware of any violations of the code,

even those they have committed themselves.

  *   Market responsibly

  *   Treat people fairly

  * Respect the environment

  *   Keep honest books and records; never trade on inside information; give Kraft Foods

your complete business loyalty.

  * Compliance with laws, rules and regulations

  * Confidentiality

  * Discrimination and harassment 

I believe at my current company that ethics training should start from the beginning. By

offering ethics training to all recruits and new employees not only does it head off

possible ethical issues but it allows the workers and new employees to understand that

our company holds ethical values. By our company, continuing to model ethical values

through all managers and employees it becomes transferrable.  At orientation

employees receive and sign for the code of ethics. With solid ethical guidelines, a

proactive training approach, and a monitoring system, with trustworthy managers to

enforce the rules, our company will continue to set the industry for conducting and

operating an ethical, safe, and healthy working environment.
