Establishing standards and procedures
Ethics & Compliance Policies
Effective policies help people make better decisions.
Specific ethics and compliance policies turn broad expectations into concrete guidance. Well-designed policies provide clarity in areas where the stakes are high, and the answers are not always obvious.
We help organizations put in place clear and credible ethics and compliance policies, supported by internal controls that work in practice. They translate principles into practical guidance and safeguards on topics such as anti-corruption, human rights, whistleblowing, conflicts of interest, gifts and hospitality, third-party relationships or respectful conduct.
Need policies that people can actually understand and use?
Here’s how we do it
We treat policies and controls as part of the organization’s ethical operating system: connected to values, culture, leadership, risk and everyday behavior.
We help you create policies, procedures and practical safeguards that connect legal requirements, ethical expectations and practical decision-making.
Map the policy and control landscape
We review existing policies, procedures, controls and related materials, and clarify the role each should play in your broader ethics and compliance framework. We identify what employees, managers and relevant functions need to understand and do in practice.
Align with risks and context
We ensure that policies and controls reflect your organization’s real risks, operating environment, stakeholder expectations and Code of Conduct.
Create effective policies, procedures and controls
We translate legal, compliance and ethical expectations into practical language without losing credibility or substance. We create clear policies, procedures and control guidance tailored to your organization’s ethics and compliance context.
We also support you with an efficient localization process to make your policies accessible for international audience. We manage the translation process end‑to‑end, including the creation of all language versions and coordination of the validation process with your internal reviewers.
This service is for you, if…
- your policies are outdated, fragmented, difficult to understand or missing altogether.
- your employees and managers are unsure what the policies mean in practice.
- you are renewing your Code of Conduct and need aligned supporting policies.
- you want policies that support behavior, not only formal compliance.
- you need related internal controls or procedures to make policies work in practice.
