Integrity and ethical behavior
Integrity and ethical behavior are guiding forces behind our personal and professional conduct. As signatories of the UN Global Compact, we strive at all times to uphold its principles in the areas of human rights, labor standards, the environment and anti-corruption, and we cooperate with international and local communities to address them.
We reaffirmed our commitment to ethical practices across the business and recognized those in place in our operating companies by finalizing a renewed code of conduct in 2009: Randstad’s Business Principles. These principles are communicated across the Group via our corporate website and internal communication channels. They are also included in the company introduction package received by every new employee. A program to ensure awareness of and compliance with the principles, and related company policies that specifically address anti-corruption and the reporting of misconduct within Randstad, is underway across the Group.
In order to expedite the reporting of misconduct, including any behavior that constitutes a violation or our Business Principles, we encourage reporting any infringement directly to local management and through established operational channels. Employees are provided with a local dial-in number, information in local languages and access to an independently hosted website where they have the option to report misconduct anonymously.
