We’re proud to support 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 to raise awareness of the importance of individuals and organizations acting ethically. Here are 5 measures you can take to keep procurement ethical: 🌍 A clear ethics policy. 🌍 Rewarding good ethical practice with suppliers through ‘preferred supplier’ status or similar. 🌍 Frequent audits to help deter unethical behavior. 🌍 A zero-tolerance approach to any breaches, taking time to investigate and prevent them from happening again. 🌍 Ethics training for employees so they understand what could interfere in their day-to-day jobs. If you’re interested in finding out how CIPS can help you maintain ethical and sustainable practices, including more information on our Ethical Procurement and Supply eLearning & Test, contact Cheron Lessmeister or visit our website: https://okt.to/BJwrQ7 #GlobalEthicsDay2024
