Your code of conduct lays out the values, principles, and rules that guide employees’ decisions and actions.
And it requires annual, effective code of conduct training to create ethical norms of behavior that everyone follows.

Q
Do you recommend having Board members take this training? If a Board member has a complaint against them by a staff person, does HR handle that like any other complaint against a manager?
Board members should absolutely take this training and if there's a complaint against a Board member, then the organization is best served by hiring an independent, third party investigator who is in a better position to investigate a Board member. The challenge of leaving that project to a member of the HR team is the lack of power of HR vs. the Board member.
Q
Given there's a tangible difference between a conflict of interest, and the appearance of a conflict of interest, shouldn't the question about Susan's relationship with her subordinate (which, according to the module, is kept professional during work) reflect that it is equally concerned about the appearance of a conflict?
Good feedback and yes, the appearance of a conflict is often just as harmful as an actual conflict... so questions about the nature of a superior/subordinate relationship are relevant to the issue of an appearance of a conflict, as well as the question of an actual conflict.
Q
I have reason to believe that 2 of my direct reports are involved in a personal relationship (no direct reporting between them) and they continuously do their work from conference rooms (together) rather than sitting at their desks. Although I have no reason at this time to believe they are violating time keeping policies, they have no common work to do together. I do not feel this is appropriate, however wanted some advice.
Here's a best practice: if you're concerned that two direct reports are involved romantically, you may want to take each one of them aside individually and provide an overview of what's appropriate versus inappropriate workplace conduct and identify workplace behavior stemming from a workplace romance as being inappropriate. If questioned why you're addressing the issue, you can say that workplace romance is always a possible situation so you thought you'd address it proactively in case it ever came up as an issue for that person.
Q
Is it unethical to recommend your significant other for a position in the company if you truly believe they are a fit for the role?
No, it's not unethical -- as long as you're transparent about the personal relationship and explain why the person would be a good fit for the role.
Q
Is it a viola*on of our code of conduct to under report the hours worked systemically across an account ? Even though we do not receive over*me compensa*on, shouldn't we report our hours worked honestly? My thought is that corporate should know the level of effort required to support a client. This is what I read on page 35 in the Code of Conduct. DO NOT • enter informa*on in the Company’s records that hides the true nature of any financial or non-financial transac*on or result; • establish any undisclosed or unrecorded fund, account, asset or liability for any improper purpose; • enter into any transac*on or agreement that could affect the accurate and *mely recording of revenues or expenses. PS - I am afraid to ask this ques*on for fear of retalia*on. That is why I am using this email account. Thank you.
That's why this service is available - to allow employees to feel comfortable asking questions! Great question on under-reporting of hours and whether it's an ethics issue. It only becomes an ethics issue if your employer is getting an financial benefit from the under-reporting. So either the employer is saving money on labor costs or making their financials look better than they are, etc. If the under-reporting is a result of managers cutting time from the bill -- that's a business decision that is typically made to better support that particular client. Hope that provides some context for you. And thanks again for a good question!

Okay, you got this far.
