It makes good sense to have a tailored code of conduct (or code of ethics) to help ensure compliance in your organisation. We work with you to identify the risks and the topics that need to be covered. We help you compose the code so that it is effective with your audience.

More companies are engaging in CSR reporting or Sustainability reporting and publishing formal reports on their corporate responsibility, CSR activities and sustainability. Many are seeking external verification of these reports.
With the advent of the European Directive on Non-Financial Reporting, larger companies will have to report on environmental matters, social and employee aspects, human rights, anti-corruption and bribery and diversity in the board. Smaller organisations are also finding such reporting to be a useful management and monitoring tool and increasingly their larger customers are demanding it.
Preparing a CSR report or Sustainability report can be a daunting task. How can you report effectively for your organisation? What is important for you to report? How do you determine materiality? Who do you need to communicate with? What is the best way to connect with your audience? What should you measure? Read More
Many companies engage in corporate philanthropy and make charitable donations supporting good causes. Many companies enable volunteering by employees. The smart companies give in a way that also creates benefit for their business. They design employee volunteering programmes that are aligned with their business, using core skills to help charities or enabling employees develop new skills and improve confidence and self-esteem.
Strategic philanthropy is better for your business and for the cause you are supporting. It’s about getting to the root causes of social problems and enabling visionary solutions to make a better society. Read More

Good employers realise that it is better to uncover problems early and fix them before they become a disaster. A 2016 survey found that most employers expressed support of whistle blowers but that most workplaces lacked awareness of the requirements of the Protected Disclosures Act commonly referred to as whistle blower protection. And the recent EU Directive will require companies of more than 50 employees to have policies and processes for the reporting and investigation of concerns and to ensure there is no retaliation towards any worker for raising a concern.
Do you have an fit-for-purpose whistle blowing policy in your organisation? Do your employees know where to go with disclosures? Do they understand their options? Do managers in your organisation know how to act on receipt of reports? Do people in your workplace understand that there must be no retaliation against whistle blowers or anyone connected to them?
We offer both advice & training and can help you introduce whistle blowing policies and processes that are effective and manageable, that fit your company culture and that allow you to deal effectively with potential problems before they become disasters.
