Managing Ethically:
Corporate Compliance Laws

Print this page Email this page
 

Keep your company out of court—and your executives out of jail—with this program. The vast majority of people are ethical. They want to do the right thing and follow the law. They want to work for companies that are ethical, too. In addition to any standards of business conduct that employers may adopt, an array of laws govern every employee's actions. Some of these fall into the area of common sense or ethics, such as non-disclosure of proprietary information. Others may not be quite as intuitive, for example the laws governing insider trading and antitrust. The program gives managers the tools for preventing legal violations.

"This is a great program.  I highly recommend it."
-- Manager, Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation
