Help Maintain Our High Standards
An Ethical Workplace Starts With You
Darton College has a responsibility to conduct business ethically and legally, but we need your help to reach that goal. By "doing what's right" every day, you'll help us build a reputation for excellence and integrity.
Why should I care?
Unethical or illegal activity can have serious consequences for individuals. Colleges may also be financially penalized through lawsuits, claims, fines or restrictions. But most importantly, you should care, because this is your College, and what harms it can harm you personally and professionally.
How can I help maintain High Standards of Business Conduct?
1. Common Examples of Harmful Activity |
2. Think Before You Act |
|---|---|
|
If you are ever tempted to act unethically, ask yourself:
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, the action is wrong. Don't do it. If the answers aren't clear, consult College policy or speak to a supervisor. When you do what's right, you uphold our high standards and set a good example for others. |
The Benefits of an Ethical Workplace
|
If you see or suspect unethical or illegal activity, don't ignore it. Express your concern. You could stop a friend from making a big mistake. If the situation doesn't improve, discuss your concerns with the appropriate supervisor. |
A Confidential Option
If you don't feel comfortable speaking directly to a supervisor or dean, call The Network, an independent company that provides hotline services for organizations worldwide.
