Our purpose is to build trust in society and solve important problems. Our Code of Conduct reflects this purpose through a core set of shared values. It sets out a common framework around how we behave and do the right thing.
The trust that our clients, our communities and our people place in PwC and our high standards of ethical behaviour are fundamental to everything we do. As we go about our work, we must have a frame of reference for the decisions we make every day. Our Code of Conduct guides us no matter where we are or what we do.
Our Code of Conduct reinforces the importance of conducting business within the framework of professional standards, laws and regulations, together with our policies, values and standards. It outlines the values and behaviours that define how we do business. It holds us accountable to be open-minded and responsive and to give our best.
Speak up. Listen up. Follow up. We offer a safe place, free from retaliation, for our people, clients and third parties to report a concern or ask a question.
At PwC, we expect the same level of integrity and business conduct from our third parties and their personnel as we do our own people. These standards are explained in our Third-party Code of Conduct. Knowing, understanding, and behaving according to the Third-party Code is a fundamental requirement to working for or with PwC. PwC expects third parties to be mindful of their ethical responsibilities and to embed the behaviours outlined in Third-party Code into their work for or with PwC.
