In order to encourage good faith reports of illegal or unethical behavior (including violations of this Integrity Manual), we do not allow retaliation of any kind by the Company for reports of misconduct by others. It is also our duty to cooperate in internal investigations of alleged misconduct.
We must all work to ensure prompt and consistent action against unethical or illegal behavior. Often times a violation of this Integrity Manual will be easy to recognize and should be promptly reported to a supervisor or, if appropriate, a more senior manager. However, in some situations it is difficult to know right from wrong. Since none of us can anticipate every situation that will arise, it is important that we have a way to approach a new or sensitive question or concern.
