Which is a good practice for implementing a code of conduct?
A . Review the code of conduct of organizations of similar size as a guide for the content of the company’s code of conduct.
B . Treat the code of conduct as a living document, and revise it frequently, as needed.
C . Interact with members of the organization to discuss ethical challenges and compliance requirements.
D . Utilize the organization’s statement of values as the basis for establishing the components of the
code of conduct.

Answer: C

Explanation:

Note that "implementation" is different from "creation". Because a code of conduct must address the risks and compliance requirements specific to an organization, it is good practice to include discussions with a broad representation of the organization’s members before drafting a code. While the organization’s values are considered in drafting the code, they are not the basis of the code. While the code must be reviewed regularly, constantly revising it can lead to employees’ not knowing the ethical mandates.
