In line with the way it values responsibility, SPIE is committed to the highest standards of ethics and integrity. The aim is not only to ensure that our practices comply with the laws and regulations in force, but also to gain and maintain the trust of our stakeholders over time. We have set out our rules of conduct in a code of ethics and in an implementation guide distributed to all employees. Our internal and external stakeholders can also report any behaviour that they consider unethical according to the procedure for collecting and processing reports and alerts.
SPIE adheres to the OECD Guiding Principles and has been a member of the Global Compact since 2003. The organizations operate under the auspices of the United Nations, which promotes the defence of human rights, respect for labour standards, the fight against corruption and awareness of environmental issues.
