DuPont Code of Conduct
We do business responsibly. This means we follow DuPont’s core values and comply with laws, regulations, and policies where we work. If any of these standards appear to conflict, consult Legal.
To meet these responsibilities, we must:
Not ask or allow others—such as suppliers, agents, or contractors—to do anything we are not allowed to do ourselves.
Speak up if we have questions or concerns about the company’s practices.
Never hide someone’s failure to comply with a law, a regulation, or a company policy or procedure.
Report suspected violations of the law, Code, or company policies.
Cooperate fully and honestly in any investigation.
Managers play a key role in shaping ethical behavior at DuPont. Those they lead often look to them for guidance on what is right or wrong. Because of this influence, managers must go beyond following the rules themselves—they must actively promote responsible business practices.
To meet these expectations, managers must:
Set an example by showing high standards and following DuPont’s values in all actions.
Talk often about responsible practices and how they reflect DuPont’s values.
Be fair by treating team members consistently and helping them understand that fairness can involve different approaches in different situations.
Actively prevent conflicts of interest among team members.
Listen to concerns and make time to address questions about ethics or compliance.
Encourage reporting by making sure people feel safe to raise issues without fear of retaliation.
Get help when needed by using company resources if a concern is beyond their ability to handle.
Make business decisions that are in the company’s best interest.
By meeting these responsibilities, managers help create a culture of accountability and ethical behavior at DuPont.
