An individual, a political party, or an organization can develop a code of conduct, which is a set of regulations describing the societal norms and rules, as well as the obligations of, or appropriate practices for, the entity. Concepts such as ethics, honor, moral standards, and religious regulations are related to one another.
Fundamentals, principles, standards, or rules of behavior that guide the decisions, practices, and structures of a corporation in a manner that (a) adds value to the welfare of its major stakeholders, and (b) honors the rights of all constituents affected by its operations, was the working definition provided by the Global Federation of Accountants in its 2007 Transnational Good Practice Guidance, “Defining and Developing an Effective Code of Conduct for Organizations.”.
