Code of Ethical Practices
Since 1893, the Ohio Chamber of Commerce has been the leading advocate for an environment conducive to the success and growth of Ohio businesses. During this time, our members, directors and staff have taken pride in maintaining a reputation for conducting our business with the highest integrity.
Today, through the actions of a few, the credibility of some of the business community is being called into question. To reassure our members, government leaders and the public, we have chosen to clearly delineate our commitment to the highest ethical practices in terms of our general business conduct, board activity, recruitment and retention of members, and governmental affairs advocacy.
These are the principals that have guided us through our history, but today it is imperative that we clearly state our reaffirmation to these guidelines.
The Ohio Chamber of Commerce Code of Ethical Practices will be actively administered by Chamber management, and it is mandatory that all employees and directors follow the guidelines which are set forth in this document. While regulatory in nature, the Code is woven around aspirations. It captures the spirit of the Chamber and attempts to define and protect its culture.
The Code is subject to review and change. All changes will be made with approval of the Chamber’s Board of Directors to further enhance our credibility and integrity in this complex and challenging world.
