The Code of Conduct applies to every employee within the Maxstaff.co Group. Violations of the Code of Conduct are not tolerated and may be subject to disciplinary action. The version of the Code of Conduct currently applicable within the Group dates from 20204. It is the result of an update that takes into account the outcome of the latest risk mapping. It provides formal and binding guidance on the key principles and commitments that must be respected by managers, employees and the Group as a whole on a daily basis. Every employee of the Group is expected to comply with the principles and rules of the Code of Conduct and is responsible for his or her actions.

The Code of Conduct also prescribes the essential rules of conduct with regard to the Group’s relations with its business partners; its commitments as a socially responsible company; human resources policies, and commitment to the protection of the Group’s assets. It provides guidance to employees and managers on their role and responsibilities, how to take ethics into account in decision-making, how to obtain information and answers to questions, and how to report a concern, in particular through the whistleblowing system. In terms of communication, the Code of Conduct is given to each new employee of the Group. Its content is also systematically recalled during training sessions and meetings organised by the subsidiaries’ Senior Management.
