Course
Construction Ethics and Compliance
$0.00
Summary
Helps you understand the concept of ethics, why they matter, and why being ethical goes deeper than just being compliant and legal.
Some of the largest construction firms in the world have faced the prospect of multi-million fines for significant breaches of ethics and compliance recently – from bribery and collusion to modern slavery. Yet many businesses are reaping the rewards of being values and ethically driven. You’ll learn that ethics is defined as a set of moral principles that govern a person’s behaviour or the conducting of an activity, and reflect on what that means for you as a professional in the industry and for your business.
The online course requires around 2 hours per section.  You can participate at your own pace and around your schedule. It will help you to:
