Introduction
Doing the Right Thing is at the very core of who we are as a company and the services we offer. It is therefore important that we have a common understanding of what Doing The Right Thing means to help us frame our conversations both internally and externally.
Code of Ethics
The LRQA Code of Ethics is at the core of LRQA’s Ethics & Compliance programme. It applies to all colleagues and sets out the principles we follow to ensure we do things ethically, transparently, and safely. Click here to download our Code of Ethics.
Business Partner Code of Conduct
We demand the same dedication to acting ethically and with integrity from our third parties.

Speak Up

We have a zero tolerance for retaliation. LRQA does not accept any form of retaliation against individuals who report concerns in good faith.
