Aquent conducts its affairs in accordance with the highest ethical business practices and complies with all applicable laws and regulations worldwide.
We therefore have an employee Code of Conduct and Business Ethics (the code) which sets forth legal and ethical standards for all officers and employees of Aquent. Aquent communicates this to all employees and every employee has the duty to read, understand, and comply with the Code.
Aquent employees are expected to use good judgment and common sense in complying with the Code, which applies to Aquent and all of its subsidiaries and other business entities controlled by Aquent worldwide.
Aquent employees, directors, contractors, and agents are required to comply with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to Aquent wherever it does business.
As part of our commitment to business ethics, Aquent has implemented strong equality, privacy, safety and anti-slavery policies.
