Ethics

Procter & Gamble prides themselves on being an ethical company.  They are not a business that comes to mind when thinking of ethical controversies that arise in the media.  Purpose, values, and principles are what lead Procter & Gamble employees through their work weeks.

 "Our Purpose unifies us in a common cause and growth 
strategy of improving more consumers’ lives in small but meaningful ways each day. 
It inspires us to make a positive contribution every day.  
Our Values reflect the behaviors that shape the tone of how we work with
each other and with our partners.  Our Principles articulate our unique 
approach to doing our work."

Their Worldwide Business Manual covers every aspect of ethics in the work place, how to report them, and expectations of employees and their behavior.  They say"[o]ur character has been built on the foundation of integrity, trust, and respect since our beginning in 1837."
