Join us in July as he speaks on Ethics in HR: Restoring Confidence. In today's competitive business environment, companies are constantly striving to outpace their rivals. This often pressures management and HR to push boundaries. But is it right to test these limits? To see how far you can go before trust is broken? HR professionals must stay impartial, balancing the needs of both the company and its employees without compromising their integrity. Any lapse in ethical standards can undermine their effectiveness. SHRM's Code of Ethics underscores this responsibility.This session will highlight the importance of adhering to both the letter and the spirit of the law, emphasizing that the reputation of HR professionals and the entire field is at stake. Participants will also explore real-world scenarios where ethical dilemmas arise and discuss strategies to navigate these challenges effectively. Maintaining ethical standards is not just about compliance; it's about fostering trust and credibility within the organization.

Leaning Objectives:
• Understand the provisions of the HR Professional Code of Ethics including professional responsibilities, professional development, ethical leadership, fairness and justice, conflicts of interest, and use of information.
• Develop a strategy to deal with ethical dilemmas in the workplace and impact change, and learn how unethical behavior has impacted other companies. 
• Identify ways to avoid the perception of being the “Department of No” and instead discover alternative solutions that are a win-win while still maintaining ethical standards.
