3. Does the organization have a formal or informal code of ethics? Describe the major feature of its ethical code. Does it have any structural means of supporting ethics (ombudsperson, ethics officer, disclosure mechanisms, ethics hotline, and ethics training)?

4. What is the source of its ethical practices (e.g. law, value-based leadership, and personal ethics of employees, cultural, professional/industry)? Would it pass a social audit? Has the organization encountered any major issues with regard to ethics or is it at risk in this area?
