1. Leadership’s Commitment to Ethics
2. Communication of Ethical Practices
3. Organizational Commitment to Ethical Practices
4. Organizational Commitment to Performance Management Practices
5. Organizational Commitment to the Community
“Known for upholding high ethical standards, this year’s finalists join over 200 localbusines ses part of BBB’s community of trustworthy businesses,” said Dory Gosar, BBB Foundation Director. “Doing the right thing is not always easy and these companies have demonstrated a commitment to ethical practices even in the most difficult times.”
