ABB is committed to fostering a culture where integrity is woven into the fabric of everything we do. Integrity must be embedded in our people, our businesses and processes, and this means acting responsibly and with accountability as individuals and as a company.

When you work with integrity, behavior that falls short of our standards and expectations is simply not an option.

From compliance to integrity

ABB is committed to fostering a culture where integrity is woven into the fabric of everything we do. Integrity must be embedded in our people, our businesses and processes. This means acting responsibly and with accountability as individuals and as a company.

For many years, the compliance program built a strong foundation of an uncompromising commitment to comply with the laws of wherever we do business. The change to integrity marks a significant step in our maturity as a company, reflecting our aspiration to embrace standards of conduct that go beyond pure legal compliance..

From strict compliance with the letter of the law driven by top-down communications, we are evolving toward a business-driven model supported by individual accountability and personal ownership of our integrity and business principles.

All ABB compliance standards, rules and guidelines remain in force. Behaving with integrity is the next step on the path, in which these standards, rules and guidelines are internalized and become second nature, across our entire organization.

All employees must understand that behaving with integrity is considered a core element of any career at ABB. Integrity is one of ABB's five strategic imperatives, and it is the responsibility of every ABB manager to ensure that their direct reports understand this.
