Thorpe is committed to compliance with the letter and spirit of foreign and domestic anti-corruption laws. These laws prohibit bribery and corrupt payments, gifts or inducements of any kind, to or from any person in the public or private commercial sector to gain an improper business advantage. That includes our customers, consultants, distributors, vendors, representatives and suppliers, as well as government officials.

Thorpe values open and transparent communication. Thorpe expects employees and business partners to report known or suspected misconduct involving Thorpe, even if they are in no way involved with the misconduct itself. The company can only do something about misconduct if it knows about it.

When concerns about integrity arise, we encourage employees to go to their supervisors, Human Resource managers, or other Thorpe Senior Managers. If their integrity concerns are not resolved, or they do not feel comfortable discussing them with anyone within the company, they can report their concern by mail, phone or Internet to the Thorpe Anti-Corruption Compliance Officer.

Thorpe suppliers, contractors, and other business partners can also report any business conduct and ethical concern via the same options below:
