OUR CODE
Our Responsibilities
We do business responsibly. This means we follow Qnity’s Code of Conduct and commitments, comply with laws, regulations, and company policies, and act with integrity in all that we do. If any of these standards appear to conflict, consult a member of the Qnity Legal team for appropriate guidance.
To meet these responsibilities, we must:
Not ask or allow others—such as suppliers, agents, or contractors—to do anything we are not allowed to do ourselves.
Speak up if we have questions or concerns about the company’s practices.
Never hide someone’s failure to comply with a law, a regulation, or a company policy or procedure.
Report suspected violations of the law, Code, or company policies.
Cooperate fully and honestly in any investigation.
