Compliance and integrity “Nothing is more important than our commitment to compliance and integrity — no financial objective, no marketing target, and no effort to outdo the competition. No desire to please the boss outweighs that core commitment. Our commitment to compliance and integrity must always come first.” Louis C. Camilleri Chairman and CEO Philip Morris International PMI Code of conduct
Compliance and integrity Integrity: Doing What Is Right Ask Before Acting • Is it legal? • Does it follow company policy? • Is it the right thing to do? • How would it look to those outside the company? Remember These Rules • Know the legal and company standards that apply to your job. • Follow these standards — always. • Ask if you are ever unsure what’s the right thing to do. • Keep asking until you get the answer.
