Cracking the Code

TIS and TQMS present an e-learning course to unravel and understand the TATA Code of Conduct.

What is the TATA Code of Conduct?

The TATA Code of Conduct (TCoC) is a clearly defined document which serves as a guide to TATA employees and companies on the principles of ethics in business.

The Clauses of the Code provide guidelines on issues beyond financial propriety, on corporate and personal behaviour.

The Code and You (1 of 2)

Should I gift an expensive watch to my client?

Should I complain about my colleague who has been sneaking out of office everyday for freelance work?

Should I report my boss’s “improper” advances?

Should I take printouts for my children’s homework from the office printer?

The Code and You (2 of 2)

Of the many challenges an employee faces, perhaps the most difficult are ethical dilemmas. Such dilemmas are generally not black and white. There are various issues to be considered before taking a decision.

The TATA Code of Conduct is the guideline to follow when facing such a situation.

Structure of the Course

Each Clause module is divided into the following topics: • Scenario

• Dilemma Checkpoint

• Summing Up

Scenario

Scenarios, closely resembling real life situations, make the learning engaging and interesting.

Dilemma

In the checkpoint that stems from the scenario, the learner has to identify the right course of action in a dilemma, with the help of a Clause.

The answers will improve their understanding of the Clauses of the TCoC on which the scenario is based.

Clause and Interpretation

Here, the learner is presented the specific Clause.

The Interpretation of the Clause is presented through an interactive button. Also, important words work as hyperlinks for an explanation.

Summing Up

In this final screen, the key points that will require intense scrutiny, are presented to reinforce the learning and ensure that the requirements of the specific Clause are met.
