What is Code of Conduct?

A written document that outlines the behavioral expectations, ethical standards, and professional norms all employees must follow in the workplace.

Why it matters in hiring

Code of Conduct comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
