Our Commitment to Integrity and Ethics
At Kantar we are committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity and ethical conduct. This is set out in our code of conduct, the Kantar Business Principles. By fostering a culture of integrity and transparency, we uphold Kantar's core values and strengthen our position as a trusted partner to our clients and stakeholders alike.
Our policies support our zero-tolerance stance against unlawful and unethical activities, and we take proactive steps to prevent these. Any breach of policy is taken seriously, is thoroughly investigated and appropriately addressed. Our 24 hour Right to Speak service is provided by a third party to allow anonymous reporting and we operate a policy of non-retaliation.
We take these commitments seriously, and any breach of our policies may result in disciplinary action, including, in serious cases, potential dismissal or termination of a contingent worker’s engagement. Our independent and anonymous Right to Speak service can be used by anyone who works for or on behalf of Kantar to report concerns about the way that Kantar operates and conducts its business, or about any suspected wrongdoing.
