INTRODUCTION AND ACCOUNTABILITY

Understand How to Use the Code

You should use the Code as a resource to help determine the right course of action when the right choices are not obvious. The Code provides a high-level view of your ethical and legal responsibilities. It also directs you to a number of policies where you can find more specific information on certain topics.

The Code applies to all coworkers and our Board of Directors. It applies to all CDW activities and all CDW locations. You are responsible for understanding the Code and how it applies to your role.

Tough Decision?

Ask Yourself:

Can I?

  • Is there a company policy prohibiting it?
  • What does The CDW Way Code say?
  • Is it legal?
  • Am I the right person to make the decision?

Should I?

  • Would I be proud to explain this to my customers, family, friends, manager or fellow coworkers?
  • Is it consistent with The CDW Way?

Am I sure?

  • Do I need to seek help or advice from someone else?
  • Have I looked at this decision from every angle?
