Corporate Responsibility
Business Conduct
We are committed to conducting our business with integrity. This is essential to earning the trust of our stakeholders.
Our code of business conduct describes the ethical standards that we require from our employees and is supported by a comprehensive set of policies.
We raise awareness of our standards so that employees understand our values, and we encourage them and people outside Motorola Solutions to report ethical concerns using a variety of reporting channels. We investigate all allegations of ethical misconduct and make process improvements and/or take disciplinary action when claims are substantiated, up to and including dismissal.
Management oversight
The audit and legal committee of our board of directors has overall responsibility for compliance with our code of business conduct. Our ethics and compliance office manages our ethics program for the company and presents a full report to the committee at its meeting each quarter, as well as monthly reports on matters under review.
The ethics and compliance office works with our internal business teams, the finance department and law department to monitor legal compliance and business risk. The office also works closely with our procurement team to ensure compliance with our supplier policies.
At the local level, business conduct champions promote compliance programs to employees. Senior leaders regularly communicate business conduct expectations to employees.
