Page 12 of 23 Code of Conduct: Under our Compliance Program, the DMC provides employees with a booklet called the “Code of Conduct”. A copy of the “Code of Conduct” is given to each employee upon hire, as part of this training: The Code of Conduct booklet: Provides guidance to ensure that our work is done in an ethical and legal manner. Emphasizes the shared common values that guide our actions and helps resolve questions about appropriate conduct.

While the Code of Conduct provides a basic description of unacceptable conduct or performance it does not cover all behaviors that may occur in the workplace. Failure to comply with the code is a serious matter and can lead to disciplinary action (up to and including termination).
