Companies that give priority to ethical procurement and equitable working conditions frequently benefit from enhanced brand reputation, higher consumer loyalty, and financial incentives. This course demonstrates how to safeguard compliance and track ethical performance using case studies and real-world examples from Intel, Starbucks, and Patagonia, which apply theoretical concepts to practical business circumstances while highlighting the genuine advantages of ethical supply chain management.

First, we explore legal and regulatory compliance, which preserves the supply chain's integrity, efficiency, and ethical standards. Subsequently, we learn how to identify and alleviate supply chain risks and the ethical approach of crisis management, including risk assessment and post-crisis evaluation. We then discuss anti-corruption and anti-bribery policies encouraging transparency and accountability and the essential components of cultivating a compliance culture.

Next, we investigate the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), vital for measuring, managing, and communicating ethical performance. Then, you'll learn about advancing ethical standards through enhanced transparency and the most effective ways to communicate ethical practices to stakeholders. Following that, we cover benchmarking and continual improvement techniques, key elements of ethical supply chain management. This course will prepare you to face the ethical problems of modern supply chains and emerge as an expert in your field. Enrol now!
