Code of Conduct

 
Home AboutWhat We DoStandardsCode of Conduct

IABC Code of Conduct

IABC is a global community of friendly and welcoming members. We value the support we provide for each other and are grateful for the hard work of volunteers and staff.

In that spirit, IABC is committed to providing a safe and supportive environment at all IABC sponsored events—both virtual and face-to-face events, as well as all online forums. It is obvious that an environment free of bullying, discrimination, harassment and other unprofessional conduct is better for everyone. However, it is not always obvious when bullying, discrimination, or harassment occurs or how certain conduct can be perceived by others.

Sometimes this can occur unknowingly. There are subtle and inappropriate exchanges that can build up over time to become bullying and harassment. Each of us has a role to play to ensure we have a culture that is safe, supportive and inclusive.

This IABC Code of Conduct sets forth our expectations for all attendees and participants, including members, speakers, vendors, media representatives, exhibitors, sponsors, volunteers and staff (all participants) at IABC virtual or face-to-face events.
