Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before creating your document.

Can we issue different Codes of Conduct for managers and other employees?+

Yes. This template allows you to select a target employee category and includes conditional sections for managerial and senior leadership expectations. You can generate and circulate tier-specific versions if needed.

How does this Policy interact with local laws?+

The Policy is intended to be consistent with Indian legal principles. In case of any conflict between the Policy and applicable law, the law will prevail, and the Company may amend the Policy accordingly.

Is acceptance of the Code of Conduct mandatory for employees?+

As a best practice, all employees should formally acknowledge the Code of Conduct. Acceptance can be integrated with onboarding, HRIS workflows, or annual compliance certifications.

Can social media guidelines be shortened if we already have a separate social media policy?+

Yes. You can choose not to include detailed social media guidelines in this document and instead cross-refer to your standalone social media policy for specifics.
