Ethics & compliance
Our ethical reputation has earned the trust of our customers, suppliers, communities and shareholders.
Ethics are everyone’s responsibility
How we get our results is just as important as the results themselves, and an important measure of our company’s success. Our commitment to doing business right means conducting ourselves with integrity in our interactions with each other, our customers, our suppliers, and the communities in which we live and work.
Office of the Ombuds now part of Ethics
Eaton's Office of the Ombuds is now part of our Global Ethics and Compliance Office. Reach out to the Help Line to ask questions, raise a concern or report questionable conduct or business practices.
We count on every employee to make the right decision every time and to never compromise our ethics, values, or integrity under any circumstances. Together, our actions protect Eaton’s image, reputation and culture and ensure a strong organisation for all of our stakeholders.
We are listening
Our help line is a dedicated point of contact to ask a question, raise a concern or report questionable conduct or business practices. The help line is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and available in every language and in every country in which we do business. You can reach us by phone, e-mail, through an online form, by post or in person, all without fear of retaliation.
