ABSTRACT
The drive toward responsible management has had a profound impact on standards and expectations relating to corporate governance including changes in the written codes, policies and procedures that are necessary in order to make sure that the corporate governance program is properly implemented and monitored. This chapter discusses how sustainability has impacted a wide range of common internal governance instruments including codes of conduct and ethics, suppliers’ codes of conduct, environmental policies, human rights policies, human resources policies and stakeholder engagement policies. The chapter also provides guidance on preparation and use of a corporate social responsibility manual.
