Award Process Companies intending to participate will receive additional information on the process and details on the award entry form and its requirements. The 2010 Application and Submission Requirements are available. In addition, invited companies are encouraged to attend special events that offer an overview of the process, comments from previous recipients, and an opportunity to ask questions about the entry form. A company may be nominated to enter the Business Ethics Award process by a customer, client, employee, consultant, vendor, or any other person who believes that the company conducts business in a highly ethical manner. In addition, any company may nominate itself - this is a perfectly appropriate way to get involved. Once completed and submitted by October 31, 2010, award entry forms and supporting material are evaluated by an independent panel of judges composed of individuals with an expertise in business ethics and who are drawn from the business, academic, public service, media, and consulting communities. The judges evaluate the companies on documented evidence of the integrity of their corporate “code of ethics,” as well as a clear demonstration of the company’s commitment to ethical business practices through management and employee behavior. The judging criteria are stringent, and the result is an award that is coveted. The award will be presented on February 14, 2011, at our Gala Awards Luncheon. The award presented to recipients signifies the roots of ethics in the ancient world, strong ethical foundations, aspirations to high standards of business conduct, and the multifaceted nature of ethics in our daily lives.
