Code of Conduct

Every company expects its employees to meet the highest professional standards, to act ethically and with integrity.

Common FAQs

How can I log breaches in our Environmental Procedures?

Our Compliance Breach Register helps you track breaches of your Environmental Procedures. It allows you to securely log incidents and maintain a clear audit trail. By centralising this process, you can monitor compliance, analyse trends, and demonstrate accountability in line with ESG standards.

How can employees report ESG-related concerns anonymously? 

Our Whistleblowing Register allows employees to report any ESG-related issues, such as environmental risks, ethical breaches, or governance concerns. This secure and anonymous platform ensures that employees feel safe raising concerns.

How can I ensure employees are aware of and comply with our Environmental Procedures? 

With our Policy Hub, you can easily distribute your Environmental Procedures to employees and ensure compliance. The tool allows you to assign policies, track acknowledgements, and send automated reminders to those who haven't attested yet. 

Are the courses SCORM-compliant?

Yes. This means they can be delivered via the Skillcast Portal or any other SCORM-compliant Learning Management System.

What other tools are needed beyond training?

A comprehensive compliance solution often needs more than just training. Alongside e-learning, tools like declarations, surveys, and registers that track compliance tasks are usually essential. Skillcast provides full support to help you set up these additional tools.

Can users only view the courses assigned to them?

No. All users can view all the courses in your Portal. Additionally, some of these courses may be mandatory, requiring completion by the given deadline.
