We expect all our teams to demonstrate respect, loyalty, integrity and transparency day to day. To help them, we’ve introduced numerous measures.

Internal events
like our annual Compliance Day, also help raise employee awareness.

Rexel’s ethics and compliance governance
includes dedicated Ethics Correspondents, Compliance Officers and an Ethics Committee.
