IOA Standards of Practice & Code of EthicsThe IOA Standards of Practice are based upon and derived from the ethical principles stated in the IOA Code of Ethics. Each Ombuds office should have an organizational Charter or Terms of Reference, approved by senior management, articulating the principles of the Ombuds function in that organization and their consistency with the IOA Standards of Practice. UPDATE: On 17 March 2022, the IOA Board of Directors approved and put into effect the final version of the revised Standards of Practice (SOP) and Code of Ethics (COE). In June 2022, we completed 12 translations of the documents. Learn more about the process on The Independent Voice. If you would like to suggest another language to add to our translation list, please email the IOA office at [email protected]. |
