Atlas Copco uses culture of compliance to become one of the world's most ethical companies

Atlas Copco (www.atlascopco.com) was named one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies by the Ethisphere Institute (www.ethisphere.com). Ethical business practices are a key element in Atlas Copco’s operations.

Atlas Copco also provides an annual corruption-awareness training program that thousands of employees participated in last year, and all company management is committed to compliance with the company’s Business Code of Practice.
