when you need help
Jack closed the door to his office so he could put the finishing touches on a big project for the Los Angeles Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, which he chaired. No sense advertising how he was really spending his time! Jack was in charge of planning next week’s black tie benefit, which typically brought in 400 attendees and lots of cash. All he had thought about and worked on for the past four weeks had been the benefit. It had been exhausting, but worth it. He glanced over at the stack of messages that had piled up—some as old as a month. In another pile were the candidate reports for the CFO search he was leading. He would be happy to get back to his client work, but it was important to him that this year’s benefit raised more money than ever before. It would be good for the foundation and it would be good for Heidrick & Struggles. And he would be a hero.
> Our Commitment
We are not just protecting the assets of our company for ourselves, our clients and our candidates, but as a publicly held company we also have a responsibility to shareholders and investors. As employees of Heidrick & Struggles we have a commitment to use our time and our company’s assets doing things that benefit the entire company, while also preventing waste and theft.
> Company Time
We recognize that employees need to spend a limited amount of time during the workday attending to personal business. Beyond that, employees need to feel comfortable asking their supervisor for additional time, and possible support, when special situations arise.
> Expense Account Padding
It is inappropriate to add false expenses to your expense account, to intentionally increase the amount of your expenses, or to charge the company for things that were for your own personal benefit. For more information on reporting business-related expenses, please refer to our Finance Policies & Procedures, including the Americas Travel and Expense Policy on the Heidrick & Struggles Intranet.
> Borrowing Office Supplies
Company property should be used solely for work-related functions and not personal benefit.
