Recent initiatives

Code of conduct training

Code of conduct training

In 2024, 98% of bnode employees received training (created by the HR and Compliance departments) on the Code of Conduct through in-class session for staff without a business email address or through a dedicated e-learning channel for staff with one. Made up of different sections, this training underlined the importance of responsible behavior towards clients and colleagues.

Speak up program

Speak up program

A Speak Up program was launched in 2023 featuring a secure 24/7 reporting channel (confidential or anonymous). All bnode employees were informed by letter and email of the program’s launch and how to report incidents. This same information was also communicated via videowalls and posters at all company premises.
