Responsible consulting policy

---

Purpose

The purpose of this policy is to outline the principles and practices that ensure responsible consulting by Mosaic Human Capital Innovations (MHCI). This policy aims to uphold the highest standards of integrity, professionalism, and ethical behaviour in all our consulting engagements.

Scope

This policy applies to all employees, consultants, and subcontractors engaged in consulting activities on behalf of MHCI.

Core Principles

MHCI is committed to conducting all consulting activities with honesty, transparency, and integrity. We maintain a professional demeanor and respect for all clients and stakeholders, ensuring that all communications and reports are accurate, clear, and truthful

Confidentiality and data protection are paramount; we safeguard all client information and data, maintaining strict confidentiality and complying with relevant data protection laws and regulations. We always obtain client consent before sharing or using their data for purposes beyond the consulting engagement.

To avoid any situation where personal interests conflict with professional duties, we require disclosure of any potential or actual conflicts of interest to the relevant parties immediately. Consultants must refrain from engaging in activities that could compromise the objectivity of our services.

Providing consulting services within the boundaries of individual and organisational competence is a key tenet, and MHCI commits to continuous professional development and staying updated with industry best practices. Seeking feedback from clients is a practice we uphold to improve service quality and effectiveness.

Understanding and prioritising the needs and goals of our clients is central to our approach. We deliver customised solutions that are in the best interest of the client and maintain regular communication to ensure alignment and satisfaction.

Adhering to all applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards is a non-negotiable aspect of our consulting services. We promote ethical behaviour within the organisation and among our clients, and any unethical behaviour or malpractice encountered during consulting engagements is promptly reported.

MHCI encourages sustainable practices and solutions in all consulting projects, considering the social and environmental impact of our recommendations. We support initiatives that promote positive social change and community development.

Implementation and Compliance

Implementation and compliance with this policy are achieved through regular training on responsible consulting practices for all employees and consultants, ensuring awareness of the policy and its importance in maintaining MHCI’s reputation and trustworthiness

Mechanisms to monitor compliance with this policy are in place, along with a clear process for reporting breaches or concerns regarding responsible consulting practices. Appropriate action is taken against violations of this policy, including disciplinary measures where necessary.

The policy is reviewed annually to ensure its relevance and effectiveness, and updates are made as needed to reflect changes in laws, regulations, or industry standards.

All MHCI employees, consultants, and subcontractors are responsible for adhering to this policy. The management team is responsible for ensuring the policy is effectively implemented and maintained.
