Business integrity
Honesty, integrity, rigor and fair play are at the core of the Ethical Toy Program.
All ICTI Ethical Toy Program staff – and our appointed third-party auditors – must observe the laws and regulations of the jurisdiction where they are located, and maintain a high standard of professional ethics when conducting business. We take a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption.
We expect all ICTI Ethical Toy Program Accredited auditors – whether internal audit specialists or third-party accredited auditors – to be courteous to factory staff during an audit and perform their work with honesty, diligence, and responsibility.
You can view a list of the third-party audit firms accredited by the Ethical Toy Program here. A list of Ethical Toy Program Audit Specialist Staff is available here.
