Ethics
At Staples, doing right is just as important as doing well. That's why we hold all our associates, from the boardroom to the store floor to the supply chain, to the highest standards of honesty, fairness and integrity. We also work hard to ensure all our associates, suppliers and partners understand and abide by our ethical standards.
Thinking globally
The Staples Global Code
of Conduct sets forth Staples’ expectations for ethical conduct, outlines how to take action if issues arise, and establishes best practices for anyone
acting on our behalf.
