The LRN 2026 Code of Conduct Report analyses over 1,000 corporate codes and surveys roughly 2,000 employees across 16 industries and 15 countries. The study reveals that while drafting a code is no longer the main hurdle for organisations, ensuring it is practical and regularly used by staff is becoming increasingly challenging.
Key insights show a year‑on‑year drop in employee interaction with codes, a lack of actionable guidance such as decision‑making frameworks and scenario‑based Q&As, and gaps in addressing emerging risks like AI and technology ethics. The report offers recommendations for making codes more accessible, relevant, and adaptable to evolving risk landscapes.
