Your Code of Conduct

Abstract

This Code of Conduct is a statement of our principles and expectations that guide ethical business conduct at Verizon. Verizon requires all employees to use their judgment, to be accountable for their actions and to conduct business with integrity. This Code of Conduct reflects our changing business environment and has been approved by the Verizon Board of Directors. It applies to everyone who acts on behalf of Verizon and its controlled domestic subsidiaries and affiliates (except Verizon Wireless, which has its own code) — including employees, executive officers, agents, consultants, contingent workers and interns. In addition to governing conduct among employees, this Code governs conduct between employees and customers, competitors and the numerous business providers (including suppliers, vendors, contractors and agents) who assist Verizon everyday. Because we want our business providers, customers and investors to understand how we do business and what they can expect of us, this Code appears on the Verizon website and will be made available to the public in our governmental filings.
