What is the Code of Conduct?
We operate a Code of Conduct for our members, which sets out the principles of good practice for a woodworking or joinery business. The Code represents the standard to which all members have committed themselves to achieving. The aim is to:
- Set a benchmark standard for the woodworking and joinery industry and help members to achieve it
- Promote and encourage standards and quality in the industry
- Give members confidence in their colleagues
- Ensure the BWF logo is recognised increasingly as a mark of quality, so that customers choose BWF members.
The Code itself is supported by a Guide to Compliance, which sets out how these principles might be applied practically to a woodworking or joinery business so as to comply with the Code's intentions ensuring a consistent interpretation of the Code's principles.
All our members are expected to commit themselves to compliance. If a company does not meet the standard, it is expected to work towards compliance. New members who do not comply on joining are expected to reach the standard within 12 months of completing their application.
