LRN 2026 Code of Conduct Report
What’s in this report from LRN:
LRN’s 2026 code of conduct report combines an analysis of more than 1,000 codes of conduct with a survey of approximately 2,000 employees across 16 industries and 15 countries to examine how organizations design and deploy their codes — and how employees actually experience them. The findings point to an important shift: For most organizations, creating a code of conduct is no longer the primary challenge. Making it useful is.
