As such we have obligations to our readers, viewers and the wider public, but also to our advertisers, suppliers and partners.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">Our brand and our values are our most vital assets. Their maintenance depends on our commitment to the core journalistic values of accuracy, fairness and fearless reporting in the public interest.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">Our ability to provide high quality journalism depends on commercial success. In a fast-changing media world, we must innovate to achieve that success, while at all times ensuring we preserve editorial independence, which is paramount to the integrity of all our products.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">These guiding principles outline standards of good practice which are to be observed and maintained by all employees, contractors and freelancers who provide services to the Company.</span></p> <p class="p5"><span class="s2">They will form an ongoing part of training for all staff.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Observing industry Codes</strong></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">Telegraph staff must be familiar with and observe all relevant industry Codes.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">The Editors’ Code of Practice administered by the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) stipulates that the press must take care not to publish inaccurate, misleading or distorted information.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">The Advertising Code administered by the Committee of Advertising Practice (CAP Code) and enforced by the Advertising Standards Authority, lays down rules for advertisers, agencies and media owners to follow. Under the Code advertising must be responsible, and not mislead, harm or offend its audience. Particular rules cover advertising to children and specific sectors such as alcohol, gambling, motoring, health and financial products.</span></p> <p class="p5"><span class="s2">The Content and Native Disclosure Guidelines issued by the Internet Advertising Bureau UK (IAB) set out principles of best practice to promote continued growth in innovative areas of advertising.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Ensuring a clear distinction between editorial and commercial activities</strong></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">It is entirely appropriate, and indeed essential, that editorial staff understand and contribute to the commercial success of the Telegraph. However, editorial independence must always be maintained. Commercial staff should not influence editorial’s story judgments in connection with any advertiser’s or potential advertiser’s interest. The final decision on all editorial content is the Editor’s.</span></p> <p class="p5"><span class="s2">Any commercially paid content beyond traditional advertisements must be clearly and appropriately marked as per protocols.</span></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">Transparency</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">It is perfectly proper for journalists to write content that is paid for commercially, provided that it is clearly marked as such. In undertaking such tasks, journalists should do nothing to compromise their ability to write for our audience objectively, fairly and honestly.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">If a company has provided any significant free products or services to assist with editorial this must be appropriately noted.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">Uses of social media to promote a company’s product or services must be clearly marked as commercial content and must comply with the CAP Code and TMG protocols.</span></p> <p class="p5"><span class="s2">TMG staff who have personal social media accounts should also follow the CAP Code if promoting a commercial campaign.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Payments in respect of the creation of commercial content</strong></p> <p class="p5"><span class="s2">All payments to staff and contributors for the creation of commercial content must be approved by their line manager in advance in writing. Commercially funded positions in editorial are permitted but hires must be made by editorial and such staff must work to editorial contracts and in line with editorial standards.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Enforcing these guidelines</strong></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">All commercial campaigns involving editorial should adhere to these guidelines, Codes and accompanying protocols. They must have senior editorial executive signoff before they are agreed.</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s2">Complex, exceptional or controversial issues will be escalated to a weekly editorialcommercial meeting for signoff.

It sets out the steps taken by the Telegraph Media Group during 2016 aimed at ensuring that there is no slavery or human trafficking taking place in our own business nor in our supply chains. We are committed to preventing slavery and human trafficking in our corporate activities, and to ensuring that our supply chains are free from slavery and human trafficking.</p> <p><strong>Our business and supply chains</strong><br/> The Telegraph is a multi-platform media organisation employing a workforce with diverse skill sets. Its core business is publication in print and online of the following newspaper titles: The Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Telegraph and The Telegraph, a weekly world edition and the website: www.telegraph.co.uk and its main strategy is to make content available through traditional and new media formats, including print, web and digital content on computers and mobile devices.<br/> Our company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and has a large global audience. We engage with a number of suppliers for our operations, including printing and distribution, building and office services, events services, media services, recruitment, technology, training.</p> <p><strong>Policies and Processes</strong><br/> The Company strives to maintain the highest standards of conduct and ethical behaviour from our employees and our suppliers. We have a wide range of policies relating modern slavery which we have embedded in our Staff Handbook and our Supplier Business Code of Conduct. Our policies make it clear to our staff and our suppliers the actions and behaviour expected of them. Our employees and our suppliers are required to observe those policies and codes. Additionally our whistleblowing policy encourages our employees, customers, business partners and suppliers, to report any concerns, including any circumstances that may give rise to an enhanced risk of slavery or human trafficking.<br/> We undertake due diligence when engaging with new suppliers, especially where there is potential for modern slavery. We have written to all our existing suppliers to raise awareness of modern slavery and seek assurances from them that they provide safe working conditions where necessary, treat workers with dignity and respect, and act ethically and within the law in their use of labour.</p> <p>We have evaluated the modern slavery and human trafficking risks for our suppliers and identified those where there is a higher potential for modern slavery. The areas of enhanced risk are monitored by our procurement and compliance teams.</p> <p><strong>Training and Awareness </strong><br/> The company requires professionals in our procurement, compliance and HR teams to complete training on modern slavery. As well as training staff, we will be raising awareness of modern slavery issues and reiterating to our staff our Supplier Business Code of Conduct.<br/> This statement has been approved by the organisation’s Senior Management Group, who will review and update it annually.</p> <p><strong>Nick Hugh</strong><br/> CEO</p> <h2></h2> <h2>Ultimate Parent Company and Controlling Party</h2> <p>The Company’s immediate parent company is Press Acquisitions Limited, incorporated in Great Britain, which the directors regard as being ultimately controlled by Sir David and Sir Frederick Barclay’s Family Settlements.</p> </p> </div> </div> </section> </main> <footer> <div class="footer-icon"> <div class="container container-reset"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200129114440/https://corporate.telegraph.co.uk/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20200129114440im_/https://i5g5o13i2ef25hzva1kvyiu1-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/themes/the-telegraph-corporate/assets/img/logo-footer.png" height="23" alt="telegraph"> </a> <a href="#" class="to-top pull-right"> Back to Top <i class="icon-arrow-top-ttc"></i> <span class="sr-only">Telegraph</span> </a> </div> </div> </footer> <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var thickboxL10n = {"next":"Next >","prev":"< Prev","image":"Image","of":"of","close":"Close","noiframes":"This feature requires inline frames.
