Treating others with respect

All TIAH members are asked to treat everyone with courtesy, politeness, and respect and consider cultural sensitivities and business practices.

This behaviour includes: 

  • Always being courteous, polite, and considerate to people
  • Never discriminating against anyone for whatever reason; making sure that issues of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, size, religion, country of origin, or disability have no place in the way you deal with other people or do business
  • As much as you can, encourage the business you work for to put the fair and respectful treatment of people at the centre of its culture
