[All L4M4 Questions]

According to the CIPS code of conduct, which laws should a procurement professional adhere to?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The CIPS Code of Conduct says to adhere to all laws of countries in which I practice. So if you're in the UK and procure stuff from China, you need to abide by both UK and Chinese laws, not just UK laws.

There's no international procurement laws- these are all different for different countries.

ILO doesn't publish laws.

I think a procurement professional should adhere to all laws within countries they have business and contracts in. It's crucial for maintaining trust and reputation.

I believe international laws should also be followed, especially when dealing with global supply chains.

But what about international procurement legislation? Shouldn't that be considered as well?

I believe it's crucial to also follow laws within countries we have business and contracts in, so option D makes sense to me.
