DRAFT Model Code of Ethics
for a Construction Firm
Background: Since its founding more than 85 years ago, the Canadian Construction Association (CCA) has worked to improve the business environment in the construction industry. CCA developed one of the first industry codes of ethics in the 1950s. It has developed and continues to produce standard industry contract forms and best practices guides designed to establish and promote industry-endorsed and recommended practices and procedures and to promote integrity throughout the contracting chain. In keeping with that tradition and a renewed emphasis on matters of ethics as outlined in CCA?s new Strategic Plan, the following Model Code of Ethics has been developed by CCA for use by its members.
