I've been a Walmart associate for almost 19 years and in that time, I've learned much about Walmart's code of ethics. Walmart's code of ethics is basically comprised of four statements that constitute what Walmart calls their “Basic Believes”. Respect for the individual From the 1st day of orientation back in 2002 “respect for the individual” was considered the most important of Walmart’s basic beliefs. As someone who works in the IT Department, I believe that showing respect is paramount. Daily I'm in a position where I need to provide technical training to people who have little technical skill or knowledge.
