The Hartford's Codes of Ethics & Business Conduct reflect our corporate culture of honesty, integrity and ethical behavior. They guide the way we treat one another, our clients and our community.
Message from Chairman and CEO
Doing the right thing every day is core to The Hartford’s character. Character is central to our company’s vision to be exceptional. We want to be known not only for our financial performance and our value to customers, but also for who we are.
Our annual employee surveys show that nearly all of our employees enthusiastically believe The Hartford shows a commitment to ethical business decisions and conduct. We can take great pride in the fact that our results far exceed the top 25 percent of global companies and that we work for a company that values ethical behavior and business practices.
Our stakeholders – customers, partners, investors, employees and regulators – know they can count on us to uphold the highest standards of ethics and compliance. The strength of our character is validated through recognition from the Ethisphere Institute, which has repeatedly named The Hartford as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies.
Let’s continue to be recognized as a company that goes well beyond making statements about doing business ethically, and translate those words into action. A good place to begin is The Hartford’s Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, which reinforces our behaviors and provides guidance when the right course of action may not be immediately clear.
Thank you for continuing to protect and sustain The Hartford’s character and reputation for integrity.
Regards,
Chris Swift
Chairman and CEO

The Code of Ethics was last changed on April 5, 2021 to create a policy that is inclusive of obligations and expectations of employees based both inside and outside the United States and to include a link to where Compliance policies relevant to all International employees can be found, as well as other technical, administrative and non-substantive changes.
