TEANA’s code of ethics will guide members in the conduct of their businesses, encouraging the membership to adhere to Association policy. Enhancement can certainly be made to the Code as new situations arise. Oversight of ethical compliance will be a responsibility of the Membership Committee.

 

The initial core principles for TEANA’s Code of Ethics are:

• Paying all invoices in a timely fashion.

• No direct back solicitation.

• No direct recruiting of trucks or employees from member companies.

• As part of the membership application process, each prospective TEANA member must sign a pledge to adhere to the Association’s Code of Ethics. Those who refuse to sign are not permitted to join.

Pledging to adhere to this Code will be part of the annual dues notification. Those who refuse to sign are declined the opportunity to renew their membership.

 

Those members who are found in violation of this Code may by subject to have their memberships revoked.
