Code of Conduct

Our code serves as the moral compass that guides us when chasing the miracles of science to improve people’s lives.

Our Code of Conduct is our company’s “constitution” and a pre-requisite, mandatory read for all Sanofi employees and those we do business with. It also represents a public commitment to our stakeholders – healthcare professionals, patients, scientists, investors – who are entitled to know what we as Sanofians value and how we are playing to win with integrity.
