Accountability & Transparency

E S C O R D Accountability & Transparency

Accountability is the acceptance of responsibility for one’s own actions. It implies a willingness to be transparent, allowing others to observe and evaluate one’s performance.The accountability Principle requires you to take responsibility for what you do with personal data and how you comply with the other principles. You must have appropriate measures and records in place to be able to demonstrate your compliance.A transparent workplace promotes a two-way conversation between employees and management and openly and honestly discusses matters pertaining to business performance, goals, objectives, and more. Everyone may also provide feedback concerning decisions, performance, and business objectives.Valuing employees and taking input are essential aspects of running any business, no matter the industry. Services that value transparency and accountability encourage their employees to share their feedback on key issues and provide safe spaces for dialogue, discussions, and even sharing concerns anonymously. Transparency is the quality of being easily seen through, while transparency in a business or governance context refers to being open and honest. We are maintaining these principles.
