SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Global
nutritional supplement company USANA has once again been recognized
— in the 2016 Direct Selling Association (DSA) Code of Ethics
Communication Initiative — for taking its ethical business
practices to the next level within the direct sales industry. This
year's recognition marks the seventh consecutive year USANA has
been named to the initiative, whose purpose is to encourage and
promote the education and communication of the DSA Code of Ethics
among member companies, members of the field and the general
public.
"USANA takes ethical business practices very seriously—that is
why we are proud to be a part of such an important initiative,"
said Dan Whitney, vice president of
ethics and market expansion. "Every year, we voluntarily
participate in the Code of Ethics Communication Initiative because
of our commitment to the highest level of ethics in operating a
direct sales business. Being accepted to this initiative is a
testament that USANA wants all of its customers and the public to
know about the code that guides ethical business practices and
consumer services in this remarkable industry."
Created in 2008, the initiative recognizes member companies that
go above and beyond in their efforts to promote awareness of the
code by fulfilling the necessary criteria and adhering
to ethical business practices within direct sales. The
initiative encourages companies to be truthful about their
products, services, identity and privacy. It seeks to eliminate
deceptive or unlawful consumer or recruiting practices and creates
an environment of ethical business practices.
To qualify for recognition, USANA had to complete at
least five of 16 recommended activities before March of this
calendar year, but went above and beyond and completed seven.
USANA's qualifications were then reviewed by DSA staff and verified
by DSA's code administrator.
