APRA AMCOS Statement of Expectations
APRA AMCOS is committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for everyone.
We expect everyone involved with APRA AMCOS to respect others, and to act lawfully, safely and responsibly. These expectations apply to our members, staff, advisory groups partners, award nominees, award winners and everyone involved in any APRA AMCOS function, event and program, and to partners and contractors in their dealings with APRA AMCOS.
