The Tyco Board of Directors maintains three standing committees to assist in conducting business:
Audit Committee
Compensation and Human Resources Committee
Nominating and Governance Committee
These three committees composed entirely of independent directors. Assignments to, and chairs of, the Audit and Compensation and Human Resources Committee are recommended by the Nominating and Governance Committee and selected by the board. The independent directors as a group elect the members and the chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee. All committees report on their activities to the board.
Tyco's commitment to the highest standards of integrity begins with making sure that everyone across the organization understands the company's core values of integrity, excellence, teamwork and accountability.
