Ethics

“Relativity applies to physics, not ethics.”
Albert Einstein

On 26.11.2021, the Sports Parliament unanimously adopted the Statutes on Ethics in Swiss Sport.

With the Ethics Statutes, Swiss Olympic and all its members commit themselves to professionalism, integrity and a healthy, respectful, fair and successful sport. The Ethics Statutes is based on the Olympic values – peak performance, friendship, respect – as well as the Ethics Charter in Swiss Sport.

The independent reporting and investigation body for ethical incidents in Swiss sport – Swiss Sport Integrity – has thus started operations as of 03.01.2022.

The Swiss Sport Integrity reporting and investigation unit handles reports it receives independently, confidentially and, if desired, anonymously.
