	Codes of practice (often just referred to as ‘codes’ or CoPs) typically give authoritative and practical guidance about how those in a particular profession or activity should behave or undertake tasks in order to comply with legal or professional obligations. Typically, they are recommendations (often regarded as ‘best practice’) for doing things in a particular way and are usually drawn up by a regulatory authority, institute or association. As benchmarks for industry best practice, they can help people and organisations understand their obligations and uphold high industry standards.

Codes of practice (often just referred to as ‘codes’) typically give authoritative and practical guidance on how those in a particular profession or activity should behave or undertake particular tasks in order to comply with legal obligations. Typically, they are recommendations (often regarded as ‘best practice’) of doing things in a particular way and are usually drawn up by a regulatory authority. As benchmarks for industry best practice, they can help people and organisations understand their obligations and uphold high industry standards.

Codes may be drawn up to reflect legal provisions made in the sector concerned, or help people to comply with ethical and health and safety standards. Some may not be mandatory, while others could involve legal consequences if transgressed. For example, Approved Codes of Practice (ACOP) are guidance with legal standing and deal with working practices and hazardous materials.

A code may be drawn up by one body or have input from numerous. For example, the code of practice for grid-connected solar photovoltaic systems was published in 2014 by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). It was written by IET Standards with expert technical input from the BRE National Solar Centre.

There are codes applying to a vast array of human endeavour and can cover employment, advertising, health and safety, the way buildings are assembled, the way specific materials are manufactured and used, the way a site is organised, surveillance cameras, the way to safely store hazardous materials, picketing, etc. Some codes may be approved by parliament and used as procedural basis by public and private institutions, organisations companies and other bodies.

A code of practice may be specific or universal, for example, the code of practice for the sustainable use of soils on construction sites provides relevant advice on the use of soil in construction projects. In contrast, the code of practice for the welfare of cats applies to all cats, not just to tabby cats, etc. A code may be applicable to all the UK or only a part, e. g England.

Codes of practice can help to protect consumers in the provision of goods and services.
