How Taylor & Francis’ ethics team safeguards scholarly publishing integrity

Taylor & Francis' Publishing Ethics & Integrity (PEI) team upholds the highest standards in scholarly publishing. The team, led by an unknown individual, ensures trust in the academic record and protects research community interests.

The PEI team follows the COPE guidelines for ethical investigations, maintaining a consistent and objective approach. Decisions to retract published articles are not made by a single individual but involve the journal's editorial team. Colleagues in the PEI team have limited access to sensitive information and cannot share integrity datasets externally without authorization.

The PEI team comprises dedicated professionals who adhere to Taylor & Francis' Editorial Code of Conduct. Candidates must disclose previous research integrity activities, and all staff must declare potential conflicts of interest. This transparency and accountability ensure the team's integrity and commitment to scholarly publishing ethics.

The PEI team's processes and standards protect the integrity of the scholarly record. Despite the unknown leader, the team's commitment to transparency, accountability, and high ethical standards ensures trust in the academic community.
