Anti-Bribery Compliance - An Introduction to Your Responsibilities & Duties

Introduction

Corrupt acts are a risk to any business and its employees as they may result in prosecution, fines and other penalties and this may include barring you from tendering for business.

The case of Skansen Interiors Limited highlighted the need for organisations to have ‘adequate procedures’ in place in relation to a section 7 offence to prevent bribery.

Do you have policies and procedures in place to prevent bribery offences under the Bribery Act 2010? Do you have a dedicated officer in your business? Have you conducted staff training on the Bribery Act 2010?
