Through the implementation of anti-bribery and anti-corruption training, we can ensure that all internal stakeholders are aware of what constitutes these illegal activities so they can actively avoid them.

On top of awareness, this training program also aims to empower all employees, even on a staff level, to do their due diligence in assessing bribery and corruption risks in their day-to-day dealings.

Monitor and Review the Effectiveness of the Policy To ensure that our policy stays relevant to the way we conduct our business, we need to monitor and review its effectiveness on a regular basis. Do our financial and asset records accurately reflect expenditure and earnings reports? Is our policy well-written, and can be understood clearly by old and new employees alike? Is our policy easily accessible to relevant stakeholders? Answering these questions, aside from other use cases that may come up, can help us evaluate the effectiveness of our anti-bribery and anti-corruption policy so we can improve it with each future iteration as needed.
