Free Bribery Act Toolkit Worth £99.99

More Information

Under the Act an organisation is liable if a person ‘associated with’ it offers a bribe, intending to give the company a business advantage.  Employers have a defence only if they can prove they had in place ‘adequate procedures’ designed to prevent bribery.

Businesses therefore need to have suitable anti-corruption policies and provide training for staff on a regular basis. If a company is guilty of the corporate offence, it could receive an unlimited fine.

HR Legal Service’s Bribery Act toolkit is a comprehensive commercial legal product, designed to guide organisations through Bribery Act compliance and aid in the implementation of relevant bribery prevention procedures.

The toolkit comprises:

• An anti-corruption and bribery policy.
• A comprehensive and user-friendly ‘Compliance Checklist’, designed specifically to assess whether an organisation’s anti-bribery procedures are adequate, proportionate and compliant. It includes practical advice in the form of recommended actions and useful schedules containing key information.
• A ‘memorandum to the board of directors’ – clearly explaining the issues, highlighting the specific risks faced and recommending appropriate prevention procedures.
• Template letters communicating your organisation’s stance on bribery and the policies and procedures it has in place. These can then be sent out internally and externally, allowing you to effectively communicate your position to all ‘associated persons’.

The free Bribery Act Toolkit can be obtained by submitting a short request form on the HR Legal Service web site at www.hrlegalservice.co.uk.
