Introduction
VisionEthics Advisory Services Sdn. Bhd. (VE) adopts a zero- tolerance policy against all forms of bribery and corruption. The Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy (hereinafter referred to as the “ABAC Policy”) outline the standards and expectations to VE directors, employees (permanent, contract, or temporary), and business associates (including vendors, consultants, agents, and partners) acting on VE’s behalf.
VE strictly prohibits the following activities in all business dealings:
- Soliciting or receiving bribes: Personnel and business associates must not request, agree to receive, or accept any form of gratification as an inducement or reward for performing or refraining from any act.
- Offering or giving bribes: Personnel and business associates must not offer, promise, or give any gratification to any person—including public officials or private sector counterparts—to obtain or retain a business advantage.
- False claims: The submission or approval of inaccurate, incomplete, or false documentation (e.g., expenses, invoices, contracts) with the intent to deceive VE or third parties is strictly prohibited.
- Abuse of position: Personnel must not use their authority or position within VE for personal gratification or to benefit connected parties.
- Conflict of interest: Personnel must not allow personal interests to interfere, or appear to interfere, with objective business judgment. Any actual or potential conflicts must be formally declared and managed.
Obligation to report: All personnel and its business associates have an obligation to report any bribery and corrupt practices to the relevant authorities. VE will support and protect employees and its business who report such attempts and ensure confidentiality and non-retaliation. Any personnel or VE’s business associates in violation of the ABAC Policy shall face disciplinary action and/ or legal consequences. Non-compliance shall be dealt in line with laws and regulations and include reporting to MACC and/ or other enforcement agencies, where appropriate.
Raising concerns: Integrity concerns must be reported through VE’s official, secure whistleblowing channel at [email protected]. Reports may be made anonymously and must be submitted in good faith.
Protection and non-retaliation: VE provides protection against reprisal, demotion, or penalization for any individual who refuses to pay or receive a bribe, even if such refusal results in a loss of business for VE. Identical protections apply to those who report violations in good faith.
Disciplinary Action: Violations of this policy will result in immediate disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment or business contracts, and referral to law enforcement agencies for criminal prosecution.
