POLICY STATEMENT
It is the policy of Sporting Legacies Limited (the Company) to conduct business honestly and ethically. As part of that, the Company takes a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption and is committed to acting professionally, fairly, and with integrity in all its business dealings and relationships, wherever it operates, and implementing and enforcing effective systems to counter bribery.
PURPOSE
The Company will uphold all laws relevant to countering bribery and corruption in all the jurisdictions in which it conducts business.
SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY
This policy applies to all individuals working for or on behalf of the Company at all levels and grades, whether permanent, fixed-term or temporary and wherever located, including consultants, contractors, seconded staff, casual staff, agency staff, volunteers, agents, sponsors and any other person who performs services for or on behalf of the Company, (collectively referred to as Workers in this policy).
In this policy, Third Party means any individual or organization that Workers come into contact with during the course of work and the running of the Company’s business and includes actual and potential clients, intermediaries, referrers of work, suppliers, distributors, business contacts, agents, advisers, government and public bodies (including their advisers, representatives and officials), politicians and political parties.
WHAT IS BRIBERY?
A bribe is an inducement or reward offered, promised, or provided to improperly gain any commercial, contractual, regulatory, or personal advantage, which may constitute an offence
, namely:
- giving or offering a bribe.
- receiving or requesting a bribe; or
- bribing a foreign public official.
The Company may also be liable if it fails to prevent bribery by an associated person (including, but not limited to Workers) for the Company’s benefit.
GIFTS AND HOSPITALITY
This policy does not prohibit normal and appropriate gifts and hospitality (given and received) to or from Third Parties unless otherwise specifically stated. However, we have specific internal policies and procedures which guide Workers as to what is to be regarded as normal and appropriate gifts and hospitality in terms of financial limits, subject to the principles set out below, namely that any gift or hospitality:
must not be made with the intention of improperly influencing a Third Party or Worker to obtain or retain business or a business advantage, or to reward the provision or retention of business or a business advantage, or in explicit or implicit exchange for favours or benefits;
- must comply with local law in all relevant countries;
- must be given in the name of the organization, not in an individual’s name;
- must not include cash or a cash equivalent;
- must be appropriate in the circumstances;
- must be of an appropriate type and value and given at an appropriate time taking into account the reason for the gift;
- must be given openly, not secretly; and
The Company appreciates that the practice of giving business gifts varies between countries and regions and what may be normal and acceptable in one region may not be in another. The test to be applied is whether in all the circumstances the gift or hospitality is reasonable and justifiable. The intention behind the gift should always be considered.
WHAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE?
It is not acceptable for any Worker (or someone on their behalf) to:
- give, promise to give, or offer, a payment, gift, or hospitality with the expectation or hope that they or the Company will improperly be given a business advantage, or as a reward for a business advantage already improperly given;
- give, promise to give, or offer, a payment, gift, or hospitality to a government official, agent, or representative to facilitate or expedite a routine procedure;
- accept payment from a Third Party where it is known or suspected that it is offered or given with the expectation that the Third Party will improperly obtain a business advantage;
- accept a gift or hospitality from a Third Party where it is known or suspected that it is offered or provided with an expectation that a business advantage will be improperly provided by the Company in return;
- threaten or retaliate against another Worker who has refused to commit a bribery offence or who has raised concerns under this policy; or
- engage in any activity that might lead to a breach of this policy.
FACILITATION PAYMENTS AND “KICKBACKS”
We do not make, and will not accept, facilitation payments or “kickbacks” of any kind, such as small, unofficial payments made to secure or expedite a routine government action by a government official, or payments made in return for a business favour or advantage.
CHARITABLE DONATIONS AND SPONSORSHIP
The Company only makes charitable donations and provides sponsorship that are legal and ethical under local laws and practices and which are per the Company’s internal policies and procedures.
RECORD KEEPING
We keep appropriate financial records and have appropriate internal controls in place which evidence the business reason for gifts, hospitality and payments made and received.
RESPONSIBILITIES AND RAISING CONCERNS
The prevention, detection and reporting of bribery and other forms of corruption are the responsibility of all those working for us or under our control. All Workers are required to avoid any activity that might lead to, or suggest, a breach of this policy.
Workers are required to notify the Company as soon as possible if it is believed or suspected that a conflict with this policy has occurred, or may occur in the future, or if they are offered a bribe, are asked to make one, suspect that this may happen in the future, or believe that they are a victim of another form of unlawful activity.
Any employee who breaches this policy may face disciplinary action, which could result in dismissal for gross misconduct. We reserve our right to terminate our contract with any such employees.
MONITORING AND REVIEW
The Company monitors the effectiveness and reviews the implementation of this policy at appropriate intervals, considering its suitability, adequacy, and effectiveness. Any improvements identified are made as soon as possible. Internal control systems and procedures are also subject to regular review to ensure that they are effective in countering any risks of bribery and corruption.
