What is ISO 37001 Anti-Bribery Management?
ISO 37001 is a globally recognised standard that provides guidelines for establishing and maintaining an effective anti-bribery management system. By creating and implementing a robust anti-bribery management system, businesses and organisations can enjoy both operational benefits and potentially even a competitive edge in certain markets.
The ISO 37001 anti-bribery management standard is not locked to a specified industry, and as such, it is adaptable for businesses and organisations of any size and type of sector. Whilst this standard isn’t obligatory, achieving and maintaining it sends a clear and undeniable message to stakeholders, clients, and local authorities about your commitment towards anti-bribery measures.
What is included in ISO 37001?
Anti-Bribery Policy
An anti-bribery policy is an official statement and public declaration on behalf of the company or organisation which underlines its dedication to combating bribery. Through a comprehensive and well-thought-out anti-bribery policy, you provide a foundation for addressing future issues and mitigating potential risks without confusion.
Risk Assessment
Like any form of risk that has the potential to impact your organisation, no anti-bribery policy is complete without a comprehensive risk assessment. This assessment should be tailored towards your organisation’s operations and associations with third parties, either corporate, political or individual. Bribery risks can present themselves in various forms; as such, a risk assessment is vital to design appropriate control measures and ensure that all responses are effective and proportionate.
Controls & Procedures
To achieve ISO 37001 compliance, organisations must implement practical procedures to prevent, detect, and address bribery.
Training & Communication
Creating and implementing policies is only part of the journey towards ISO 37001 certification. Training is an essential component of accreditation; after all, employees must be well informed and educated regarding the measures, so in the event of a potential bribery risk, they are aware of the appropriate response and can raise the alarm accordingly.
Regular Reviews
No plan is perfect, and there is always room for improvement, especially as time progresses and threats evolve. Regular reviews and improvement meetings are essential to ensure that your anti-bribery management system remains effective.
In short, ISO 37001 provides a framework for companies and organisations to demonstrate their commitment to combating bribery, an essential business component in today’s global and interconnected world.
FAQ
How long does it take to get certified?
To become certified, businesses and organisations must be audited by an accredited certification body. Whilst it varies greatly from company to company, largely depending on your unique circumstances, most companies and organisations can expect the certification process to take several months, depending on the magnitude of changes required to comply with the standard.
What is the ISO?
ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) is an independent, non-governmental international organisation with a membership of 169 national standards bodies. One of the advantages of ISO accreditation is that many ISO standards easily integrate with other ISO accreditations, allowing organisations to display their strengths in an easy-to-comprehend manner.
