Description


Anti-Corruption '101' Workshop: Key Regulatory Requirements & Compliance Programs


The Global Compact Network Australia invites you to an anti-corruption "101" workshop.

The workshop will provide an overview of key Australian and international laws related to corruption and bribery, and enforcement approaches being pursued by law enforcement authorities domestically and internationally.

Through peer learning from leading Australian businesses, the workshop will explore the elements of effective anti-corruption policies and compliance programs (such as risk assessment, scope, engagement with third parties, embedding policies and compliance programs, monitoring and reporting) and how companies can develop these to manage risks and meet stakeholder expectations.

Join us as we speak with leading anti-corruption and law representatives from business, including Tim Robinson, Managing Counsel - Anti-Corruption & Trade, BHP Billiton, Nigel Incoll, Manager Anti-Fraud, Anti-Bribery and Corruption, NAB and Peter Haig, Partner, Allens. The panel discussion will take place in Melbourne and be via videoconference to Sydney, Perth and Brisbane.

It is an appropriate session to attend for a refresher and update, or for an introduction to core principles.

Who should attend?

Addressing corruption requires an integrated whole-of-business approach, and businesses are encouraged to send representatives from risk and compliance, sustainability and corporate responsibility, government and external affairs, legal and management.

Note: The panel discussion will take place in Melbourne and be via videoconference to Sydney, Perth and Brisbane

Organised by

As a special initiative of the UN Secretary-General, the United Nations Global Compact is a call to companies everywhere to align their operations and strategies with ten universal principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. Launched in 2000, the mandate of the UN Global Compact is to guide and support the global business community in advancing UN goals and values through responsible corporate practices. With more than 11,000 companies and 3,000 non-business signatories based in over 160 countries, and more than 60 Local Networks, it is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world.

Locally, the Global Compact Network Australia (GCNA) brings together signatories to the UN Global Compact, including more than 30 ASX 100 companies and other major corporates, non-profits and universities, to advance the private sector’s contribution to sustainable development through the universal framework provided by the UN-mandated Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Ten Principles. We lead, enable and connect business and stakeholders to create a sustainable future by supporting businesses to act responsibly and helping them find opportunities to drive positive business outcomes.
