The i6 Group is committed to conducting its business around the world with the highest degree of integrity.
This commitment includes a zero tolerance approach towards all forms of bribery and corruption. With this in mind the group have established a formal compliance programme designed to minimise the risk of bribery and corruption occurring within our group of businesses. This programme includes a comprehensive Anti-Bribery and Corruption Code of Conduct, which has been formally approved by the i6 Group Board of Directors.
Our Code of Conduct extends to all businesses which are part of the i6 Group and wherever the i6 Group or its subsidiaries, associates, partners and/or agents operate. The i6 Group requires that all directors, officers, employees, joint venture partners, agents, advisors and suppliers comply with this Code of Conduct. Any i6 Group Director, officer or employee who is found to have breached this Code of Conduct will be liable to disciplinary action, which may result in dismissal or other sanctions. Breaches of this Code of Conduct by our suppliers, partners, agents or other third party contractors and advisors may result in immediate termination of all contracts with the i6 Group.
Engaging in bribery and corruption whether at home or abroad may constitute a criminal offence, which could expose both the i6 Group and the individuals involved to serious criminal sanctions, including the risk of imprisonment. Everyone working within the i6 Group of Companies has a responsibility to ensure that our businesses are conducted in an ethical manner. The i6 Group expects and relies upon all of the individuals and companies with which it has dealings to play their part in ensuring that this objective is achieved.
The i6 Group understands the importance of export compliance and takes its responsibilities seriously. The success of this company depends on the large portion of business we do overseas and we are fully aware of the commercial impact of export controls.
Export control regulations are enforced in countries throughout the world to support national security policies and prevent the illegitimate development of Weapons of Mass Destruction and related terrorist activities. Over the past few years the political and economic climate has sharpened the focus on export controls and as a consequence regulations are tightening and enforcement is increasing.
We have therefore undertaken a strong stance within our business to understand the controls and ensure they are complied with fully.
i6 Systems Ltd will:
- screen all our new and existing customers and suppliers to ensure that we do not do business with prohibited entities
- obtain all the necessary licenses and other government approvals prior to exporting control listed products and technology
- maintain an up-to-date knowledge of export control legislation and changes to it.
The purpose of these controls is to limit the supply of the technology or strategic goods to countries proscribed, principally for reasons of proliferation, security, or terrorism. If you are a recipient of i6 Systems Ltd goods (including hardware and/software and/or technology as well as all corresponding documents) we shall expect compliance with all applicable national and international export control regulations.
For our business it is essential that we comply with the legislation; failure to do so would bring serious penalties for the company and for the individuals concerned. It is in all our interests that the controls are effective to ensure we make the world a safer place.
i6 Group is committed to protecting employees, business partners and suppliers from illegal or damaging actions by individuals, either knowingly, or unknowingly.
When i6 Group addresses issues proactively and uses correct judgement, it will help to set the company apart from its competitors and help further enhance its reputation. i6 Group will not tolerate any wrongdoing or impropriety at any time. The company will take the appropriate measures and act quickly where the ‘ethical code’ is broken.
This policy applies to all employees, contractors, consultants and part time employees of i6 Group and its subsidiary companies.
