Anti-Corruption E-Session #13: Internal Structures and Dealing with Red Flags

Date of the event

Wednesday February 27, 2019 | 12 PM - 1PM EST

Learn how to initiate or improve your company’s internal systems to deal with allegations and red flags of misconduct.

Identifying employee misconduct before it leads to a culture of “skirting the rules” is critical for the good reputation of any business. Employees and management need to have robust systems in place to deal with allegations of misconduct. This e-session will help you design an internal investigative framework that promotes transparency and is appropriate for your company.

During this e-session, you will learn to:

  • Appreciate the various ways in which corrupt behaviour may exhibit itself
  • Discuss the various remedies available to organizations faced with difficult situations
  • Identify clues that would raise red flags and require enhanced diligence
  • Understand and explain what types of allegations should be reported, and to whom
  • Identify the right person in your company to lead an internal investigation
