ISO 37001

Bribery within organizations is one of the most damaging phenomena, which can undermine the integrity of a business. Most countries around the world have national anti-bribery laws and regulations, and the implementation of ISO 37001 demonstrates business compliance with the law. ISO 37001 is applied by and to organizations in the public and private sectors and NGOs, regardless of their type, size and activity. A company that complies with the requirements of the standard can obtain an ISO 37001 Anti-Bribery Management System Certificate after a successful assessment by the independent Certification Body AXIA CERT. The Anti-Bribery Management System can be integrated with other management systems of the organization, such as ISO 9001, ISO 22301 etc.

The Anti-Bribery Management System is an internationally recognized standard that provides guidance for establishing, implementing and maintaining a credible anti-bribery management system within an organization's operations. The adoption of an anti-bribery policy allows businesses to address corrupt practices and delegate responsibilities to trained staff with expertise with the aim of eliminating the phenomenon. Some key elements of the standard include personnel training on the anti-bribery policy, implementing controls on the organization’s personnel to ensure that the anti-bribery policy is adopted, and implementing appropriate measures to control financial or commercial transactions and supplies (gifts, donations, etc.) to reduce the risk of bribery.
