Preventing bribery and corruption

About Preventing bribery and corruption

Bribery and corruption are criminal actions that exact significant costs on organisations and individuals, and undermine the fair operation of markets and governments.

Australian organisations have a responsibility to avoid bribery and corruption, and investigate and take action if it’s discovered.

Corruption is the misuse of power for private gain. Bribery is one way corruption happens.
