Payments offered to facilitate passage through customs, or to obtain quicker service from a government official, are considered facilitation payments.
Facilitation Payments. 6.1 CybSafe does not make, and will not accept, facilitation payments or ‘kickbacks’ of any kind. Facilitation payments are typically small, unoffcial payments made to secure or expedite a routine action by a regulator or other government offcial. They are not commonly paid in the UK, but can be common in some other jurisdictions. For example, the Middle East is an area with its own laws, cultures, and business customs. In turn, these laws, as expected of developing legal jurisdictions, are typically prescriptive in nature but lack the precision in wording desired by UK corporate compliance and legal departments. No distinction is ever made between bribery and facilitation or “grease” payments.
6.2 If you are asked to make a payment on CybSafe’s behalf, you should always be mindful of what the payment is for and whether the amount requested is proportionate to the goods or services provided. You should always ask for a receipt which details the reason for the payment. If you have any suspicions, concerns or queries regarding a payment, you should raise these with your manager or the Bribery and Corruption Representative.
6.3 Kickbacks or “grease payments “are typically payments made in return for a business favour or advantage. All employees and associates must avoid any activity that might lead to, or suggest, that a facilitation payment or kickback will be made or accepted by us.
