Common use of Preventive Measures Clause in Contracts

Preventive Measures. Partner contracts: All partner contracts include an anti-terror clause under which partners guarantee that they are not on the UN or EU terror lists. Moreover, partners are obligated to ensure that funds, assets or resources transferred to them are not made available to, or in other ways benefit, persons on the UN or EU terror lists, e.g. in connection with local collaboration or allocation of aid. Partners are also obligated to keep up-to-date with the terror lists. Screening of projects and partnerships: The institute will carry out regular screenings of partnerships in connection with implementation of the Institute's projects, to ensure that partners are not on the UN or EU terror lists. As partnerships often involve transfers of funds, this screening is important to prevent unintentional financing of terror-related objectives. The screening is carried out once a year in connection with the annual partner audit by the project manager. Screening of employees: When hiring new employees, the HR department checks whether the person in question is on the UN or EU terror lists. Screening is carried out in connection with recruitment and before entering into an employment contract. The project manager for the relevant project will be responsible for locally recruited employees. Procurement of goods and services: In connection with the procurement of goods or services exceeding DKK 250,000, there are checks to ensure that the supplier is not on UN or EU terror lists. The institute also observes Danish and EU rules for procurement of goods and services.
