Purpose / Operation Process
Purpose
Preventive measures against unethical behavior
- - The executives and employees who receive solicitations will have justification to refuse solicitation on the grounds of the report, and
- - There will be a preventive effect on people making solicitations in the future due to the concern for having a record of such solicitations.
Practicing a spirit of informing/reporting
- - Creates an atmosphere of sincerity and transparency by having Company executives and employees conscientiously report solicitations they have received.
- - The fact that they have reported the solicitation is deemed voluntary and the person reporting is exempt from liability for problems and responsibilities to protect good employees.
