Let's go !
Question 1/6
It's the end of the year and a service provider offers you a case of champagne. What do you do?
Accept it and
take the bottles home to drink with your family
Accept it and give it to your manager to enjoy at the department’s Christmas lunch
Refuse the gift
Question 2/6
A supplier you work with invites you to spend a weekend at a luxury hotel to celebrate its 20th anniversary. What do you do?
Accept without hesitation!
Decline the invitation
Ask them for more details about
the event before responding
Question 3/6
Someone close to your family is a supplier to the company. He wants to renegotiate the terms of his contract with you.
What do you do?
You accept, especially since the fact that you know each other well will faciltate the discussions
You prefer to ask one of your colleagues to take care of it without mentioning your close relationship
You refuse, given your close relationship, and you inform your manager.
Question 4/6
You find out from a reliable source that your colleague has asked a service provider to pay her a commission to maintain their partnership.
What do you do?
Talk to your
colleague in the hope of recovering part of this commission
Inform your manager, HR or compliance officer
Turn a blind eye because you don't want to hurt your colleague
Question 5/6
One of the external business introducers presents you with an abnormally high invoice, which he justifies by the fact that he has incurred pre-sales expenses to get a prospect to sign an important contract (restaurant invitation, gifts, etc.) What do you do?
Refuse to sign the invoice because the amount is so high.
Sign while making sure you are not involved in any negotiations with the prospect.
Ask him to get in touch with the compliance director to examine the risks involved (probity investigation)
Question 6/6
Breakfast is offered to you during a meeting with one of the service providers you work with. What do you do?
Enjoy the breakfast
while discussing business during the meeting
To be on the safe side, you only drink one cup of coffee
Refuse because itʼs tantamount to bribery
Correct!
You refuse the gift as its value exceeds the €50 authorised by the company. (Other currencies 👉 pay attention to equivalents in your local currency)
Next
Correct !
You must first assess the level of risk by gathering more details:
- Is this a business trip (programme)?
- Are you currently negotiating a tender with this supplier?
- Is this type of invitation common or not?
- ...
Don’t hesitate to inform your manager or compliance officer.
Next
Correct !
In this case, you withdraw from the decision-making process and inform your manager of the reasons why, to avoid any conflict of interest.
Next
Correct !
You must absolutely inform your manager, HR, or the compliance officer.
To do so, you can use the whistleblowing procedure (see code of conduct on Happeo). This type of behaviour exposes the company to significant legal risks.
Next
Correct !
Receiving an invoice for a large amount does not necessarily mean the business introducer is committing acts of corruption; the situation needs to be studied to determine whether these actions are punishable or not.
Next
Well done!
You've just looked at several examples of situations.
Correct !
This case is more a gesture of conviviality. A gesture or invitation must not always be considered as an attempt at corruption. But if the customer invites you to a Michelin-starred restaurant, then that’s a different story!
