Storm Operative Security Ltd.
(The
Company) is committed to ethical business behaviour in every aspect of the
management and operation of our business and at all times without exception.
As part of this commitment, the company will not tolerate any
action or omission by any employee or any other person or organization acting on
the company’s behalf, that could, by any reasonable interpretation by anyone, be
considered unethical or fraudulent or that could be viewed as malpractice,
either commercially or morally.
Our
Operations Director, Andrew
Miller is ultimately
responsible for fulfilling this commitment. The Company is also supported by a
competent, external advisor who provides advice, guidance and hands-on
assistance with management issues including health, safety, welfare,
environmental, quality and employment management issues. This external advisor
takes account of the statutory i.e. legal and the voluntary regulatory
requirements that may be applicable to our business, in the advice, support and
documentation he provides and that we produce ourselves.
We will take appropriate steps to
ensure that our statutory duties are met at all times e.g. in particular (but
not exclusively) with regard to the UK Acts, UK Regulations and relevant EC
Directives relating to employment, health, safety and welfare, environmental and
accountancy practices.
We consider that this commitment
also encompasses our responsibility for protecting other persons and
organizations with whom we are associated, from any harm that could result from
any breach in this policy.
It is the duty of our Operations Director and management to ensure that adequate resources are
made available to ensure our statutory obligations are continuously fulfilled
and that all management and administration practices, processes, procedures,
systems and documentation are designed to remove or minimise the temptation to
take ‘short-cuts’ or to engage in other acts e.g. offering or accepting or
soliciting bribery or other corrupt practices that could in any way reflect
badly upon our business and our customers.
Each employee and person otherwise engaged by our company
will be given such information, instruction and training as is necessary to
enable their full understanding of and compliance with this policy.
Adequate facilities and arrangements will be
maintained within our employment practices to encourage ‘whistle-blowing’ i.e.
to encourage employees or their representatives to raise issues such as
suspected or identified breaches of this policy.
Competent people, including, where
appropriate, specialists from outside the organisation, will be appointed to
assist us in meeting our statutory duties and those obligations that we have
voluntarily adopted, such as this and other company policies,
The successful implementation of
this policy requires total commitment from and co-operation from and between all
levels of employee and otherwise contracted person working for our company.
Each individual has a legal obligation to act within relevant UK and European
law and as such to act responsibly for his / her won sake and for the sake of
his / her colleagues and for the sake of people outside the company with whom we
interact.
This policy
will be regularly monitored to ensure that the objectives are achieved and it
will be reviewed and, if necessary, revised in the light of legislative or
organisational changes
