Counteracting corruption
The Budimex Group takes firm actions in the area of prevention of corruption incidents. Combating corruption is one of the 10 Global Compact Principles, which form the foundation for building a responsible organisation. Budimex recognises the enormous negative effects of the materialisation of risk in this area, therefore the Group has a comprehensive anti-corruption system in place, which meets all regulatory requirements and good market practices.
In the area of anti-corruption, internal training is conducted as well as training carried out with the participation of external organisations. In 2021, approximately 20 internal training panels were held, including training under the Contract Manager Academy, Compliance Training and Welcome to the Group programmes. In the reported period, all members of the Management Board of Budimex SA underwent training covering anti-corruption topics. All employees in middle and senior management positions receive regular information on anti-corruption systems in place at the Group.
Agreements signed with business partners include provisions informing about the Budimex Group’s approach to issues related to prevention and elimination of corruption events.
No incidents of corruption were reported in 2021.
