Purpose and Principles
Eton Executive Coaching Ltd is committed to operating with integrity, transparency and fairness. We uphold a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption, recognising that ethical conduct is foundational to trust-based coaching relationships and professional credibility.
This policy outlines our responsibilities under the Bribery Act 2010, which applies across both public and private sectors. It also provides guidance for associates, clients and partners on how to identify and respond to bribery-related risks.
Definition of Bribery
Bribery is defined as offering, promising, giving, requesting or accepting an inducement or reward to gain commercial, contractual, regulatory or personal advantage. This includes:
Active bribery: offering or giving a bribe
Passive bribery: requesting or accepting a bribe
Bribery of foreign public officials: seeking business advantage through improper influence
Conviction under the Bribery Act may result in up to 10 years’ imprisonment and unlimited fines.
Prohibited Conduct
All associates and representatives of Eton Executive Coaching Ltd must refrain from:
Offering, promising or giving bribes
Requesting, agreeing to receive or accepting bribes
Making facilitation payments (small unofficial payments to expedite routine actions)
Offering or accepting gifts, hospitality or donations that could compromise impartiality or influence decisions
Due Diligence and Ethical Partnerships
We conduct proportionate due diligence on clients, suppliers and collaborators to ensure alignment with anti-bribery principles. We seek to work only with those who demonstrate ethical intent and lawful conduct.
Record-Keeping and Transparency
All financial transactions must be accurately recorded. Misrepresentation, falsification or concealment of records related to bribery or corruption is strictly prohibited.
Reporting and Psychological Safety
We encourage associates and clients to report any concerns or suspected breaches. Reports will be treated confidentially and without retaliation. We aim to create a psychologically safe environment where ethical concerns can be raised and addressed constructively.
Monitoring and Review
We regularly review our practices and policies to ensure compliance and relevance. Breaches will be investigated promptly and may result in disciplinary action, including termination of contracts or legal referral.
