Home > Compliance Training > Anti Bribery – Interacting with Public Officials
This microlearning course on Interacting with Public Officials is part of our Anti-Bribery and Corruption curriculum. Delivered in an engaging, gamified format, the course enables learners to gain an understanding of bribery of public officials and how to maintain ethics and integrity of your business while travelling for work. The course particularly focuses on hidden admin fees, facilitation payments, indirect payments or trading favours in exchange for favourable treatment which can all be seen as bribes.
Learners will go behind the scenes at a fictitious firm, Soma Group. Learners take charge of an International Sales employee within the company who is about to go on their first solo trip to represent the company. Along the way, learners will understand various scenarios involving public officials and how to avoid the pitfalls of bribery and corruption.
A key area within anti-bribery and corruption regulation is the risk associated with offering bribes to public officials. There are a number of ethical and legal issues around offering a bribe to public officials. Hidden admin fees, indirect payments and facilitation payments are all considered as bribes however some employees may not have prior knowledge of this. Adhering to good practice at all times as well as having a robust anti-bribery and corruption policy can help businesses maintain integrity and compliance.
Learners are tested on their knowledge of bribery and corruption against a number of scenarios involving public officials. The challenge is to report back to the manager Erina having avoided bribing public officials on the trip. Learners must take the right decisions to arrive at the main outcome of the challenge. Learners can also take the assessment again to improve the outcome.

Included Features
A foreign public official works on behalf of a foreign government and has access to vital information. Under various anti-bribery and corruption regulations, the bribery of a foreign public official is considered a serious crime. If a foreign public official is bribed, there could be severe repercussions for individuals and businesses in the form of imprisonment and fines.
An organisation can be held responsible for any bribery offence or corruption which occurs within their organisation and if there is proof of lack of adequate measures in place. In July 2018, Australian Consulting firm Sinclair Knight Merz (SKM) were found guilty of bribing Vietnamese public officials in order to secure work on aid projects from 2006-2011.
A facilitation payment can be considered as a bribe when made to a foreign public or government official with the intention to persuade them to expedite an administrative process to benefit the bribing party. While a facilitation payment is considered a bribe under the UK Bribery Act 2010, Australia and America do not consider facilitation payments to be corrupt in nature.
