7. The GoodCorporation Standard

8. The GoodCorporation Standard • The GoodCorporation Standard is a standard of responsible business practice, developed in conjunction with the UK Institute of Business Ethics • It covers an organisation’s management of its employees, customers, suppliers, shareholders, its environmental impacts and relationship with the communities in which it operates • GoodCorporation gives an independent assessment and accreditation of an organisation against the Standard • Company or sector-specific management practices can be added to the GoodCorporation Standard for inclusion in the assessment process • All GoodCorporation reports are reviewed and approved by its independent Accreditation Council, chaired by Simon Webley, Research Director at the Institute of Business Ethics

9. How does GoodCorporation Assess? • Set-up • an assessment framework and the scope of work are agreed • a timetable is developed with the client project manager • samples of employees, customers, etc. are selected for the interview programme • Assessment • the assessor interviews key functional managers from HR, HSE, sales etc. to understand how practices are supposed to work, • the assessor reviews records, documents and system outputs as necessary • the samples of stakeholders are interviewed: face-to-face, by phone or by e-poll • Analysis and reporting • the assessor uses all the evidence gathered to evaluate how effectively the practices are working in reality, grading each practice • a presentation is given to management to explain the findings and grades • metrics are developed • report drafted, reviewed and finalised • Accreditation • For organisations seeking accreditation the report is sent to the Accreditation Council for approval

10. Assessment Metrics: Overall Results versus Benchmark

11. Assessment Metrics:Stakeholder Group versus Benchmark

12. The Use of GoodCorporation’s Assessment for Non Financial Reporting The company can report: • That it has a process in place to systematically assess its relationships with it key stakeholders: “We have a process to systematically and independently assess our stakeholder views about our business. We do this using the GoodCorporation assessment process.” • If required, it can use the assessment grades to show its performance for a particular stakeholder group or show results of an e-poll • An overall percentage can be given for each stakeholder group, based on a score of 1 for a fail grade and 5 for a commendation grade • Where applicable, the company can report that it has achieved GoodCorporation Membership (no fail grade in the assessment) The assessor awards grades: commendation the policy and system are examples of best practice merit the policy and system work well observation there is a policy and system that works but potential improvements have been identified minor non-compliance there is a policy and system that work but it is not always working fail there is no policy or system, or it has largely broken down

13. Accreditation • A grade is awarded for each of the business practices assessed • Accreditation is achieved by obtaining no ‘fail’ grade anywhere in the assessment • The ‘accredited’ logo for the year in question (e.g. ‘accredited 2013’) may be used indefinitely • Re-accreditation can be achieved in subsequent years as required • Good performance allows the organisation to be re-accredited in subsequent years, subject to a successful ‘surveillance’ visit (short audit of management processes only)

14. 3. The GoodCorporation Framework on Bribery and Corruption

15. The GoodCorporationFramework on Bribery and Corruption • The Anti-Bribery and Corruption (ABC) Framework is based on emerging international best practice • It includes input from the OECD, Transparency International’s checklist, Ministry of Justice Guidance on the UK Bribery Act and the Basel Institute on Governance • It covers an organisation’s policies and systems to reduce the risk of the company or its employees being involved in corrupt practices • It can be used both at headquarters and at site level • It addresses corruption risks broadly, covering not just bribes but: conflicts of interest, transparent purchasing, ethical risks in sales and marketing, relationships with the public sector, as well as management structure and processes • The Framework is very adaptable: company, sector-specific or individual scheme requirements can be added to the GoodCorporation ABC Framework for inclusion in the programme and/or assessment process • It aligns with BS10500

16. The GoodCorporation Framework on Bribery and Corruption • The Framework aims to ensure adequate procedures, in the sense of the UK Bribery Act, are followed, and principles are grouped under the six Ministry of Justice Guidance headings: • Top-level commitment • Communication and training • Risk assessment • Due diligence • Key business functions • Compliance and monitoring • GoodCorporation has been conducting anti-bribery and corruption work across a variety of industries including: telecommunications, oil and gas, defence, logistics and extractives • This information is used to benchmark organisations within and/or across sectors
