Importance de la conformité
Quel que soit l’endroit dans le monde où nous travaillons,
les lois anti-corruption (Anti-Bribery, Anti-Corruption,
ABAC) s’appliquent à nos activités, y compris, mais
sans s’y limiter, la loi sur les pratiques de corruption à
l’étranger (Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, FCPA) et la loi
anti-corruption du Royaume-Uni.
La plupart des lois anti-corruption s’appliquent, qu’un
pot-de-vin soit versé directement à une entité ou
par l’intermédiaire d’un agent, consultant ou autre
intermédiaire.
Afin de minimiser ce risque, Avient doit envisager certains
facteurs avant d’entrer en collaboration avec un tiers, et
tous les tiers doivent respecter les normes suivantes :
• Réputé – il a expérience et l’expertise requises
• Crédible – les références commerciales soutiennent
les revendications d’expertise du tiers
• Financièrement stable – ressources suffisantes pour
satisfaire ses engagements
• Pratiques éthiques et juridiques – s’engage à
respecter toutes les lois applicables, notamment les
lois anti-corruption
• Responsable – signe une attestation et s’engage à
respecter la présente Politique
Alertes
En vertu des lois ABAC, Avient peut également être
tenue responsable des actions de ses agents et autres
tiers (y compris les partenaires de coentreprise).

Het aanbieden van iets van waarde mag niet
worden verward met redelijke en beperkte,
legale uitgaven voor geschenken, zakelijk
vermaak en andere legitieme activiteiten
die rechtstreeks verband houden met de
bedrijfsactiviteiten van Avient. 1
Belang van naleving
Ongeacht waar in de wereld we actief zijn, zijn wetten
inzake anti-omkoping en anti-corruptie (Anti-Bribery,
Anti-Corruption Laws, ABAC) van toepassing op ons
bedrijf, inclusief maar niet beperkt tot de Foreign Corrupt
1 Raadpleeg het gedeelte Geschenken en gastvrijheid in de Gedragscode van
Avient en ons Beleid inzake geschenken en vermaak om te bepalen of uw uitgaven
toegestaan zijn.
In dit geval zijn de meeste anti-omkopingswetten van
toepassing, ongeacht of de omkoping rechtstreeks aan
een entiteit of via een vertegenwoordiger, consulent
of andere tussenpersoon gebeurt.
Om het risico tot een minimum te beperken, moet Avient
bepaalde factoren in overweging nemen alvorens een
relatie met een derde partij aan te gaan en moeten alle
derde partijen aan de volgende normen voldoen:
• gerenommeerd - beschikt over de nodige ervaring en
expertise;
• geloofwaardig - zakelijke referenties ondersteunen
de claims van expertise van de derde partij;
• financieel stabiel - beschikt over de juiste middelen
om aan de beloftes te voldoen;
• ethische en juridische praktijken - toegewijd aan het
naleven van alle toepasselijke wetten, inclusief anti-
omkopingswetten; en
• geëngageerd - er dient te worden bevestigd dat dit
Beleid bekend is en dat het zal worden nageleefd.
