Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy
Last updated: 19 April 2026
LogistIQ Consulting is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and ethical standards. This policy sets out a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption and provides clear guidance to prevent, detect, and address these practices in our operations and business relationships.
This policy is written to ensure compliance with the UK Bribery Act 2010 and related anti-corruption legislation. Failure to comply with this policy may result in disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. Contributors should also be aware that breaches of the Bribery Act 2010 can result in severe criminal and civil penalties.
Status of this Policy
This policy applies to all contributors, employees, officers, directors, contractors, third party intermediaries, agents, subcontractors and partners of LogistIQ Consulting, hereafter defined as "contributors".
While it does not form part of any employment contract, adherence to this policy is required as part of our dedication to ethical business practices and legal compliance.
Our Commitment
LogistIQ Consulting is:
- Prohibiting bribery and corruption in all forms, whether directly or through third parties.
- Maintaining a culture of integrity and accountability across the organisation and among partners.
- Implementing systems and controls to prevent and deter bribery and corruption.
Implementation
To achieve our anti-bribery and corruption objectives, LogistIQ Consulting will ensure that no contributor solicits any bribe, including cash, gifts, or other benefits, to gain improper advantages or engages in corrupt practices on behalf of the company.
Gifts and Hospitality
We follow clear rules for offering and receiving gifts or hospitality to avoid influencing business decisions.
Prior approval for any gifts or hospitality to be given on LogistIQ Consulting behalf is to be obtained by the Board, which needs also to be notified of any gifts or hospitality to be given to LogistIQ Consulting behalf, with the goal of maintaining transparency.
Due Diligence
Conduct thorough checks on partners, agents, and third parties to confirm they meet our anti-bribery standards and include anti-corruption clauses in contracts with suppliers and partners.
Whistleblowing
We encourage a culture where employees feel confident reporting concerns or suspected breaches without fear of retaliation and we ensure employees are protected under the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 when reporting concerns in good faith, as described in our Whistleblowing Procedure.
All contributors are responsible for preventing bribery and corruption. Any concerns or suspicions should be reported immediately to legal@logistiqconsulting.com.
Monitoring and Review
LogistIQ Consulting will regularly assess the effectiveness of this policy and make improvements where needed. The policy will be reviewed annually to ensure it remains relevant and practical.
LogistIQ Consulting reserves the right to amend this policy anytime to reflect changes in company objectives or best practices.
