Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption

FleetFixer Ltd takes a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption. We are committed to acting fairly, honestly, and with integrity in every business relationship, and to complying with the UK Bribery Act 2010 and other applicable anti-corruption laws.

This statement applies to everyone who works for us or on our behalf: our directors and staff, contractors and consultants, and any agents or other people acting for the company. We expect the same standards from the partners and suppliers we work with.

A bribe is a financial or other advantage offered, promised, or given to encourage someone to perform their role improperly, or to reward them for doing so. We do not permit any of the following, whether done directly or through a third party:

• Offering, promising, or giving a bribe to any person, including a public official.
• Requesting, agreeing to receive, or accepting a bribe from anyone.
• Making facilitation payments: small unofficial payments to speed up a routine action that someone is already obliged to carry out.
• Using charitable or political donations as a way to disguise improper payments.

These rules apply regardless of local custom or the practice of other businesses. If you are unsure whether something is acceptable, ask before you act.

Reasonable and proportionate gifts and hospitality given or received in good faith are a normal part of doing business. They are only acceptable where they are:

• Modest in value and not lavish or excessive in the circumstances.
• Transparent, so that they could be disclosed openly without embarrassment.
• Given or received openly, not in secret, and not as cash or a cash equivalent.
• Never intended, and never likely to appear, to influence a business decision.

If a gift or hospitality offer could create a sense of obligation, or could reasonably be seen as an attempt to influence a decision, it should be politely declined and reported.

Bribery can happen through the people who act for us as much as through our own staff. Before we engage partners, suppliers, or other intermediaries, we assess them for corruption risk in a way that is proportionate to the work involved and the markets concerned.

Where appropriate, we set out our expectations in writing and reserve the right to end a relationship if a third party does not meet the standards in this statement. We keep records of the checks we carry out.

If you suspect that bribery or corruption has taken place, or is being considered, please tell us as soon as you can. You can raise a concern confidentially by emailing hello@fleetfixer.io, and we will look into it promptly and discreetly.

This is a voluntary statement appropriate to the current size of FleetFixer Ltd. It is not a formal whistleblowing scheme, and it does not affect any statutory rights you may have to report wrongdoing.
