ISO 37001:2016 Anti-bribery Management System (ABMS) standard
Overview
Bribery is a significant economic risk in many nations and industries. In the past, bribery was often regarded as an “essential” part of conducting business. However, with increasing awareness of the harm bribery inflicts on nations, organizations, and individuals, there is growing demand for effective measures to prevent it. At both international and national levels, efforts such as international treaties, updated laws, and penalties for non-compliance are being implemented to combat bribery. Despite these measures, management remains primarily responsible for bribery prevention. Effective management in both government and private sectors can play a crucial role in significantly reducing bribery.
ISO 37001 provides a systematic approach to address bribery risks. The standard requires organizations to adopt appropriate anti-bribery measures, tailored to their size, structure, and risk levels. ISO 37001 certification is applicable to small, medium, and large enterprises across public, private, and non-profit sectors.
Who is Eligible for ISO 37001?
Any organization, regardless of size or type, including public or private enterprises and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), can obtain ISO 37001 certification. The standard is highly flexible and can be easily customized to suit the specific needs of an organization.
