Normative Compliance Program

Efacec has implemented a Regulatory Compliance Program aligned with the General Regime for the Prevention of Corruption, integrating a set of principles, policies, and instruments aimed at preventing, detecting, and mitigating risks, namely those associated with corruption and related offenses.

The Efacec Regulatory Compliance Program is based, among others, on the following key pillars:

  • Code of Conduct, which establishes the principles and rules of conduct for employees;
  • Internal compliance policies, namely in the areas of anti-corruption, conflicts of interest, gifts and hospitality, and relationships with third parties;
  • Corruption and Related Offenses Risk Prevention Plan (PPR), which identifies and mitigates risks associated with the activity;
  • Whistleblowing channel (Ethics Line), which allows the secure and confidential reporting of irregularities;
  • Training program, aimed at raising awareness and training employees to adopt compliant and responsible behavior.

Through this Program, Efacec ensures compliance with the legal, regulatory, and internal rules applicable to its activity, promoting a culture of ethics, integrity, and transparency throughout the organization.

In this way, Efacec conducts its activity according to the highest ethical standards, strengthening the trust of its clients, partners, and other stakeholders, and contributing to the sustainable development of its business.
