Anti-Corruption Policy
Many countries, where Chimlaborreaktiv LLC conducts business, have bribery and other anti-corruption laws that are intended to prevent companies and individuals from gaining an unfair advantage and from undermining the rule of law. Breaking these laws has severe consequences and often applied no matter in which jurisdiction the breach took place.
The Ukrainian anti-corruption-related rules are fragmented and scattered around various legal acts. The most relevant include:
- the Law of Ukraine on the Prevention of Corruption of 14 October 2014, 1700-VII;
- the Criminal Code of Ukraine of 5 April 2001; and
- the Code of Administrative Offences of Ukraine of 7 December 1984.
Furthermore Ukraine is signed up to the following conventions:
- the Council of Europe Civil Law Convention on Corruption, ratified on 9 September 2005;
- the Council of Europe Criminal Law Convention on Corruption, ratified on 27 November 2009;
- the UN Convention against Corruption, ratified on 2 December 2009; and
- United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime, ratified on 4 February 2004 and the Protocols.
Chimlaborreaktiv LLC is bending every effort to comply with all abovementioned as well as to conform to international standards of bribery-free business relationships. We must never offer or accept bribes or kickbacks, and must not participate in or facilitate corrupt activities of any kind. In addition, Chimlaborreaktiv LLC strives to work with partners and contractors whose reputation is not tarnished by incidents related to corruption and bribery.
