ABSTRACT

Creating a culture that values and guards a company’s integrity is not something that can be done instantly and depends upon being able to coordinate employee knowledge and efficient information-gathering and analysis techniques, with decision-support systems, ethical guidelines, and strong and consistent executive support. One thing that is certain is that at the heart of any effective company-wide program is employee acceptance. This is especially true with an initiative such as this, in which the knowledge and experience of every employee becomes paramount to identifying and dealing with risks at an early stage.
