Compliance, Monitoring and Reporting
Compliance with this policy will be continuously monitored and subject to review by the Board of Adcock's. Compliance will be reported on after, the annual review date.
Each line manager is expected to ensuring that the principles set out in this policy are communicated to, understood and observed by all employees and for ensuring compliance in their area of responsibility.
Employees who reasonably suspect that there has been a breach of this policy must report it to their line manager, or Michael Griffiths (the company secretary). We recognise that employees may be reluctant to report concerns for fear of retaliation and will take disciplinary action against any employee who threatens or engages in retaliation, retribution, or harassment of any person who has reported or is considering reporting a concern in good faith.
