Integrity and financial controls

The Organization adopts a zero-tolerance approach to corruption, bribery, fraud, embezzlement, abuse of authority, document falsification, unlawful favoritism, discrimination and misuse of organizational assets.

Financial management is designed, as far as practicable, to separate expenditure request, authorization, payment, accounting and bank reconciliation functions.
