A conflict of interest occurs when you are influenced by a private interest (financial or otherwise) when carrying out your work-related duties.

PURPOSE
To state the method in which Jag’s Truck Training will comply with the RMS Code of Conduct for HVCBA and the relevant RTO standards.

PROCEDURE
Jag’s Truck Training and its assessors are expected by RMS to adhere to the same requirements of honest, ethical and fair conduct as RMS employees. It is a criminal offence to offer or accept any payment, gratuity, or present inconsideration of any act pertaining to duties as a Provider or Assessor for RMS. Penalties are severe and may include fines and imprisonment. Jag’s Truck Training and its assessors is performing a public official function and as such our actions can also be scrutinised by the Independent Commission Against Corruption.

If an Assessor or Jag’s Truck Training becomes aware of circumstances which suggest that a bribe is being indirectly offered, e.g. money is placed in a conspicuous place, an Assessor or Jag’s Truck Training should inform the Applicant that the services will be terminated unless the money is removed by the Applicant. If anything is said or done by the Applicant to indicate to the Assessor or Jag’s Truck Training that an offer of a bribe has been made, the service should be terminated and action taken according to the procedures outlined below.

Jag’s Truck Training must ensure that the each Assessor does not engage in or condone any bribery, corruption or collusion in the delivery of Assessments.

An Assessor must not engage in or condone any bribery, corruption or collusion in the delivery of Assessments.

Jag’s Truck Training or an Assessor must immediately report any evidence or suspicion of bribery, corruption or collusion to the contact details given below. In this clause references to “bribery” include requesting or accepting any benefits of any kind from or on behalf of an Applicant for Jag’s Truck Training or an Assessor (whether the benefit is for Provider or Assessor or a third person) but excludes any training or assessment fee which Provider usually charges. Jag’s Truck Training and Assessors are not to accept any gifts associated with the Assessment process, including ‘thank you’ gifts before and/or after the Assessment because it can be perceived as a Conflict of Interest. Bribery is a criminal offence and is therefore a matter for investigation by the Police. Strong action will be taken against all parties involved in such conduct. The essential action is for the Police to be notified immediately. That should be uppermost in the mind of any person involved in such situations.

Whenever an offer of a bribe is made to a representative of Jag’s Truck Training or an Assessor (or other personnel):
