ANNUAL REPORT 2021 69 SUSTAINABILITY The Board has reviewed the Group’s ABAC framework, policies (Whistleblowing Policy, ABAC Policy), and codes (Codes of Conduct, Code of Ethics and Code of Business Ethics) before approval was given. The full enhanced framework, policies and codes are available on our company’s website under the Investors Relations section at https://www.myeg.com.my/investor-relations/governance. Through the AC and RMC, the Board receives all relevant information on MYEG’s ABAC agenda. Anti-bribery and anti-corruption training are essential for the Group as the training allows for better understanding and enforcement of these policies. Leading from the top, we entrust our Board members to possess the necessary attributes to build and develop the company’s ability to govern whilst maintaining a high-level of integrity simultaneously. However, not only do our Board members receive ABAC training, but so do other members of staff at a non-senior decision-making level. Employees, Board members, Head of Departments (“HODs”) and senior decision-level decision makers have all been exposed to various anti-corruption refresher courses and other training programmes throughout the year to allow them to continue performing their fiduciary and statutory duties. In FY2021, we conducted the yearly ABAC refresher course on the online sphere (virtually), supported by digital communication platforms, as most team members were working from home. Thus not only was the course content and teachings limited through a virtual conduct, a limitation also emerged where team members who did not have internet / data connection were unable to fully participate in the course. However, we remained determined to ensure as many employees as possible underwent the yearly refresher course, which is detailed below: Training Agenda Training Objective Training Outcome r 0WFSWJFX PG UIF "#"$ Framework II r "#"$ 1PMJDZ r (PWFSOBODF TUSVDUVSF BOE corruption risk management r .BOBHJOH USBOTBDUJPOT r :PVS CVTJOFTT FUIJDT BT .:&( employees) r :PVS SFTQPOTJCJMJUZ JO NBOBHJOH MYEG’s external parties r 0UIFS FOGPSDFNFOU BOE monitoring efforts r (FUUJOH IFMQ r .BLJOH B SFQPSU r %FQMPZ WBSJPVT DPNNVOJDBUJPO tools and methods to raise awareness on the ABAC Policy and the Group’s anti-bribery and anti-corruption stance amongst its stakeholders. r $SFBUF BO BXBSFOFTT JO UIF organisation on the importance of employees in preventing bribery and corruption. r 5FBN NFNCFST BSF DPNQMJBOU with ABAC Laws r $SFBUF B DVMUVSF PG JOUFHSJUZ within MYEG r 3FHVMBS USBJOJOH XJMM QSPWJEF staff with a thorough understanding of the policies and legal requirements necessary for an ethical workplace and highlight the importance of their role in preventing bribery and corruption. We target to conduct physical training sessions on ABAC Policy and awareness in the Group in FY2022. All our staff are required to sign a Code of Conduct Acknowledgement and Declaration form. Anyone who is found breaching the codes will be reprimanded accordingly. Throughout FY2021, more ABAC Policy trainings have been carried out especially for new employees joining the Group. This training will be included in the induction programme and orientation as it ensures all our staff, whether new or old are familiar with our ABAC Policy. Anti-corruption courses will be continuously provided throughout the year. MYEG takes its ABAC Policy very seriously which is why these measures are taken to improve the Groups initiative when it comes to this topic. In order to spread awareness about our policies, various mediums are used such as social media, our Employee-Self-Service (“ESS”) portal, employee handbooks and manuals, meetings, e-mails, HOD reminders as well as many more. More on the company’s anti-corruption policies can be found on the company’s website. SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE (CONT’D)
