Re 5) you must be careful with the gifts as that may be misconstrued as bribery or a kickback. A card should be fine, but a bottle of Champagne rather won't be.

- Natsu 4y agoOne of our salesmen seems to like giving out small bags of nice chocolates.
- chubbnix 4y agoAre you in the public sector is this a common issue in your industry? I ask because gifts and emoluments are common in my industry (manufacturing) with contracted clients in the private sector.
- toqy 4y agoThey make a big deal about it in pharma in trainings and whatnot, but then they don't really seem to enforce it. Adobe providing catered box seats to a big game? No problem. Random director spending too much on an internal team dinner, problem. It's pretty strange.
- piva00 4y agoI'm in the private sector and I'm in no way allowed to accept gifts worth more than 10-15€ and even those are under strict premises to not allow it to be misconstrued as a bribe. Not even working in any industry that is usually under scrutiny for bribes (finance, defence, pharma, etc.).
- WirelessGigabit 4y agoYou sure this is about bribes and not about taxes?
- Arrath 4y agoYeah this is a great cautionary point. A goodly chunk of my annual training is about bribes/inappropriate gifts.
