PREAMBLE:

A Policy on Prevention of Fraud/Corruption and other

Irregularities is supportive of good corporate governance practices.

1.1

The purpose of this Policy is to set out the responsibilities of the employees and members of the public, with regard to

Anti-Fraud and Corruption as well as Fraud and Corruption

Prevention Plan and the action that will be taken by the

1.2

1.3

Waterberg FET College in the event of any contravention.

This policy is about changing organisational features that allow the events to occur and possibly go unnoticed or unreported. The strategies incorporated in the Fraud and

Corruption Prevention Plan address issues such as accountability, transparency, efficiency, effective and clean administration. Further, these strategies focus on improving systems and procedures, changing the attitudes of the staff and members of the public and improving the overall integrity and performance of or as we are attempting here, to incorporate in several such as Anti-Fraud and Anti- Corruption policy, Fraud and Prevention Plan and Code of Ethics etc.

The Anti-Fraud and Corruption Policy covers the prevention, detection and management of fraud and corruption and for fair dealing in matters pertaining to fraud and corruption. It aims

1.4

1.5

1.6

to raise the awareness of fraud and corruption and its prevention in the Waterberg FET College environment and to give guidance to both the reporting of suspected fraud and corruption and how the investigation of that report will proceed.

The Waterberg FET College has a duty to protect the public funds under its control against fraud and corruption both from within the Municipality and from external sources. This Anti-

Fraud and Corruption Policy is part of the Municipality’s commitment to sound corporate governance.

The Waterberg FET College expects all employees at all levels to lead by example in the achievement of probity and accountability by ensuring adherence to legal requirements, regulations, rules, procedures, policies and practices.

The Waterberg FET College also expects that individuals and organizations (e.g. suppliers, contractors and partners, etc) with whom it comes into contact, will act with integrity and without intent or actions to commit fraud or corruption or any other dishonest activities of a similar nature against the

Municipality.

1.9

This policy is intended to set down the stance of Waterberg

FET College to fraud and corruption as well as to reinforce existing systems, policies, procedures, rules and regulations of Waterberg FET College aimed at deterring, preventing, detecting, reacting to and reducing the impact of fraud and corruption.

The Waterberg FET College recognizes the fact that acts of fraud and corruption by its employees and external stakeholders affect the quality and quantity of service delivery because of limited resources, thus resulting in the

Waterberg FET College not meeting its objectives.

Fraud and corruption is an ever-present threat to these resources and hence must be a concern to all employees and persons employed in a similar capacity. Fraud and corruption may occur internally or externally and may be perpetrated by anybody including employees, members of the public, councillors, consultants, suppliers, contractors or development partners, individually or in collusion with others.

of good governance.

Treasury Regulation 3.2.1 states:

“The Accounting Officer must ensure that a risk assessment is conducted regularly to identify emerging risks to the

Institution. A risk management strategy, which must include a Fraud Prevention Plan, must be used to detect direct

7.3.2

internal audit effort and priority, and to determine the skills required of managers and staff to improve controls and to manage these risks. The strategy must be clearly communicated to a;; officials to ensure that the risk management strategy is incorporated into the language and the culture of the Institution”

Waterberg FET College will implement the following strategy for the prevention of fraud/corruption and other irregularities:

Detection: activities intended to uncover the existence of fraud that could not be prevented

7.3.3

7.3.4

7.3.5

7.3.6

7.3.7

Investigation: a systematic examination of facts surrounding the detected incident.

Correction: is the action of addressing the root causes of what allowed the fraud/corruption or irregularities to occur and would include control improvements, sanctions and redress.

This would be attributed to fear of being caught and punished as well as the difficulty aspect of perpetrating the fraud.

Fraud risk assessment: Management to assess the vulnerability of the College every 18-24 months. This is done by traditionally evaluating the type of risk/fraud, the likelihood of its occurrence, the potential impact of the fraud

Accountability: Management, line managers and staff should have a matrix which lists the anti-fraud functions and which staff have primary, secondary or a shared responsibility. The

Code of Conduct must be signed by all staff members where it is stated that they understood the document and will adhere hereto. This will prevent them from claiming ignorance.

Controls: After the fraud assessment Management must determine whether there are controls in place to mitigate the identified fraud risks or if additional emphasis should be placed on existing controls.
