Gifts, benefits and hospitality policy

EPA requires its staff to act with integrity and is committed to the detection and investigation of any situations which may be regarded as demonstrating behaviours which do not meet ethical standards. The purpose of this policy is to guide the conduct of EPA staff, and external parties associated with EPA, to avoid confusion regarding the provision and receipt of gifts, benefits and hospitality; and enable appropriate management of such situations. EPA keeps a register of gift, benefit, and hospitality offers which is published on our policies page.
