General Regime for the Prevention of Corruption
The General Regime for the Prevention of Corruption (RGPC) – Decree-Law No. 109-E/2021 of December 9 – is fundamental in strengthening integrity and transparency across all sectors of society. Its importance is multifaceted,
encompassing various areas that are crucial for the sustainable and ethical development of organizations.
Promotes Transparency and Integrity
The RGPC establishes strict guidelines to ensure that all activities and operations are conducted ethically. By promoting transparency, this regime reduces opportunities for corrupt practices, creating an environment where integrity is the norm.
Strengthens Public Trust
Corruption erodes public trust in organizations. By implementing a strong anti-corruption framework, organizations demonstrate their commitment to ethics and legality, thereby reinforcing public confidence and that of other stakeholders.
Ensures Legal Compliance
The RGPC ensures that organizations comply with national and international anti-corruption laws and regulations. This not only helps avoid legal and financial penalties but also protects the reputation of the organizations involved.
Improves Efficiency and Competitiveness
Corruption creates significant inefficiencies and increases operational costs. By preventing corruption, the RGPC contributes to a more efficient and competitive business environment where resources are used more effectively and productively.
Fosters a Culture of Accountability
The RGPC encourages an organizational culture where accountability and responsibility are valued. This not only boosts employee morale but also promotes stronger and more responsible governance practices.
Protects Human Rights
Corruption is often linked to human rights violations. By combating corruption, the RGPC also contributes to the protection of human rights, promoting justice and equity in all operations.
Contributes to Sustainable Development
Preventing corruption is essential for sustainable development. Governments and organizations that adopt the RGPC can more effectively allocate resources to development initiatives such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure,
thereby fostering equitableand sustainable economic growth.
