18 King III Recommends That the boards of companies should ensure that the company s ethics performance is assessed, monitored, reported and disclosed That the assessing, reporting and disclosures of ethics performance should enable users of ethics reports to form opinions and make decisions based on disclosed and verified information
19 Companies Act 71 of 2008 ( the Act ) Social & Ethics Committees Section 72(4) read in conjunction with regulation 43 of the Act deals with the appointment of social and ethics committees (SEC) To be appointed within 12 months from 1 May 2011 (existing companies) To comprise of not less than 3 directors or prescribed officers of the company, at least one of whom must be a director who is not involved in the day-to-day management of the company s business and must not have been so involved within the previous 3 financial years
20 Practical Considerations (SEC) Who qualifies (see section 72(4) and regulation 43(1) and (2)) public interest score > 500 points Who are prescribed officers? See regulation 38 - What skills? See regulation 43(5) - Diversity? When 30 April 2012 or 12 months (see regulation 43(3) How appointed? Board or shareholders? Initially board thereafter shareholders (regulation 43(2))
21 Practical Considerations (SEC) Fees of members timing AGM approve or ratify Duties of members see regulation 43(5) - Ethics missing! - Left up to mandate and terms of reference - Chairman to report on matters within its mandate at AGM separate report in integrated report? - Altron drafted mandate and terms of reference see EthicsSA website for draft template
22 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics King III (Chapter 7) recommends that:- The key responsibility of internal audit is to the board, its committees, or both, in discharging its governance responsibilities and as a minimum to perform the following functions:- - evaluating the company s governance processes including ethics, especially the tone at the top - performing an objective assessment of the effectiveness of risk management and the internal control framework - systematically analysing and evaluating business processes and associated controls - providing a source of information, as appropriate, regarding instances of fraud, corruption, unethical behaviour and irregularities
23 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics Ethics Institute of South Africa 2. Develop or revise code of ethics & policies 1. Assess ethics risks and opportunities Build an ethical culture 3. Integrate ethical standards 4. Audit, report & disclosure
24 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics Distinction between the role of an internal auditor and an external auditor Internal assessment to evaluate the adequacy and effectiveness of an organisations ethics performance External assessment to verify and provide assurance on the quality of an organisations ethics performance Ethics Institute of South Africa
25 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics Altron adopted a 3 phase approach towards the internal and external assessment of ethics within the organisation - Phase 1 : deals with the 1 and 2 of building an ethical culture. This relates to the assessment of the ethical foundations and building blocks of the organisation, i.e. Code of Ethics, Code of Conduct, ethics awareness campaigns, whistleblowing facilities and procedures, Gifts and Entertainment Policies, etc. - Phase 1 assessed externally by Corporate Governance Accreditation and SustainabilityServices. See AA1000 AS (2008) assurance statement in 2011 Altron integrated report page 104: Altron employs adequate ethics policies, procedures and controls throughout its operations
26 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics - Phase 2 : deals with the 3 and 4 of building an ethical culture. Altron internal audit department responsible for assessing the ethical climate of the organisation and confirming the integration of ethical standards throughout the organisation - An Altron ethics questionnaire has been drafted by the Altron internal audit department with the assistance of EthicsSA to assess, monitor, report/disclose ethics performance
27 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics The questionnaire is divided into five distinct components:- 1. Altron Code of Ethics and Policies 2. Reporting Misconduct 3. The Role of Management 4. The Role of Staff 5. Ethical Culture Will be completed anonymously by employees
28 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics Each question/statement is graded (from an effectiveness perspective) from strongly agree to strongly disagree with not applicable also being an optional answer It is envisaged that questionnaire will be scored into various modes of ethics e.g.:- - Immoral - Reactive - Compliance - Integrity - Totally aligned
29 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics Once the scoring system is developed, it will be possible to measure progress in ethical improvement at operational level Questionnaires will be completed annually and results will be reported to the Altron risk management committee - Phase 3 : deals with the 4 of building an ethical culture, but purely from an external assessment perspective. This includes the external review plus assurance statement regarding the entire ethical process, systems and practices throughout the organisation
30 Role of Internal Audit - Ethics Why the use of internal audit besides King III? - Objective - Independent - Understand risk environment poor ethics is a risk to an organisation reputational damage - Chief audit executive usually an invitee on audit and risk management committees and executive committee - Review company s control environment and provides assurance to the board regarding the effectiveness of the system of internal audit controls and risk management to the company - Skilled in reporting and trusted strategic adviser
