Slovenian Companies Must Ensure Compliance Training for Employees Amidst Growing Regulatory Landscape

===========================================================

In an effort to maintain transparency and integrity in their business practices, companies operating in Slovenia are now required to provide annual mandatory training for all employees. This comprehensive training program is designed to educate staff on the company’s code of conduct and values, as well as encourage them to apply these principles in their daily work.

Mandatory Annual Training

The annual mandatory training includes a comprehensive eLearning training module that covers:

  • Company code of conduct and values
  • Principles for applying these values in daily work
  • A quiz at the conclusion to ensure thorough understanding of the company’s code of integrity
  • Certification upon successful completion

Records of all participating employees are maintained by the company to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

New Employee Induction Program

In addition to the annual mandatory training, new employees worldwide must complete an interactive eLearning program as part of their induction process. This comprehensive module provides new staff members with:

  • A solid understanding of the company’s values and principles
  • Practical guidance on how to apply them in daily work
  • Availability in multiple languages to cater to diverse employee populations

Code of Integrity and Reporting Violations

The code of integrity is at the heart of every SGS service worldwide, and it is crucial that all employees understand its importance and implications. If an employee suspects a violation of the company’s code, they can report it anonymously through various channels, including:

  • Integrity Helpline
  • Online reporting portal
  • Fax
  • Email
  • Post

Commitment to Ethics and Integrity

By providing regular compliance training to their employees, companies operating in Slovenia are demonstrating their commitment to upholding the highest standards of ethics and integrity in all aspects of their business.

This emphasis on transparency and accountability is essential for building trust with customers, stakeholders, and the wider community. By ensuring that all employees understand the company’s code of conduct and values, companies can maintain a strong reputation and avoid potential reputational damage.
