Makers has a statutory responsibility to safeguard our apprentices. We regularly review the Prevent agenda against our own policies to make sure we provide a safe environment for all of our apprentices.
This anti-bribery policy exists to set out the responsibilities of Makers and those who work for us in regards to observing and upholding our zero-tolerance position on bribery and
corruption.
Makers will ensure that diversity is valued and equality of opportunity is promoted at all times. We will promote actions that make a real difference to people both in our role as an
employer and a training provider.
We are committed to delivering a high quality apprenticeship service which incorporates feedback from our apprentices and employers. We aim to settle complaints promptly, fairly
and courteously.
Individuals should always disclose an activity if they are in doubt about whether it represents a conflict of interest. When a conflict or potential conflict is identified, it should be reported to the Centre’s Internal Quality Assurance (IQA).

Everyone in the work environment has both a legal and ethical responsibility for ensuring their workplace is safe, for themselves, their colleagues and visitors, including contractors and other service providers.
