Corruption Prevention Guide for Construction Industry (26/8/2023)
Corruption in the construction industry resulting in substandard works
would seriously threaten public safety and undermine public confidence in the
quality of works projects. Despite the
difficulty to quantify the direct cost of corruption, corruption in
construction industry will increase operating and material costs, demoralise staff
members, and damage overall business performance of the organisation concerned.
The Corruption Prevention Advisory Service (CPAS) of the ICAC has
recently uploaded to the Portal the “Corruption Prevention Guide for
Construction Industry". The Guide consolidates the three existing best practice checklists
(BPCs), namely Management of Works Consultancies, Letting and Administration of
Works Contracts; and Construction Quality Control Testing, into one Corruption
Prevention Guide. Case studies are added
to better illustrate the corruption risks in construction industry. Please click here to view
the Guide.
