- Description: In the early 1990’s when internal fraud, theft and dishonesty became an issue of major concern, SASBO members decided to state their position on all forms of employee dishonesty. They expressed the view that criminals should be rooted out of the finance sector, because, inter alia: People of low integrity have no place in finance. Criminals also defraud their colleagues. Reduced profits through fraud would mean lower pay increases. Criminals pollute the working environment and their actions cast suspicion on everyone around them. When crimes take place, innocent employees are accused of not exercising sufficient vigilance and are subject to disciplinary actions, including dismissal. The SASBO National Council, therefore, instructed their Union not to protect guilty personnel. Yet they believed that accused members should receive a fair hearing. As a Union representing the interests of employees in a highly vulnerable workplace such as that found in the finance sector, SASBO, then, had a duty to condemn staff defalcation and fraud in the strongest terms, and to play whatever role that was necessary in ensuring that offenders were removed from the system. The need for SASBO to have a documented policy on the handling of cases involving theft, fraud and dishonesty, when its members were accused of being involved, was obvious. Applying the above principles, and aided by its legal advisors, SASBO’s National Council, in September 1993, adopted the following policy on dishonesty:
