WSRC Procurement Department Ethics

Washington Savannah River Company (WSRC) take its responsibility seriously to maintain a fair, honest, and effective procurement system. In order to do this, the bywords are to "guard the integrity" of the system and the personnel involved. To that end WSRC and Washington Corporation have published a policy stating that its employees and their immediate families may neither seek nor accept gifts or gratuities from Suppliers.

Throughout the year and particularly at the Holiday Seasons, you are reminded that it is inappropriate for you or your company to offer any gifts, meals, or any form of entertainment, or other gratuity to any of our employees. They are in sensitive positions and your adherence to this policy will assist them and enhance the integrity of the system.
