Definition of Bribery in the Public Sector :

- Bribery in the public sector is a specific form of corruption that involves the
offering, promising, giving, soliciting, or receiving of an undue advantage by
or to a public official. This advantage, whether material or immaterial, is
intended to influence the actions or omissions of the official in the
performance of their duties. Bribery is an abuse of public power for
personal or external gain.

- The key element of bribery is the exchange of an undue advantage to alter


a public official’s behavior, either through action or inaction, that would not
typically be influenced by such an exchange. This undermines the integrity
of public service and breaches ethical standards.

- Corruption, in a broader sense, includes bribery as a major component, but


also involves practices such as favoritism, nepotism, and abuse of power,
which do not always include direct financial transactions. Corruption
undermines fairness, transparency, and trust within public institutions.

- International legal frameworks, including the United Nations Convention


Against Corruption (UNCAC), explicitly criminalize bribery due to its severe
impact on governance, the rule of law, and public confidence in institutions.
Bribery leads to a loss of trust in the legal system and creates barriers to
justice.
- Bribery can be offered in exchange for specific actions, such as granting
permits or favorable treatment, or to prevent officials from taking actions in
the public’s interest. Both active bribery (offering or giving) and passive
bribery (soliciting or accepting) are criminal offenses.

- Though bribery is the most well-known form of corruption, it is just one of


many unethical practices. Other forms of corruption, like cronyism and
favoritism, also harm the integrity of government institutions. Many
countries have adopted laws to combat bribery, but enforcement remains
challenging.

- Combating bribery requires comprehensive measures, including legal


reform, strong law enforcement, and public education on the importance of
transparency and accountability. By addressing bribery and corruption,
societies can preserve democratic values and ensure fair governance.
