15 to 21 November
International Fraud Awareness Week takes place yearly during the third week of November. It encourages business leaders and employees to proactively take steps to minimise the impact of fraud by promoting anti-fraud awareness and education. Fraud awareness is critical at a time when organizations around the world lose an estimated 5 percent of their annual revenues to fraud.
The National Anti-Corruption Hotline for the Public Service is a South African government initiative. It ensures that all cases of alleged corruption are reported centrally and re-directed to the relevant departments/provincial administration for further attention.
To report acts of corruption or fraud, dial the toll-free number 0800 701 701 or SMS 39772.
