Personnel understand that there will be no reprisals for reporting adverse information, improper conduct, or circumvention of internal control activities. https://www.gao.gov/assets/80/76564.pdf The possibility of circumvention of internal control through the collusion of member of management or an employee with parties outside or inside the entity. Circumvention means evasion; collusion is fraudulent understanding. It involves collaboration between two or more persons for fraudulent purposes. https://auditinghelp.com/objective-of-an-audit-13622 A business will often give high-level personnel the ability to override internal controls for operational efficiency reasons, and internal controls can be circumvented through collusion. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/i/internalcontrols.asp |
