What is the ruling on an employee selling goods to some customers without offering discounts, then informing the company that he did offer them discounts, in order to use the amount of these supposed discounts to cover price differences or achieve his required sales targets? What is the ruling on him taking amounts from these supposed discounts to give to other customers so they can complete the receipt of goods? Is this action considered unlawful and bribery? And what should he do if this action is unlawful and abandoning it would cause him harm?

You are not permitted to violate the terms of your company’s authorization by selling goods to customers at a price lower than what was set for you, or without the specified offers. This is because you are an entrusted agent, and your violation of these terms incurs liability for damages. Lying to the company is forbidden (haram).

Regarding bribery: if it is for the purpose of averting harm and securing a right, then it is permissible for you [to give] but forbidden (haram) for the recipient. You may pay it from your own money if employees will not deliver the goods without it, and there is no valid reason for refusing to accept delivery. However, you are not permitted to dispose of the company’s funds or offers without its authorization.

Therefore, you must be forthright with the company’s management about the situation and adhere to what the company has authorized you to do, or else seek other employment.
