Whistleblowers are individuals who report irregularities and abuses within an organisation. They are usually employees who are a key source of information about existing or potential problems.
Both private and public entities will be required to have internal solutions (whistleblowing systems) for reporting irregularities safely, confidentially or anonymously. Not only must safe whistleblowing channels be established, but also employees must be effectively made aware of how they work. Moreover, whistleblowing must be handled by an appropriate, independent and competent entity within the organisation and in accordance with legal regulations. This means that the whistleblower should receive feedback within set time limits and the employer must take follow-up measures (investigative and remedial) and keep a record of reports.
A whistleblowing system is, however, not only a legal obligation. If structured and promoted correctly, it can have a very positive impact on the quality of reports, and thus the safety of the organisation and management. Such system can also improve organisational culture. The platform ensures data security and confidentiality, but also facilitates the examination of reports.
