Whistleblowing

Service Description
Awards and Media
Team

Part of corporate compliance and an efficient tool to combat undesirable behaviour 

Whether you merely want to comply with whatever obligations legislation imposes on your organisation, or whether you wish to have a, based on statistics, very effective safeguard against fraud and corruption, our whistleblowing experts will deliver comprehensive and safe solutions.

We will help you retain control over the entire process and, at an early stage, conduct internal investigation of all reports so as to resolve an issue before it escalates. The risks associated with incorrect approach may be severe, in particular if the whistleblower, for example due to fear of retaliation, prefers to report their concern directly to a ministry, or worse, to the media. In such case, the organisation typically loses control over internal investigation and, apart from legal implications, it will also face reputational risks. 

In cooperation with FairData Professionals we can also provide and help to implement an independent and anonymous hotline, and deliver the services of the whistleblowing officer.

Our services in this respect typically include the following:

PREVENTION

  • Identification of risks and implementation of effective internal controls
  • Preparation of internal guidelines and rules
  • Configuration of processes
  • Implementation and management of an internal whistleblowing system
  • Training

INTERNAL INVESTIGATION

  • Conducting internal investigations and forensic audits
  • Advising on the protection and processing of personal data and IT security
  • Taking corrective action based on the investigation (termination of employment, drafting criminal information or applications to initiate administrative and/or disciplinary proceedings)
  • Legal assistance and protection in the event of suspected criminal activity
