How to submit a whistleblowing case

Many companies across various industries value transparency, accountability, and trust to create a healthy and successful work environment. Even so, unethical behavior, misconduct, or illegal activities within an organization are still possible. Whistleblowing provides employees like you with a secure way to raise concerns about these types of activities without fear of retaliation.

Globally, regulations such as the EU Whistleblower Directive, the USA Dodd-Frank Act, and the UK Public Interest Disclosure Act, outline requirements for organizations to provide channels that employees can use to report activities, and processes for organizations to manage these cases.

If you find that an organization violates an existing regulation, you may submit a case to an organization to address the concern.

Submitting a new whistleblowing case is an easy 3-step process:

• Access the Compliance Center
• Access the whistleblowing settings
• Submit your whistleblowing case
