Overview of the whistleblowing functionality and steps to take to customize your whistleblowing offerings to your customers
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 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.
By detecting and addressing problems early, you can mitigate risks like financial losses, reputational damage, and potential legal penalties. Clym's whistleblowing solution streamlines requests and provides your team with a mechanism to keep a detailed record of all communications.
