The creation of a suitable Report Channel should enable employees, customers, suppliers and other interested parties to report suspected irregularities and, at the same time, ensure the anonymity of the whistleblowers and the internal resolution of the infraction.
Compliance with the legal obligations of entities (public and private) has proved to be a challenge, as resistance to change, lack of resources and bureaucratic complexity are some of the difficulties highlighted in its implementation and effectiveness. It is not enough to draw a PRR (Risk of Corruption Prevention Plan) and publish it online for this to happen, there are other steps in this process so we achieve legal compliance and the best results.
inCentea, in partnership with DCM | Littler and NAVEX will host a GRPC (General Regime for the Prevention of Corruption) webinar: "Whistleblowing Channel - The steps to follow", on the 29th of March, which demonstrates how to define the correct structure of the Whistleblowing Channel in your organization.
What we will talk about in this webinar:
- Whistleblowing Best pratices
