whistleblowing
We ensure the receipt, management, analysis and processing of reports, including anonymous ones, in compliance with the provisions of Directive (EU) 2019/1937 and its implementing law, Legislative Decree 24/2023.
Definition
The term “Whistleblower” refers to the person who reports violations, irregularities or offenses committed to the detriment of the public and corporate interest to the bodies empowered to intervene.
Specifically, the violations that can be reported under the Legislative Decree 24/2023, the so-called ‘Whistleblowing Decree’, must relate to behaviours, acts or omissions that harm the public interest or the integrity of the company, of which the Whistleblower has become aware in the work context, pursuant to Article 3(2)(b), i.e:
1) unlawful conduct pursuant to Legislative Decree No. 231 of 8 June 2001, or violations of the organisation and management models provided for therein
2) violations of EU law (e.g. transport safety; environmental protection; consumer protection; protection of privacy and protection of personal data and security of networks and information systems; etc….).
Whistleblowing, in this perspective, is an act of manifestation of civic sense, through which the Whistleblower contributes to the emergence and prevention of risks and prejudicial situations.
Purpose
The main purpose of Whistleblowing is to prevent or solve a problem internally and promptly.
The strictest confidentiality is guaranteed regarding the subjects and facts reported, as well as on the identity of whistleblowers, so that whistleblowers are not subject to any form of retaliation.
Modalities
Reports can be sent through a special platform – suitable for guaranteeing, by computerised means, the confidentiality of the reporter’s identity – available at the following link:
Send a Report
This channel is considered preferential and suitable for guaranteeing the confidentiality of the reporter’s identity through computerised means.
Reports will be handled by the company Soluzioni Srl-Società Benefit, which provides staff and professionals with autonomy and specifically trained to handle reports.
Please note that, alternatively, it is also possible to send your report through the following channels:
- By calling nr. 320.5311894
- By sending reports or requesting an in-person meeting.
Reports, where relevant, may also be shared with the Data Controller’s Supervisory Board, in its capacity as Data Processing Authorised Officer pursuant to Article 29 GDPR and 2-quaterdecies of the Privacy Code and therefore subject to the same confidentiality obligations as those provided for the Reporting Manager
It is understood that the sharing of personal data will be limited to what is strictly necessary to ensure confidentiality.
Notwithstanding the preferential use of the reporting channels made available, in the cases strictly indicated pursuant to Article 6 of Legislative Decree 24 of March 10, 2023, it is also possible to make reports to the relevant authority (ANAC).
