An effective whistleblowing programme requires an organisation to enlist the support of its most important and powerful allies, its workforce
For most businesses fraud, corrupt or immoral practices represent a significant threat to profitability. Any malpractice, which can impact on profitability, is not an invisible phenomenon. It can threaten jobs whilst also having a negative impact on inward investment and recruitment.
A well-structured whistleblowing policy is essential in the fight against fraud, corrupt or immoral practices in the workplace. The power of such a policy lies in its ability to open the lines of communication with employees creating an interactive communication policy, more especially with an outsourced and anonymous 3rd party supplier.
According to the Association of Fraud Examiners, losses can be reduced by nearly 60% where a confidential hotline is present. In fact, fraud is discovered via these tips 40% of the time, making it the number one method of detection versus internal and routine audit procedures.
Confidential whistleblowing hotlines are not restricted to the fight against crime, corruption or immoral practices. In a climate of increasing health and safety legislation and liabilities, they can be used as part of a management systems framework for improving health and safety performance. Choosing to implement a confidential hotline within this framework ensures you stay on the right side of the law, protecting the business’s reputation, and maintaining the confidence of investors and clients.
We provide a unique confidential reporting hotline service with the expertise required to deliver a vital, impartial and confidential communication link for those employees wishing to provide confidential information anonymously and securely, and without fear of reprisal.
We provide:
- A freephone number 24/7, 365 days a year
- Personal unique service per customer
- Complete client confidentiality
- Caller reward or charity based systems
- Anonymity and confidentiality for callers
- Compliance with all the latest regulations
- Meaningful report based feedback
We are committed to not only delivering a communication and reporting provision, which handles information with care and discretion, but we will maximise the return on investment by implementing a system which will focus on both quality and simplicity.
