MORAL OBLIGATION

WHY BLOW THE WHISTLE?

People may consider whistleblowing as very intimidating and exaggerated. Whistleblowers are primarily afraid of possible retaliation or isolation in the workplace. But employees have an important role in tackling fraud and corruption in their organizations. Whistling is important for the following reasons:

  • Reporting can end fraudulent and corrupt behaviors
  • Fraud and corruption can cause serious damage to an organization
  • Reporting irregularities is crucial for further research

the EU whistleblowing directive

Under EU Directive (the European legislature adopted Directive 2019/1937 on the protection of persons who report infringements of Union law), companies and public administrations with more than 50 employees have to set up a channel for reporting abuses and infringements and regulate internal procedures for investigating applications and protecting applicants. The 27 European member states have to implement the directive into national law by the end of 2021.

The experience shows that fraud communication channels are an effective tool for achieving the compliance of companies. A global survey by the Association of Fraud Investigators for 2018 (Report to the Nations) shows that fraud reporting is the most effective mechanism for identifying them, as 40 percent of frauds are detected on the basis of such reports. Half of the messages were received from employees, while the rest were reported by customers, suppliers, partners and other stakeholders.

Whistleblower software is suitable also for companies and organizations that are not required by the applicable law.
