Whistleblowing Policy

 

Purpose and Scope

The purpose of this policy is to create a work environment characterised by professionalism, integrity, and respect, encompassing all the subcontractors, suppliers, stakeholders, employees, and directors, essentially the organisation at large.

To continue maintaining the highest standards of ethics, integrity, and accountability in all aspects of the company’s operations, we encourage everyone to report any concerns or suspicions regarding misconduct, unethical behaviour, or violations of laws, regulations, or company policies.

  • Names of the individuals involved.
  • Dates, times, and locations of the incidents.
  • Description of the misconduct, including specific actions, decisions, or communications.
  • The impact of the misconduct on the organisation or individuals involved.
  • Steps (if any) you took to address the issue before reporting it.
  • Attach supporting evidence, if there’s any.
  • Review and revise the report.

Before submitting your report, proofread it for clarity and accuracy.
