Whistleblowing is a term used when an employee or other stakeholder reports wrongdoing which usually is something an employee or external party has witnessed concerning the company. In this policy, we call that “making a disclosure”. A whistleblower is a person who reports certain types of wrongdoing specified below:
Clevry employees and external parties can disclose wrongdoing if they believe that one or more of the above matters is happening or think it is likely to occur shortly. Disclosure of wrongdoing should be made in the public interest and good faith.
Any personal grievances and complaints should not be raised through the whistleblowing channel.
Any employee or external party can disclose Clevry’s Whistleblowing channel.
Disclosures can be made entirely anonymously through our whistleblowing channel. Anonymous and confidential reporting will only be reported to the dedicated Clevry whistleblowing team.
Reported incidents are handled within three months of the reporting date. Please note that if you report an incident through Clevry’s whistleblowing channel, you can only receive feedback if you have filled in your name and contact details on the form. Anonymous whistleblowers will not be able to receive feedback, and any actions taken to look into a disclosure could be limited.
All disclosures raised will be dealt with appropriately, consistently, fairly, and professionally.
The whistleblower’s disclosure will not affect their position or relationship with Clevry. EU Directive 2019/1937 protects the person reporting this type of incident.
