WHISTLEBLOWING - INTERNAL REPORTING CHANNEL
The recipients of the 231 Model, third parties, and, in general, all stakeholders having relations or carrying out business with the Company, are obliged to promptly send to the Company, using the channel deemed most appropriate: - substantiated reports of unlawful conduct, relevant under Legislative Decree 231/2001, and based on precise and consistent facts, or of violations of the organisation and management model of the company, of which they have become aware by reason of the tasks they perform or their relations with the Company; - other actions, conduct or events that may lead to the committing of unlawful acts, or in any case to the violation of rules, regulations and other provisions of the law or prescriptions of the competent Authorities; - any other violation of company procedures or regulations, including violations of the Code of Ethics or Model 231.
Several channels can be used for reporting, namely: paper mail or e-mail, verbal reports through face-to-face meetings, and the use of the alternative online channel that allows for both written and voice-recorded reports, while guaranteeing the confidentiality of the reporter's (whistleblower's) identity.
SAVE has indeed implemented an alternative channel for handling whistleblowing reports (the 'internal reporting channel'), which, by using computerised means, guarantees the confidentiality of the whistleblower's identity in accordance with current regulations and good market practice.
The alternative channel for handling reports is operated on a service independent of the company's IT systems, and allows the whistleblower to interact with the company confidentially, obtaining the statutory responses; it also allows whistleblowers to transmit verbal reports by voice recording.
The alternative channel for handling reports is consistent with the requirements of the law and the GDPR as regards protecting the identity of the reporter and the confidentiality of the transmission of information, which is also protected by encryption.
