How to report?
INTERNAL REPORTING CHANNELS
The reports can be made by means of the specific IT tool Whistleblowing made available by Galli Data service Srl (Manager of the reporting channel), by clicking here.
The tool allows you to make reports in written form, with the upload of videos and photos, as well as through the request for a meeting with the manager of the report.
Who is the reporting manager?
The person responsible for receiving and managing reports is the Committee of Segnalazioni.Il Committee of Reports, may avail itself of the support of specifically authorized internal resources by means of a specific communication given in writing. In addition, in carrying out the investigation, the Whistleblowing Committee may be supported by the competent company organisational structures from time to time or by the external professionals appointed for this purpose.
THE EXTERNAL REPORTING CHANNEL AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE
The internal management channel is to be used as a priority.
Whistleblowers may use the external channel managed by ANAC, by connecting to the https://www.anticorruzione.it/-/whistleblowing website, exclusively in the following cases:
- the Company has not activated an internal reporting channel or this does not comply with Legislative Decree 24/2023;
- a report has already been made to the internal channel, but this has not been followed up;
- the whistleblower has a well-founded fear of believing that, if he uses the internal channel, he would not receive effective follow-up or could be subject to retaliation;
- the whistleblower has reasonable grounds to believe that the breach may constitute an imminent or obvious danger to the public interest.
Whistleblowers may also make public disclosure (press and other means of dissemination such as social networks), if one of the following conditions is met:
- the whistleblower has previously made an internal and external report or has directly made an external report and has not been given feedback within the established deadlines regarding the measures envisaged or adopted to follow up on the reports;
- the whistleblower has reasonable grounds to believe that the the breach may constitute an imminent or obvious danger to the public interest;
- the whistleblower has reasonable grounds to believe that the external report may involve the risk of retaliation or may not be effectively followed up due to the specific circumstances of the case, such as those in which evidence may be concealed or destroyed or where there is a well-founded fear that the person receiving the report may be colluding with or involved in the breach in the violation itself.
This is without prejudice to the possibility of reporting to the competent national judicial and accounting authorities.
In implementation of the above, Francesco Brizzolari Srl has adopted the “Whistleblowing Procedure”, which can be consulted here.
