BDO Tipoffs vs Legality Whistleblowing

The BDO Tipoffs App offers employers an invaluable tool for their employees to report incidents of unacceptable behaviour within the organisation, with the guarantee of complete anonymity. Organisations that choose to participate in this highly effective whistleblower initiative are able to glean a unique insight into their business from the perspective of their own employees who are, on occasion, privy to incidents of theft, fraud, corruption, dishonesty or other forms of unacceptable behaviour committed by their fellow employees. Often these types of incidents will go unreported as employees are unwilling to run the risk of being identified as a whistleblower and face any possible consequences that may arise as a result. With the BDO Tipoff App, employees feel empowered to step-up and report issues like this, confident in the knowledge that their identity will remain 100% hidden eliminating any risk of reprisal. One of the other ways the App differentiates itself from traditional whistleblower hotlines is in its ability to allow users to easily attach photo or video evidence to a report to validate its authenticity. Experienced operators from BDO Forensic Services will provide administration and analysis of all incoming reports from the application and communicate anonymously with whistleblowers in real-time to gather accurate and essential information that can be provided to participating organisations allowing them to remedy situations at hand, minimise loss and mitigate future risk. The App is affordable, easy to deploy and simple to use. BDO’s strong deterrent effect alone will help to reduce unacceptable behaviour amongst staff who will be well aware of the Expose It system in use and the likelihood of being reported by whistleblowers.

The Legality Whistleblowing app is a secure channel that allows employees and suppliers to submit wrongdoing reports to any organization which has activated the software Legality Whistleblowing developed by DigitalPA S.r.l. High-security protocols, two-factor authentication, and the cryptographic system ensure reports submission take place with a guarantee of extreme confidentiality, in line with national and international regulations protecting the Whistleblower in full compliance with the GDPR (EU Regulation 679/2016). The App allows you to send written and voice reports, follow the processing status of the report and communicate with the Managers in charge of managing the report in respect of confidentiality. Legality Whistleblowing can be downloaded for free and you can access the reporting area by entering the QR Code that will be provided by the Organization to its employers and suppliers according to their convenience. Before submitting a report, please carefully read the Whistleblowing Policy and the Privacy Policy available in the App in the area dedicated to your Organization.
