Access And Monitoring

Regarding the technological security and traceability of reporting, we chose to use a widely proven technology platform and already implemented for whistleblowing in other social environments characterized by high personal risks. An open source software that allows anonymous dialogue with the reporter, without any possibility for the receiver or other subjects to trace the source of the messages.

When sending the report a ticket will be issued that allows you to return to the portal and monitor the progress of the follow-up action.

Who Receives the Report

The task to handle with the reports is entrusted to the Internal Audit Manager of GIGC.
