A safe working and reporting environment is crucial. Everyone must feel free to report suspected wrongdoing. This contributes to a pleasant and integer working environment.
Within EP NL we have taken measures that reduce the chance of incidents and reduce risks.
By intervening in a timely manner in the event of (suspected) wrongdoing, escalation, conflicts and illness can be prevented.
The Whistleblowers Policy explains what to do in case of (suspected) wrongdoing. The policy describes how the procedure works, but also what rights and obligations each person has in the process.
This Policy explains:
- what constitutes wrongdoing;
- when wrongdoing can be reported;
- to whom advice can be requested;
- to whom it can be reported;
- what the process looks like for internal and/or external reporting; and
- what the protection against prejudice for reporters, advisors and others involved entails.
