ON-DEMAND WEBINAR

How whistleblowers could be a valuable asset to your organisation, and why you should really encourage them

With the participation of Howard Whitton (The Ethicos Group), Mike Baker (The Ethicos Group), and Charles Boulo (Whispli)

It wasn’t so long ago that “whistleblower” was a negative term used to label someone who reported on wrongdoing involving their employer or a co-worker. Whistleblowers were often seen as disloyal, troublemakers, or worse.

That is no longer the case. Whistleblowers are increasingly being valued in Australian business as they play an important role in recognising and reporting violations of law, misconduct, and harm to consumers and the community.

This event is intended to assist organisations to recognise how it is in their best interests to comply with prevailing Whistleblower legislation, and to encourage and support those who report wrongdoing in good faith, by ensuring that whistleblowers are seen – in practice – as an integral asset in reducing risk, while maintaining an organisation’s integrity and business reputation.
