Conference Description:
This webinar will help you understand the significant differences within the EU member states in relation to the way in which ethical/whistleblower hotlines can be implemented within a multinational organization.
Why Should You Attend:
The increase in laws that require businesses to encourage employees to report suspected breaches of laws and regulations and to comply with business codes of conduct mean that ethical reporting and whistleblower hotlines are a business norm. However a “one size fits all” approach to implementation does not work and many businesses have suffered investigations, audits, fines and even litigation in the EU because they have failed to recognize the different approaches to compliance in the various EU member states.
While Codes of Conduct or Codes of Ethics usually require staff and contractors to report issues or concerns that may relate to fraud, bribery, and other similar events in the workplace, in the EU there are data protection and related laws and regulations that may be in direct conflict with such reporting or disclosure.
This 60-minute presentation will help you understand the significant differences within the EU member states in relation to the way in which ethical/whistleblower hotlines can be implemented within a multinational organization.
