Nolato’s whistleblowing function

Acting ethically and taking action to prevent impropriety is a key part of Nolato’s culture. One aspect of this work is Nolato’s whistleblowing function, which enables someone to raise the alarm about suspected breaches of law or serious violations of Nolato’s Code of Conduct, without the risk of being subject to any form of reprisal.

Irregularities should first of all be reported to the management team or senior manager of the relevant unit. But if this is not appropriate or does not work, you can use our internal whistleblowing function on this page. You can make a report securely and in confidence here to an independent recipient who is bound by secrecy.

Questions and answers about Nolato’s whistleblowing function

Who can use the function? Anyone who has obtained information in a work-related context about irregularities, breaches of law or serious violations of Nolato’s Code of Conduct.

Do I have to be employed by Nolato? No, the right to use the function extends to anyone who was employed or seeking work at Nolato, carried out work for Nolato or was professionally engaged at Nolato in another way (e.g. as a trainee, agency worker, consultant, contractor or supplier) when they obtained the information about the irregularity, breach of law or serious violation of the Code of Conduct. 

As a whistleblower, am I protected? Yes. Nolato complies with the EU Directive on the protection of persons who report irregularities (2019/1937). All whistleblower reports are handled in a secure system by an independent person bound by secrecy to protect the whistleblower from the risk of being harassed or opposed due to their whistleblowing.

What can I make a report about? You can report irregularities at Nolato, such as breaches of law or serious violations of Nolato’s Code of Conduct. You do not have to be certain that what you are reporting is true, but you must have good reason to believe in the accuracy of what you are reporting. If you knowingly report false information or unfounded rumours, you will not be covered by the legal protection for whistleblowers and Nolato may take action against you under employment law.

What can I not report? Dissatisfaction solely about your own work or employment situation does not usually constitute grounds for whistleblowing, nor do disputes or complaints about the workplace, work environment or management if they do not relate to breaches of law or serious violations of Nolato’s Code of Conduct.
