Whistleblowing

The principles of transparency and fairness within the corporate context of Terme di Chianciano are fundamental. For this reason, the company has adopted a specific procedure in order to regulate, and facilitate, any reports of violations that harm the public interest or the integrity of the company, protecting individuals who report violations of national or supranational regulatory provisions, of which they have become aware in the work context.
Whistleblowing was created for the prevention of certain offences and for the reporting of possible violations of the 231 Organisational Model. Legislative Decree No. 24 of 10 March 2023, transposing EU Directive 1937/2019 on “the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law” has made significant changes to the whistleblowing process by removing factors that could hinder and/or discourage whistleblowing.
The term whistleblower therefore refers to an employee who detects a possible fraud, danger or other risk that could harm colleagues, suppliers, the public, or the company's reputation, and reports it to the bodies empowered to intervene.
The purpose of the procedure, implementing Legislative Decree 24/2023, is to regulate the process of transmitting, receiving, analysing and managing Reports (so-called Whistleblowing) on information relating to violations of laws, company regulations, Code of Ethics, Organisational Model pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/01 and other company policies on transparency and fairness, providing the employee with operating instructions on how to make the report.
The addressees of the procedure are - top management, members of the corporate, control and supervisory bodies; employees, former employees, self-employed workers, collaborators, freelancers and consultants who work for the Company; - shareholders, customers, partners, suppliers of the Company; - volunteers and trainees; anyone who is in a relationship of interest with the Company.
