Whistleblowing

Type of Report

Countering corruption and the improper use of public power is a civic duty to which everyone can contribute. Precisely for this reason, the legislator has provided specific forms of protection for the reporter, not contemplating the possibility of sending reports anonymously.

For this reason, the absolutely privileged form of reporting - which will be guaranteed priority treatment - is the so-called reporting. confidential, i.e. one in which the reporting person discloses his/her personal details which will in any case be treated with the guarantees provided by law (confidentiality, prohibition of access, protection against discriminatory acts possibly suffered...).
However, reports made anonymously (i.e. without indicating your personal details) will be taken into consideration only in particular cases and, in any case, will not be processed pursuant to art. 54-bis of Legislative Decree. 165/2001 and subsequent amendments. However, the reports, even if sent anonymously in the first instance, may subsequently be integrated with the personal details of the person making the report in order to acquire any form of legal protection, in addition to management priority. All reports, in compliance with the protection of the confidentiality of the identity of the reporter, may be sent to other institutions (judicial authority, public service department, court of auditors, etc.).
