Whistleblowing reports can be sent using the specific channels indicated below (available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in Italian and English version).
The report must allow the identification of the whistleblower (name and surname, relationship with the company and contact details) and must contain a detailed description of the facts and conduct considered to be in conflict with the law, also indicating, where possible, the documents, the rules that are considered to have been violated and the other findings useful for conducting the investigation of the disputed facts. Finally, the whistleblower has the obligation to declare whether she/he has a personal interest connected to the report.
