One can report irregularities in their work internally or externally. Internal reporting If it is not a big matter and an employee feels comfortable talking about it, he or she can start by speaking with their manager or HR department. For more significant matters and/ or in cases of information being neglected by a supervisor, employees can choose to use an internal reporting hotline, if provided by their company. Companies should encourage employees and partners to use this reporting method instead of resorting to external entities. External reporting In the absence of actions from the company, an employee can contact a trade union or professional association. Alternatively, if the case calls for that, employees can send a report to an external whistleblowing hotline provided by a government body established by the country's authority.
